Belal on the Reason Behind ufc Reluctance to Pit Shavkat Against Kamaru Usman

[payton]

“Usman beats him, it’s [the UFC is] like ‘we just lost the undefeated guy, new blood and we just have Usman back in the mix again who was just the reigning champion for five years.’
So I think they want new blood in general, so I think that’s why they would probably want to give me Shavkat next,” he said. And the Kazakh, according to Muhammad, would be a much more favorable matchup for him."


“And I mean, I’m gladly willing to do it, right, because for me honestly, I would think that Usman’s a tougher fight because when I look at Shavkat, I see a lot of holes and I see paths to victory,”

Usman back in the mix after being beaten definitively by the previous champ years ago, and not fighting at WW since then.

Shavkat is the next contender. Shouldn't even be a discussion. Usman should be taking fun fights, not wasting contenders time.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Shavkat goes full Geghis Khan on shopworn Usman.

Marty should call for Colbi trilogy so both can keep rank squatting.

 

[Trabaho]

Belal is lying and pretending to get a easier match up. Shavkat is gonna decimate him. He hopes Usman can injure Shavkat and that he gets to fight him on only 2 months from a Usman fight. And to stay champ for half a year before risking vs Shavkat.

 

[chinarice]

Usman belongs nowhere near a titleshot.

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

Belal is so desperate to get 0-3 Usman back into the title picture, it makes no sense orger than being afraid of Shavkat.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

Clearly trying to duck Shavkat.

Lame.

 

[Morning Star]

Usman has lost 3 in a row (albeit 1 he was 1 minute away from winning and 2 were close decisions). Usman needs a bounce back type of fight not an undefeated absolute killer. I find it strange Belal who said he's going to be a different champ and fight the best keeps bringing up Usman. Get ready for Shavkat he's clearly next, you're not Jon Jones you don't get to duck the top guys in your division.

 

[Deleted member 513083]

I was always defending Belal but now he turned into one of the other fucking dipshits.
You know how it is to get denied for what you deserve and now you want Shavkat to fight Usman first???
You want a Usman fight or what?

Fucking hell Belal akhi I am a bit dissapointed.

 

[blaseblase]

Belol is desperate to duck Shavkat

He literally called him out right after he won the title. There is no evidence of this, stop trying to push this lame narrative, weirdos.

Belal really coming across like he's scared of Shavkat.

In no world does Usman deserve a no. 1 contender fight v Shavkat

Really making Belal look like a bitch to be honest

Ok, then prove it and stop trying to duck him.

 

[HolmeZy55]

Belal sounds fucking petrified, the UFC wants Shavkat next because of two reasons, firstly he is rightfully next in line and secondly they know he is going to whoop Belal's boring arse and get him off the throne.

 

[Pointy12-6Elbows]

Shavkat is gonna bang Belal the fuck out.

Muhammad is getting finished. No wonder he’s tryna get bad knees Usman.

Why is the guy with no knees and on a three fight losing streak, not in the mix for a title shot? Complete mystery.

 

[Pechan]

Why the fuck is he matchmaking the #1 contender? Say what you will about Izzy but he would had called Shavkat out while the goof was wrapping the belt around him.

 

[blaseblase]

He then proceeded to quickly decline a fight with Shavkat that was offered, weirdo.

Belal literally days after winning the title: I want to fight Shavkat. I won't be ready by October so probably in November or December.

Then a month later Shavkat is crying about Belal not accepting a fight in October? Get fucked. He's the champion, he called you out, and he told you specifically when he would be ready to fight.

Oh look everyone it's @AldoStillGoat alt account.. He's gotta post daily to meet the terms of his contract with Usman's manager Abdelaziz...

 

[JoeRowe]

I wish this division would just get moving. Take Colby & Usman out of the rankings if they aren't willing to fight Gsrry & JDM.

Belal vs Shavkat
JDM vs Garry

Same card(DEC or JAN PPV), winners fight in the spring/summer.

 

[Khaosan]

Belal is trying his absolute hardest to do anything but fight Shavkat. He’s trying to feed the next guy in line to an 0-3 guy, you can’t make this shit up lmao.
