\u201cI\u2019ve been in there with the best of the best,\u201d Muhammad told MMA Fighting<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve been in there with all of these guys and stylistically I\u2019ve seen his style before. [Bonfim has] never really been in there with anybody like me. Stylistically he\u2019s never seen anybody fight like me. Yeah, I think for himself it\u2019s going to be one of those \u2018oh okay, that\u2019s the level, that\u2019s the next level, that\u2019s what it\u2019s supposed to be.\u2019 But my mindset right now is just reminding the world, reminding myself and I still think I\u2019m the best fighter in the welterweight division, but I\u2019ve just got to go out there and prove it.\u201d<\/p>\n
