With less than 4 hours before I take off to the middle east, I had the chance today to document (15-3) Welterweight Belal Muhammad, who is fighting also on the UFC 242 card against Takashi Sato, who is a KO artist from Japan. I had a chance to hang with Belal, his best friend and mentor Louis Taylor, who won the million dollar prize in last years PFL final and UFC Lightweight Jared "Flash" Gordon. The preparation and opportunity is the same for all these guys, but the motivation and purpose sometime is different. Meet Belal Muhammed, the Palestinian Warrior.

Ismail Ilmi Genesis 1:1 tells us, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” In John 1:1 we read the same words, “In the beginning.”8 John informs us in John 1:1 that in the beginning was the Word (logos) and that the Word was not only with God but was God. This Word is the one who brought all things into being at creation (John 1:3). John 1:1 teaches that the Word is eternal, the Word has had an eternal relationship with the Father, and the Word as to His nature is In his prayer in John 17:3-5 Jesus both refers to his pre-existence and uses terminology that can only be used about deity: And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed. To have eternal life is to know two persons: both the Father and Jesus (see John 14:6-7; 16:3). But notice, Jesus is distinguished from the Father because Jesus is the one speaking to the Father. The personal pronouns (me, your, you) clearly show that this is one person speaking to another. In this conversation, the Son is speaking of the glory he has shared with the Father before the world was; the words “in your own presence” refer to their sharing of divine glory.9 John 17:3-5 is not an example of the “human side” praying to the “divine side” but of a divine, yet incarnate (John 1:14) person, the Son, communicating with a divine, but non-incarnate person, the Father in heaven. Paul’s words in Philippians 2:5-8 teach not only the deity of Jesus but also the distinct personhood of the Son prior to his incarnation.10 In this passage, Paul exhorts the Philippians to have the same attitude as Christ Jesus who “existed in the form of God.”11 These words come before the verbs emptied, taking, and becoming and point to the pre-existence of the one “existing in the form of God.”12 Moreover, Jesus did not regard13 the equality he had with God the Father, in eternity past, something to be held on to. Instead he “made himself nothing”14 by doing two things: taking the form of a bond-servant and being made in the likeness of men.15 Having entered into human existence he humbled himself to death on the Cross. Because of this, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord (Philippians 2:10-11); it is only God who is to be worshipped as Lord (see Isaiah 45:23). God bless. Satan is the author of confusion. There are many more time through out the Bible Jesus is proved as part of the trinity and Lord. Seek and you’ll find. God bless

@@alecg.8401 With all due respect this is the reason why many Christians are leaving Christianity. You wrote all that and couldn't give me one verse that tells the people who God clearly is. I mean the very fundamentals/basics of religion is knowing who the creator is, and Christianity fails at that. If the Christianity was true it would tell us clearly that this is the Trinity and explain the God head. I believe in the Bible and there is no Muslim who doesn't but unfortunately it has been corrupted by man. The Qur'an is the final testament and God promised that it would not be corrupted. We still have the original manuscripts in the museum and it's still the same. Nice talking to you. Thank you for not cussing and being respectful ✌🏽

Thank you Will for shining light on these incredible individuals. Such a moving video.

Not gonna lie this is the best video I have seen from you. It doesn't involve huge stars but the story telling, the people, the conversations. Amazing.

There is a difference between a man and a boy. I now see and understand and Khabib showed this beautifully. Stay humble people Allah could take it as easy as he gave it. We are nothing. Respect this natural life.

I'm extra early for this one.

I think we all get that special feeling when we watching someone who deserves success attain it like Lou what an absolute legend so humbling and appreciative of guys like these. Much love from Australia and peace and blessings to all people from different ethnic and religious backgrounds we are all the same race at the end of the day the human race and we strive to better ourselves regardless of where we came from and what we were taught.

Best card of the year UFC 242 abu Dhabi

Thank you for doing this, Will. What makes this production great is all about finding the right characters. With the right characters, the storyline follows. Khabib is a great character. I think Bilal and Lou are great. It is very entertaining to witness their brotherhood. I'd watch their story till they are in the nursing home together.

After watching this, I went and watched Belal Muhammad's last four fights. My god he has some boxing skills. He fights like a viper. Always coiled and ready to strike at unexpected angles and timing/speed. Thankyou for shedding some light on a great man and fighter.

blessings to you for giving these gents a platform to voice their beliefs.

These fighters are true warrior and fought for their ego inside themselve! Brilliant work Will. we can see the fighters from the other "angle" that other media didnt show us.
