Demetrious Johnson responds to Belal Muhammad’s harsh criticism of his MMA analysis: “I haven’t seen you fight that much!”

Demetrious Johnson clarifies stance on Belal Muhammad

During a recent appearance on the JAXXON podcast, Johnson responded to Muhammad’s taunts.

“Dawg, I haven’t seen you fight that much!” Johnson said of Muhammad. “One, I think you’re a reactionary fighter. Two, and I gave him praises…what he did to Leon Edwards, he closed that void, jumped on him, and didn’t stop. He did a great thing and outstruck him…it wasn’t clean, but what he did got the job done…

“Everyone sees it as ‘shit talking’. But that’s just me as an analyst…he didn’t agree with my analysis which is fine. He said I sucked, I’m not worried about that though… could you imagine Tom Brady, one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, has multiple Super Bowl rings. If I was to compare myself to Tom Brady, I have 15 world title fights. Success and victories. Whereas he has six Super Bowl rings… so the game is going to change over time, but he’s an analyst now, so he’s going to give his thoughts on what a quarterback should do…you just got to the f***ing dance.”

Johnson is arguably one of the greatest fighters in UFC history after a legendary reign as the promotion’s flyweight champion. He hasn’t fought since a win over Adriano Moraes in May 2023.
