MONTREAL – UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad may move up to middleweight to face Dricus Du Plessis, whether or not he holds the division’s title. Muhammad (24-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) knows he has some more work to do within his own division, but that hasn’t stopped him from contemplating a move up to middleweight to challenge current middleweight champion Du Plessis (23-2 MMA, 9-0 UFC). “I would literally take his shots, eat them, and then walk through them,” Muhammad told MMA Junkie.
