‘It Really Doesn’t Scare Us’

Rakhmonov’s status undoubtedly precedes him, however Muhammad’s coach, Mike Valle, says that neither he nor the champ is afraid of stepping contained in the Octagon with the fast-rising fan favourite.

“It’s an incredible problem,” Valle told MMA Junkie. “It’s an incredible code to crack. I can’t look ahead to it. There’s all this hype behind him and he’s an incredible man. He’s an incredible fighter, too. Belal is unreal, too. He’s one of the best on the planet at preventing.

“And he’s one of the best on the planet at going again, going sideways, placing strain, not going to the bottom. So it doesn’t matter the place the struggle might happen. He’s keen to go ahead, return, go to the aspect, struggle on prime, struggle behind. It actually doesn’t scare us. No matter it’s, let’s go” (h/t BJPenn.com).
