Mokaev: “Now I am the only contender for the title, but I need an impressive victory”

Dmitriy Kel Feb. 29, 2024, 3:21 p.m.

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.
