UFC 288 video: Belal Muhammad vs. Gilbert Burns final faceoff for No. 1 contender fight

NEWARK, N.J. – A massive co-main event clash is just one sleep away after Belal Muhammad and Gilbert Burns had their final pre-fight staredown at UFC 288 ceremonial weigh-ins.

After making weight on Friday morning after accepting the bout on just 16 days’ notice, Muhammad (22-3 MMA, 13-3 UFC) and Burns (22-5 MMA, 15-5 UFC) had a final faceoff ahead of their likely title eliminator, which takes place Saturday at Prudential Center and airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.

Watch the video of the Muhammad vs. Burns faceoff from UFC 288 ceremonial weigh-ins above.
