Muhammad Mokaev Says Beating Arman Tsarukyan Could Fast-Track UFC Return

Released by UFC in 2024 despite an unbeaten run, Mokaev (13-0) sees his submission-only bout with Tsarukyan as a route back. The former flyweight contender said, “If I submit Arman, give me the title shot straight away.” He added, “I think uncle is gonna call me straight away,” suggesting a statement win over the #1 lightweight could reopen UFC doors.
