LAS VEGAS – Belal Muhammad can’t wait to get his hands on Colby Covington . Muhammad (18-3 MMA, 9-3 UFC) knows he has an opportunity to break into title contention with a win when he takes on Leon Edwards at UFC Fight Night 187 , which takes place Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The event streams on ESPN+. With UFC president Dana White promising Edwards a title shot with a win, Muhammad is looking to steal the Brit’s opportunity . But if a win doesn’t lead to a crack at the title, there’s one man Muhammad would be more than happy to face instead. “I’m not going to be one of those guys that’s going to sit, especially if it’s Colby Covington,” Muhammad told reporters, including MMA Junkie, at UFC Fight Night 187 media day.
