UFC welterweight fighters Belal Muhammad and Kamaru Usman often take digs at each other. The current welterweight champion Belal went to the extent of taking shots at the Nigerian fighter for his minor role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. “The Nigerian Nightmare” was quick to hit back at the criticism he got for his role from Belal. Now fans are anticipating a welterweight title between the two fighters.
Usman and Belal constantly take digs at each other
The feud between Belal Muhammad and Kamaru Usman started with Kamaru commenting on a video in which Islam Makhachev was seen telling “Remember the name” how to hold the belt.
This rivalry got interesting when Belal Muhammad went on to roast Kamaru Usman for his role in Marvel’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever movie. “The Nigerian Nightmare” got the role of a naval officer in the movie. Usman got a lot of popularity for his breakout role in such a major film. However, Bully B probably didn’t like it. Belal Muhammad listed several things about Usman that he disapproved of, and his role in the Black Panther movie was one of them.
Belal wrote, “Your Part in Black Panther sucked.” He also stated how unimpressive Kamaru Usman’s wins over Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington were. When the former UFC welterweight champion claimed that he dominated the division, Bully B refused to acknowledge this and wrote, “You were protected by the UFC.”
Belal roasted Usman for his role
Kamaru Usman quickly responded and wrote, “Glad you watched me in Black Panther.” The Nigerian Nightmare mocked Bully B by saying that no one wants to see him fight, let alone cast him in a movie. Belal didn’t hold back and quickly responded to Usman’s comments. “You were a background character in a movie about fighting. They must have seen your striking and decided no fight scenes,” wrote Belal Muhammad.

Earlier, Kamaru Usman claimed that “Remember the name” copied his blueprint to defeat Leon Edwards. However, Usman suffered two consecutive defeats to Leon Edwards, while Belal defeated “Rocky” and won the title. After successfully dethroning Leon Edwards, Bully B claimed that he is expected to face either Kamaru Usman or Shavkat Rakhmonov. Given their online feud, the matchup between Usman and Muhammad sounds quite exciting.
