Belal Muhammad Slams Sean Strickland Following UFC 312 Defeat

UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad has not held back in his criticism of Sean Strickland’s recent performance at UFC 312. Following Strickland’s unanimous decision loss to middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis, Muhammad took the opportunity to share his unfiltered opinions.

Muhammad, who has had previous social media exchanges with Strickland, didn’t mince words when discussing the fight. He stated, “I’ve always maintained that Sean is subpar. He talks a big game but fails to deliver. His fighting style is timid and defensive, contrary to his bold claims about being willing to bleed for his fans.”

The welterweight champion went on to describe Strickland’s performance as that of “a scared little girl,” criticizing his lack of aggression even when behind on the scorecards. Muhammad also accused Strickland of putting on a show of bravado only in the final moments of fights to create highlight-reel moments.

Muhammad further commented on Strickland’s character, calling him “a racist little clown hiding in a fighter’s body” and “a coward who reveals his true nature in the octagon.”

Addressing potential excuses Strickland might make for his performance, Muhammad sarcastically mimicked what he believed Strickland might say about having staph infection or a broken nose. He dismissed these as pre-planned justifications for a poor showing.

In conclusion, Muhammad expressed satisfaction that Strickland would no longer receive “undeserved title shots” following this defeat. The comments reflect the ongoing tension between the two fighters and Muhammad’s strong opinions on Strickland’s abilities and character.
