UFC champ Henry Cejudo recently revealed details about a heated and physical podcast recording between himself, Kamaru Usman, and Belal Muhammad on the Pound 4 Pound podcast. Cejudo co-hosts the show with Usman and was surprised by the tension between the two fighters.
The podcast episode was set up by Usman’s manager Ali Abdelaziz, who represents all three fighters. Muhammad had previously called out Usman for a potential title fight, leading to a back-and-forth on social media.
When asked about the recording, Cejudo confirmed that things escalated quickly, with physical altercations breaking out between the two fighters. The incident involved Kamaru getting up and a scuffle, which required intervention from the production crew.
Despite the tension, Cejudo remained open-minded, hoping for a chance to resolve their differences on the podcast. However, he acknowledged that having Muhammad on the show was a risk due to Usman’s past comments and social media exchanges.
The heated episode has raised questions about the potential for a title fight between Usman and Muhammad in the future.
