Mokaev (17-0) continues to win titles outside
Ultimate Fighting Championship since his controversial promotion. He repeatedly campaigned for a return to the UFC while picking up victories in MMA, submission and karate.
Muhammad Mokaev explains why he believes he is the best flyweight in the world

“I just know it,” Mokaev said. “I know they just didn’t give me a chance to get the belt. I’m going to continue to collect belts from all over the world and challenge these fighters.”
After leaving the UFC, he won
Brave CF flyweight championship before adding the ACBJJ title to his list of accolades. After defeating the latter, “The Punisher” sent a message to the UFC CEO Dana White.
