UFC flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja confirmed that he is ready to make his next title defense against Muhammad Mokaev, if he wins a brilliant victory this coming weekend.

On the night of March 3 at the UFC Fight Night 238 tournament in Las Vegas, USA, Mokaev will share the Octagon with Alex Perez.

“He will have plenty of time, although he is losing a lot of weight. I know this because he used to train in our gym, at American Top Team. He's a very big guy for a flyweight.

I think a fight with him would definitely make sense if he wins his fight. Moreno had the opportunity to get a title chance, but he was defeated, so now let’s see how Mokaev will perform,” Sportskeeda quotes the Brazilian as saying.
