A rematch between Vicente Luque and Belal Muhammad will headline this Saturday’s UFC Fight Night, as both men look to edge closer to a welterweight title shot.
In 2016, Luque knocked out Muhammad early in the first round, with the Brazilian then winning 10 of his 12 subsequent contests. Luque, 30, enters this rematch on the back of a four-fight win streak, having secured stoppages in each of those bouts.
Meanwhile, 33-year-old Muhammad has won his last six fights – minus a No Contest against Leon Edwards – with his last four outings going the distance.
The American (20-3, 1 No Contest), ranked sixth at 170lbs, will be keen to leapfrog No 5 Luque (21-7-1) in the welterweight division this weekend, while avenging his loss to the Brazilian.
