Belal is back.
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) 170-pound champion, Belal Muhammad, will look to snap a two-fight losing streak when he collides with No. 11-ranked welterweight contender, Gabriel Bonfim, atop the upcoming UFC Vegas 118 mixed martial arts (MMA) event, recently made official for Sat., June 6, 2026 at Meta Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Now they have an official poster (courtesy of Marcel Dorff):
I guess that revenge plot will have to wait.
Muhammad (24-5, 1 NC) coughed up the welterweight
title after getting outboxed by Jack Della Maddalena at UFC 315 back in early 2025, then stumbled in his follow-up fight opposite Ian Garry in the UFC Qatar co-main event later that year. As for Bonfim (19-1), he’s the winner of four straight, which includes last November’s technical knockout win over Randy Brown at UFC Vegas 111.
