Belal Muhammad spoke with MMAjunkie ahead of his fight against Geoff Neal at UFC on ESPN+ 1. Highlights are below:
On being the first fight on the card: “It’s the first ESPN card – they need to hype it up, so they put me first to get the fans watching. I’m not one of those kind of thinkers that’s like, ‘Oh, why this? Why that?’ I mean, you don’t get extra money unless you’re main event. So it doesn’t matter to me where I’m at.”
On the added bonus of fighting first: “I’m glad to get in and get out and watch the rest of the card.”
