Garry (16-1) insists Muhammad (24-4, 1 NC) is lying to the world \u2014 and himself.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe hasn\u2019t learned from his last fight if he has this approach,\u201d Garry told MMA Junkie<\/a>. \u201cI think he\u2019s lying to the world. I can tell you right here, right now that I\u2019m going to beat Belal anywhere I want, but I plan on knocking him out in the first round. There is not a chance in hell that if he starts on the feet with me that he survives past five minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n Garry has not finished a fight in more than two years, registering five straight decisions.<\/p>\n \u201cIf you want the genuine reaction of what I believe that video is, that\u2019s a man lying to himself,\u201d Garry continued. \u201cThat\u2019s a man who\u2019s playing reverse psychology and is going to tell the world that he\u2019s good enough to do whatever he wants when realistically, he knows he wants to grab a hold of me. It sounds like he\u2019s already making excuses.\u201d<\/p>\n This is probably the biggest fight of their respective careers because defeat at UFC Qatar will almost certainly eliminate the loser from the welterweight title chase, which already has a pair of undefeated contenders<\/a> (as well as one old fart with no knees<\/a>) racing toward the 170-pound finish line.<\/p>\n
