Coach Louis Taylor on Belal Muhammad's new goal: "Get up there next to GSP"
Belal Muhammad has been fighting in the UFC for over eight years now. Muhammad has been on an incredible run from 2019 onwards. 'Remember the name' has won 10 of his last 11 fights, the only contest he didn't get his hand raised in was his first fight with Leon Edwards which ended in a no contest.
During a conversation with Parry Punch, Louis Taylor, who coaches Muhammad, said the 36-year-old welterweight champion is eyeing a place among the welterweight elite:
"Belal wants to prove to the world that he’s one of the greatest, if not the greatest, welterweight of all time. That is his new goal. His first goal was to be the UFC welterweight champion. Checkmate, done. His next goal is to climb that ladder and prove to all the haters he is a GOAT at that weight class. He's all in at making that path happen."
Taylor added:
"He wants to pass up [Kamaru] Usman, he wants to pass up Matt Hughes, and potentially even get up there next to [Georges St-Pierre] and to tell the world this information, it’s just more hate finna come, but that’s his goals."
