Muhammad Mokaev joins Brave CF again following axing from UFC

Unbeaten flyweight contender, Muhammad Mokaev will once more showcase his talents under the banner of Middle East-based organization, Brave CF — with the flyweight star signing on the dotted line for a second go round with the promotion following his unceremonious exit from the UFC.

Mokaev, a former top-contender inside the Octagon, made his final walk with the organization in a grudge fight against fellow flyweight contender, Manel Kape at UFC 304 at the end of July, landing a unanimous decision win in a controversial judging win in Manchester.
