British UFC lightweight division fighter Muhammad Mokaev commented on his difficult win over Alex Perez at tonight's UFC Fight Night 238 event. Specifically, Mokaev revealed that he suffered four staph infections prior to this fight.
"23 years old, 12-0 in the pros, 23-0 in the amateurs, 6-0 in the UFC. Thank you all for the support. The most important thing for me was to make weight. I suffered four staph infections in three weeks. The antibiotics killed my immune system. I see how some haters say nasty things about my performance, but you do not see what we fighters go through," - wrote the fighter in his social networks.
Recall, Mokaev won by unanimous decision of the judges.
