The British all-star prospect Muhammad Mokaev has just signed with the UFC. Mokaev was born in Dagestan, Russia, but came to the United Kingdom in 2012 as an immigrant. Quickly taking to both wrestling and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Mokaev later turned to MMA. Mokaev, who fights in the flyweight and bantamweight divisions, previously fought in BRAVE FC, where he achieved victories and currently holds a record of 5-0 (1).
Mokaev fought such opposition as Abdul Hussein and Blaine O’Driscoll. Mokaev turned down an offer to appear on the UFC’s subsidiary talent development programme “Dana White’s Contender Series” earlier this year.
