Popular adult film actor Kendra Lust has shown her interest in many sports to remain in the headlines. This time, Lust has opined about UFC star Belal Muhammad, who is looking for a title shot against welterweight champion Leon Edwards. Lust also co-hosts a podcast with UFC middleweight star Julian Marquez.
Recently, Jason Anik, brother of UFC announcer Jon Anik, urged Muhammad to have the next opportunity to compete for the welterweight belt, citing “Remember the Name’s nine-fight winning streak, he said:
“What else does @bullyb170 need to do? Countless championship opportunities have been afforded to fighters with resumes that pale in comparison to Belal’s.”
The adult celebrity highlighted Henry Cejudo as an example, saying that he leveraged his persona as the “King of Cringe” to become famous from a position comparable to Muhammad’s.
“Crazy he hasn’t yet .. but it about who is selling ppv’s and tickets. I think Cejudo had similar issues but then used social media to become King of cringe and it worked for him.”
Who will Leon Edwards fight next?
Meanwhile, at UFC 286 on Sunday, Edwards successfully defended his welterweight title with a convincing victory over Kamaru Usman by majority decision. During the post-fight news conference, Dana White named Colby Covington, the event’s unexpected backup fighter, as the new title contender.
Numerous people, including UFC analyst Jon Anik, have publicly expressed their regret for Belal Muhammad’s title snub. White also revealed his intentions to reward Muhammad for his nine-bout winning streak with a battle against Shavkat Rakhmonov, one of the division’s contenders who is currently on the rise.
Belal Muhammad will probably need to pass one more test before he can compete for the UFC gold, and Colby Covington also has a chance, but he can’t be too sure about it. Edwards blatantly ignored the possibility of a fight with “Chaos” in favour of a rematch with Jorge Masvidal.
