Maximum Fighting Championship
After Razak was released by the UFC, he was in talks with the Canadian promotion, but he never signed, he went on instead to fight Richard White at an NAFC event, where he won by rear naked choke in the 2nd round. After his fight with Demetrius Richards he was signed to fight on the undercard of MFC 26 against Mike Nickels, but pulled out and was replaced by Dwayne Lewis, who subsequently defeated Nickels at the event.
Razak eventually faced Lewis at MFC 27 and lost via split decision. Both announcers, Michael Schavello and Frank Trigg, scored the fight in Al-Hassan's favor.
Al-Hassan was expected to face Rodney Wallace on February 25, 2011 at MFC 28. But he was injured so he was forced out.

Famous quotes containing the words maximum and/or fighting:
“I had a quick grasp of the secret to sanity—it had become the ability to hold the maximum of impossible combinations in one’s mind.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“Peace can endure only so long as humanity really insists upon it, and is willing to work for it and sacrifice for it. Twenty- five years ago American fighting men looked to the statesmen of the world to finish the work of peace for which they fought and suffered; we failed them, we failed them then, we cannot fail them again and expect the world to survive again.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
