Belal Muhammad believes that if Hamzat Chimaev defeats Sean Strickland, he will receive a light heavyweight title fight against Paulo Costa. Notably, Belal used the term 'vacant' rather than 'interim' when discussing the potential title bout. The post suggests two possibilities: either Belal misspoke, or he anticipates that if Carlos Ulberg is sidelined long-term, the belt could become vacant again. The speculation raises questions about the future of the 205-pound division and potential champion movements between weight classes.
