Does Belal Muhammad have a wife?

UFC 236 Holloway v Poirier 2
UFC 236 Holloway v Poirier 2 - Belal Muhammad

Belal Muhammad is one of the top welterweights in the UFC. The American is very secretive about his private life and keeps his personal matters out of the limelight as much as possible.

He has not revealed information about any prior girlfriends, and has not been linked to any woman. 'Remember The Name' is not married. Whether he has a girlfriend remains a mystery.

The American is set to fight in the UFC's return to Fight Island in Abu Dhabi for UFC 280. Muhammad will face #8 ranked Sean Brady on October 22 to make his way up the ranks, and eventually make his way to a title shot. The division is stacked with talent, with many other fighters in line to challenge the newly crowned champion Leon Edwards.

In order to challenge for the title, Belal Muhammad will have to make his way through the likes of Gilbert Burns, Khamzat Chimaev, Colby Covington, and former champion Kamaru Usman. It's a feat that sounds almost impossible with the form all these fighters are currently in. For Muhammad, the road to gold is hard, but the American believes he has what it takes to become champion.


Belal Muhammad feels invincible with Khabib Nurmagomedov in his corner

Belal Muhammad believes he cannot lose to former UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagommedov in his corner. The American trained with Nurmagomedov in preparation for this fight. In an interview with MMA Junkie, he spoke about how he was presented with the offer, and how honored he is to have 'The Eagle' in his corner for his fight:

"In between rounds, he'll come to your corner, 'Hey do this, this, and this' and just seeing his knowledge and his view, I'm like, 'Dude this guy's a genius and he's good.'"

He added:

"I brought it up to them [Khabib Nurmagomedov working in his corner] and he's like, 'Yeah of course' and then Ali called me and he's like, 'Khabib's gonna be in your corner, like you know he just doesn't corner anybody'... And I was like, 'Man that's an amazing thing' and yeah with Khabib in my corner, I can't lose."

Belal Muhammad will look to replicate the luck Islam Makhachev has had with Khabib Nurmagomedov in his corner. Ever since retiring from the sport, Nurmagomedov has switched to coaching upcoming fighters in MMA.
