UFC contender Muhammad Mokaev has sent a clear warning to rival Manel Kape ahead of their collision at UFC 304.
Muhammad Mokaev and Manel Kape are set to battle it out in a deeply personal flyweight encounter tonight. It seemed like they weren’t big fans of one another for weeks heading into fight night, and a few days ago, they actually got into a huge brawl at the fighter hotel.

Then, when backstage at the UFC 304 ceremonial weigh-ins, Mokaev actually threw a water bottle at his opponent. Somehow, over the course of the last week, this has become one of the most bitter feuds on the card.
In a short statement released on X, Mokaev sent a message to his foe.
