Belal
Muhammad (24-4) and Ian Garry
(16-1) could be on a collision course.

Garry recently called out Muhammad, vowing to box his ears off. The
Irishman also warned Muhammad against striking with him like he did
in his title loss against Jack
Della Maddalena.

“I am going to box the ears off you because I’m the best in this
division, hands down,” Garry said on social media. “Belal, learn
from your last loss and never ever ever try and stand and bang with
me.”

Muhammad wasted no time in replying, proposing a fight at the

UFC’s annual card at Madison Square Garden in the fall.

“I’ll see you at MSG,” Muhammad wrote on X.

Garry suffered his lone pro career loss in what was essentially a
title eliminator against Shavkat
Rakhmonov last year. However, Rakhmonov was unable to accept a
title fight due to an injury, and the opportunity went to
Australia’s Maddalena. Garry expressed his disappointment with the
title shot snub, as he considered himself the next eligible
contender. Maddalena went on to dethrone “Remember the Name” in an
upset at UFC 315
last month. 

Meanwhile, Garry has since rebounded by derailing the hype train of
Brazilian finishing machine Carlos
Prates this past April. UFC CEO Dana White has confirmed that
former lightweight champ Islam
Makhachev will challenge Maddalena for the welterweight title
next. The winner of a potential fight between Muhammad and “The
Future” could certainly be in contention after that, though
Rakhmonov still waits in the wings.
