Regardless of what happens next, Belal Muhammad thinks he’s earned a big fight. Muhammad (18-3 MMA, 9-3 UFC) had a massive opportunity to catapult himself into title contention when he stepped in to face Leon Edwards in the main event of UFC Fight Night 187 , but the bout ended in unfortunate circumstances. At the beginning of the second round, an inadvertent eye poke by Edwards rendered Muhammad unable to continue and the fight was ruled a no contest . The damage on Muhammad’s eye was very visible but, fortunately, he was only handed a 30-day medical suspension, and is ready to get the rematch booked in a couple of months’ time
