Belal Muhammad recently had fans doubled over with laughter as he shared an edited direct message exchange between himself and UFC President Dana White. The playful exchange between the two revolves around what initially seems like a serious message from Dana, hinting at a title shot for 'Bully.'
The conversation appeared to start with Dana White hinting at a title shot opportunity for Belal Muhammad, however, it swiftly shifted to a lighthearted challenge when White invited 'Bully' to an online Madden game.
One fan, evidently amused by the exchange, quipped:

"Belal wins the Madden game by decision,"
However, some fans couldn't help but question the authenticity of the screenshot, with one fan hilariously commenting:
"No way that’s real ☠️☠️."
Another fan, equally skeptical of Dana White's gaming prowess, wrote:
"No way Dana gets on the sticks 😂."
While the humorous exchange provided entertainment for fans, it also stirred up speculation about Muhammad's next opponent. One fan chimed in, suggesting:
"You're next to fight Shavkat he means,"
hinting at a possible matchup with fellow welterweight Shavkat Rakhmonov.

While the banter between Muhammad and White was all in good fun, it also highlighted Belal Muhammad's desire for a shot at the welterweight title. Currently, on a nine-fight winning streak, Muhammad has consistently expressed his ambition to compete for the welterweight championship. Despite his impressive record of 23 wins and ranking at No.3-ranked in the division, the promotion has yet to confirm his title shot.
