367: 346: 533: 377: 278: 21: 168: 144: 113: 804:– the fighter is clearly the primary topic. He has an average of 600 daily views as opposed to the founder who has 0-3 views. Considering the fact that these are the only two people with this name, Belal Muhammad should default to the page that is most searched for.

Chat GPT said we should use Palestine, but they are not aware of the policies of Knowledge (XXG). How about "American professional mixed martial artist representing Palestine who currently competes in the Welterweight division..." Does this work?
