Sean Strickland didn’t hold back as he gave his uncensored thoughts on Belal Muhammad in a recent interview.

The middleweight title contender appears to rub up almost everyone he meets the wrong way. He is preparing for a rematch of last year’s grudge with Dricus Du Plessis for the belt at UFC 312 next week, but even that hasn’t stopped his feuding with other fighters across the sport.

One of Strickland’s most hilarious beefs is with welterweight champion Muhammad. The pair have gone back-and-forth for years, with the 170lb title holder seemingly coming out the worse at least in their recorded interactions

During a chat with The Schmo about his upcoming trip to Australia, Sean Strickland ended up being drawn into a conversation about Belal Muhammad. As usual, he dismissed his rival before launching into an expletive-laden diatribe, the majority of which was censored in the video.

“Listen about the f***ing Belal Muhammad,” Strickland began. “Where’s he from? F***ing Miami or Detroit?” When Schmo noted that he was from Chicago, the former champion continued: “Belal, do me a favor and shut the f*** up.

“Go get on a boat, go back to f***ing Palestine, go pick up a rock and go f***ing do something. I’m so sick of hearing you on the f***ing Twitter just talking s***.

“Every time I f***ing see you bro you have your head down like a f***ing little girl. You’re saying you want to fight me or you want to dry hump me? You’re ****** ******, get out of here.”

Belal Muhammad is not too fond of Sean Strickland either

Despite having myriad challengers available to him at 170lb, Muhammad seems to be keen on facing Strickland at some point. He told Submission Radio in a recent interview that he would be willing to come up in weight for a one-off grudge fight with the former champion, whether he beats Du Plessis or not.

“I would love to fight Sean,” Muhammad said in his own heated interview. “It doesn’t even have to be a belt on the line, I’d just fight him just to fight him at 185lb, that would be the fight I’d want at 185. I’d slap him around.

“I’d literally go in there and I’d slap him around. When I think of tough fights, Sean’s not one of them,, I think it would be an easy fight for me. He beats a lot of guys with cardio; I have better cardio than him. He beats a lot of guys with jabs. I have better boxing than him.”
