UFC flyweight fighter Muhammad Mokaev, in an exclusive interview with Telecomasia.net, revealed the date and venue of his upcoming bout.
I have a fight on July 27 in Manchester. I cannot reveal the name of my opponent yet, but he will be from the top-10. It's a good fighter. Will I be asking Dana White for a title shot if I win? If UFC wanted to... Maybe they are keeping me for later. I sparred with Alexandre Pantoja. Perhaps the organization thinks I am young and so they are waiting. It's better for me this way. I will beat all the top fighters, and then wait for them to fight each other.
