Earlier today, the No.4-ranked UFC welterweight contender Belal Muhammad went after Conor McGregor on Twitter by making fun of the Irishman's unimpressive record in recent years.

'Remember the Name' posted a picture on Twitter stating that the Irishman has registered just one win since 2016, while Muhammad has had his hand raised 12 times.

Muhammad has been on a tear lately. He is currently on a 9-fight win streak, which includes one no contest, and took out highly touted prospect Sean Brady via second-round TKO in his latest fight at UFC 280.

The 34-year-old also holds wins against several high-profile fighters, including former UFC title challengers Stephen 'Wonderboy' Thompson and Demian Maia, and the No.9-ranked welterweight contender Vicente Luque.

Conor McGregor, on the other hand, has been out of action since his leg break during his trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. The Irishman's UFC 246 win against Donald Cerrone is the only combat sports victory of McGregor's career since 2016.

However, McGregor is a former UFC two-division champion. In fact, he was the first simultaneous two-division champion in the promotion's history. 'Remember the Name', on the other hand, is yet to win a UFC championship.


Conor McGregor needs to undergo six months of mandatory USADA testing before returning to the UFC

UFC's biggest draw Conor McGregor has been out of action since suffering a leg injury at UFC 264 in July 2021, and it looks like MMA fans will have to wait at least six more months before they can expect the return of the sport's biggest star.

In the post-fight press conference for UFC 280, UFC President Dana White confirmed that 'The Notorious' will have to undergo six months of mandatory drug testing by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) before stepping back into the UFC octagon.

According to ufc.usada.org, McGregor has not been drug tested since the fourth quarter of 2021. However, even excluding the fourth quarter, the Irishman was one of the most drug-tested UFC athletes in 2021 with a total of 11 tests.
