Muhammad backs himself against Della Maddalena

“My nickname’s ‘Bully B.’ I do see myself as a bully,” Muhammad told reporters, including MMA Junkie, on Wednesday. “I bully all these guys in the cage, so I’m gonna keep doing it.”

“Yeah, I’m gonna knock him out,” Muhammad said. “I’m gonna go in there and show that I’m the best boxer in the welterweight division, I’m the best fighter in the welterweight division, and I’m gonna show my dominance again. …

“I think everything about me is underrated. People go in there and assume stuff, but when they get into the cage with me then they realize what it is. They realize what these hands do, they realize what this pressure does, and it breaks everybody.”
