Belal Muhammad Reacts To Dana White's MMA Mount Rushmore

UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad has given his amusing reaction to Dana White's Mount Rushmore of mixed martial arts.

We all know that Dana White is a very opinionated man. We also know that he isn't afraid to ruffle some feathers if he deems it to be necessary. With that being said, he made some more noise recently when deciding on who he would put on his MMA Mount Rushmore.

His selections were Jon Jones, Georges St-Pierre, Ronda Rousey and Conor McGregor. The latter two, of course, are likely more down to star power as opposed to total body of work. McGregor, especially, is best known for his meteoric rise that really put the sport on the map in a global way.

White has always been a big fan of Conor and that much is clear. Alas, there are some folks out there who don't rate him quite as highly – and that includes aforementioned UFC welterweight king Belal Muhammad.

In a short and sweet tweet, Muhammad replaced Conor with himself and simply put: "thanks boss".

Belal Muhammad Jokes With Dana White

For Dana White, you have to wonder what his plans are going to be going forward when it comes to the welterweight division. Belal Muhammad is the deserving champion at 170 pounds but with that being said, there is an embarrassment of riches when it comes to possible contenders for his crown.

Muhammad has said that he's willing to take on just about anyone that steps in his way. White will be pretty happy to hear that, especially with names like Shavkat Rakhmonov and Kamaru Usman being floated around.

Of course, there's always a chance that Leon Edwards receives an immediate rematch for the belt he lost, but the convincing nature of his defeat leaves us uncertain on that one.
