“Who do i think deserves it [title shot]? Who do i think has earned it? I think Michael Morales for sure has earned it. But we see the seeds planted. We see Islam planting the seeds of Usman being the next guy. Obviously, they have the same manager... Do i think Usman is an easier matchup for him? Of course. The guy fought one time in three years, and he's 1—3. I'm still ahead of you [Usman]. Even though i lost my last two fights, i'm still 2—2.”

– commenting on the welterweight title picture, arguing that Michael Morales is the fighter who has earned the title shot over Kamaru Usman, whose recent record of 1—3 is being overlooked due to his shared management with Islam Makhachev, who Muhammad believes views Usman as an easier opponent.

“He’s been out there doing his whole camp with Khabib being the main coach. And Khabib is the craziest coach. He’s going to push him harder than he’s ever been pushed before. Especially coming off his first loss, Khabib’s not going to let him take a break. I think they’re hyped because the brother just won. Usman [Nurmagomedov] just won. So I think Umar’s going to be in a good place mentally to get a win”
