Fans are impressed with Belal Muhammad's physique ahead of UFC 304.
On July 27, Muhammad has a life-changing opportunity to dethrone Leon Edwards and become the UFC welterweight champion. Heading into the UFC 304 main event, 'Remember The Name' has won 10 consecutive fights, including a unanimous decision against Gilbert Burns last time out in May 2023.
Since defeating Burns, Muhammad patiently waited for the UFC to solidify his matchup against Edwards. Therefore, the 36-year-old will ensure he's more prepared for UFC 304 than any other fight.
'Remember The Name' posted a photo on Instagram of him looking shredded while preparing for Edwards. Fans took to the comment section and praised Muhammad, including the following people saying:

Belal Muhammad will face the toughest test of his UFC tenure on July 27. Leon Edwards is coming off 12 consecutive wins, including the last three for the UFC welterweight world title. 'Rocky' now looks to further his legacy by taking out Muhammad and silencing any remaining doubters.

Belal Muhammad has established an impressive resume inside the Octagon, including wins against Gilbert Burns, Sean Brasy, Vicente Luque, Stephen 'Wonderboy' Thompson, and Demian Maia. With that said, Muhammad has been overlooked and underestimated by the MMA community.
At UFC 304, 'Remember The Name' could counter the disrespect from fans by etching his name into UFC history. The doubters will continue to linger, but a win against Leon Edwards would prove he's the best welterweight on the planet.
Muhammad and Edwards aren't the only fighters looking to make a statement at UFC 304. In the co-main event, interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall will surprisingly defend his throne against Curtis Blaydes in a rematch. They first fought in July 2022 when Aspinall suffered a knee injury in 15 seconds.
The July 7 pay-per-view main card features Arnold Allen vs Giga Chikadze (featherweight), Muhammad Mokaev vs Manel Kape (flyweight), and Bobby Green vs Paddy Pimblett (lightweight).
