Undefeated British flyweight fighter Muhammad Mokaev explained why he could be the next opponent of the division champion Alexandre Pantoji.
“Brandon Royval appears to have a torn ACL. He is 0-2 against Pantoji. Brandon Moreno lost three times to Pantoja. Manel Kape will probably have another fight because he didn't make weight last time. Amir Albazi is injured. Kai Kara-France has a concussion because when I offered to fight him, Mick Maynard said he had a concussion and was unavailable.
Now I’m the only contender, but I need to impressively defeat Alex Perez,” MMA Junkie quotes Mokaev as saying.
This coming weekend at the UFC Fight Night 238 tournament, Mokaev will share the Octagon with Alex Perez.
