Undefeated UFC flyweight prospect Muhammad Mokaev talked about the experience of training with interim heavyweight division champion Tom Aspinall and his father Andy.
"When we met, Tom was coaching kids and his father was coaching adults. Tom was also moonlighting as a security guard. Sometimes didn't go home until three in the morning.
Tom has an amazing dad. I think he could come to the UFC and fight top-15 guys. He's a very powerful puncher, he uses jiu-jitsu to the fullest. And his style is great for MMA. He controls his opponent, I like it," Mokaev said in an interview with Title Sports Network.
Recall that at UFC 304, which will take place on July 27 in Manchester, Mokaev will fight Manel Capa. Aspinall will fight Curtis Blades as part of the same event.
