Alright Mokaev Has Learned His Lesson or Whatever Let Him Come Back

[Conan the K-9]

Lol NO!
Mokaev is ekeing out boring lnp decisions, against ten days notice opponents, in lower leagues. This guy has no place in the UFC.

 

[richardjohnson]

Van earns some hype, and a interesting position, and TS wants to use that to finally put over a troubled uninteresting dude, that they struggled to work with in the past.

Brilliant.

Good thing divisions need more than one good contender to be interesting. Like him or not Mokaev is one of the best flyweight prospects in the world right now.

Why was he released actually? Conor raped women, pushed a ref, punches people in public, gets into brawls and Dana still begs him to fight. Not even mentioning Bones on his 5073727 crime. What did Mokaev do thats worse than Jones and Conor do to get released?

Yeah because everyone always gets treated equally in life lmao. They care about Conor and Jones, so they can get away with more.

He wasn't bringing the money bags. That's the only reason.

Or should he take another pointless fight against someone a couple leagues below him? This is crazy he is now 15-0. He won his two fights in the regional scene and he is 7-0 in the UFC and not even 25 years old in a division that is close to being literally void of contenders. Has solid win over top 5 Kape and other good names. We can’t know if he’s gonna be a pain in the UFC’s ass again or not until they re sign him and he “won some fights” outside the org. Him vs. Joshua Van could bring some needed excitement and rejuvenation to the division.

Only if his first fight is against Manel Kape.. That fight was fire

 

[prime_lobov]

Nope, UFC is setting up Josh Van as the next flyweight champ and doesn’t want anyone other new blood.

 

[bean88]

After he made out it was murder on sight with Kape then danced around and did nothing as soon as the bell went I just can’t give a shit about him ever being in the UFC again

 

[methrogenn]

I have followed Mokaevs career since before the UFC & he has always rubbed me the wrong way, he seems extremely entitled & immature & his fighting style does not justify him coming back either.

There are many example I can list here but the last one before his UFC exit still baffles me where he told Kape they are both Muslim brothers & let bygones be bygones, asked for a picture with Kape & then proceeded to sucker punch him.

He still has the emotional maturity of a orangatang going by his tweets & should be kept away from professional organisations

I was thinking ts had a point fly could use a fresh guy but I don't read ppl tweets if he still being an ass I don't think they'll be interested.

And like it or not nobody wants him.

You can only buy a piece of shit if you bring in big profits.

Mojave was a jerk without being profitable. Big Mistake!!!

Because he snapped a photo with Kape and sucker punched him after

IIRC, Mokaev committed one of the unforgiveable sins in the modern era: being an asshole to WME staff. Same thing that sealed Dan Hardy's fate.

 

[xhaydenx]

No matter what. Dana will make him work his way up the ladder again.

DWCS 2 fights and then 12/12 UFC contract.

 

[TheWobbler]

He is so boring, Dana will never bring him back.

 

[Alpha_T83]

2 fights in the bum leagues in almost a year? That's the best he can do?

He should fight every 3 months against non-UFC competition.

 

[ocfightfan]

And which lesson would that be?

 

[Meathead Jock]

In a way they are doing him a favor. Let Pantoja start to decline before coming back in his prime unblemished.

He was a jackass. But I'm under the belief they fired him for fear he would win the belt at a young age and potentially hold it a very long time so they used an excuse to eliminate that possibility and figured the fans wouldn't care too much and they could get away with it. They were right.

They are fortunate Van won though because if he hadn't there would have been more of a need for them to sign him back or Pantoja would need to fight Merab for something of interest.
