Belal Muhammad and Khamzat Chimaev are seemingly teasing a future matchup.
Muhammad is scheduled to defend his welterweight title in the main event at UFC 315 on May 10 at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Middleweight contender Chimaev recently took a shot at Muhammad, calling him a “pony.”
“Bullyb170 where are you going, pony,” Chimaev wrote.
In response, Muhammad teased a move up to middleweight, which could possibly put them on a collision course.
“Goin to middleweight,” he wrote.
While Chimaev used to primarily fight at 170 pounds, the weight cut was too steep for him, which led to him missing weight by a massive 7.
