Belal Muhammad Gears Up for Crucial Bout Against Ian Machado Garry After Title Loss

Following his recent title loss, former UFC Welterweight Champion Belal Muhammad is scheduled to compete against a lower-ranked opponent once again.

Muhammad`s path to the welterweight championship was a long and arduous one, culminating in his victory over Leon Edwards last year, following an impressive 10-fight undefeated run.

However, his reign as champion was brief. He lost the title to Jack Della Maddalena in his very first defense, headlining UFC 315 in May.

The 37-year-old Muhammad disputed the decision, but as the former #1 contender, he understands the necessity of securing another victory to re-establish his claim for the 170-pound title.

For his comeback bout, `Remember The Name` will encounter a well-known figure within the welterweight division.

Belal Muhammad to Co-Headline UFC Qatar Against Ian Machado Garry

UFC CEO Dana White recently revealed a pivotal double-header for a UFC Fight Night event slated for Doha, Qatar. The main event will feature a lightweight clash between #1 contender Arman Tsarukyan and Dan Hooker.

Muhammad is scheduled to co-headline the Qatar event on November 22nd, facing the #7-ranked welterweight, Ian Machado Garry. The venue for this event is the ABHA Arena.

Machado Garry, holding a professional record of 16-1, recently bounced back from his initial career loss against Shavkat Rakhmonov, securing a five-round main event victory over Carlos Prates in April.

Muhammad boasts an impressive UFC record of 12 wins, 2 losses, and 1 No Contest in his last 15 bouts.

Sean Brady Expressed Interest in Fighting Both Muhammad and Machado Garry

One can only speculate about Sean Brady`s reaction to the announcement of the Muhammad vs. Machado Garry fight.

After his submission victory over Leon Edwards at UFC London, the #2-ranked welterweight contender repeatedly stated his readiness to face either Muhammad or Machado Garry.

Consequently, Brady currently remains without an opponent.

Brady had hoped to compete against Muhammad, Machado Garry, or Shavkat Rakhmonov at UFC 322 on November 15th, with the aim of positioning himself for a title eliminator against the winner of the main event between Jack Della Maddalena and Islam Makhachev.

Sean Brady`s professional record stands at 18-1, with his sole defeat coming at the hands of Belal Muhammad.
