Animosity Hits a Boiling Point
The bad blood between Manel Kape and Muhammad Mokaev is undeniable. This heated rivalry reached new heights on Wednesday when a brawl erupted at the UFC 304 host hotel in Manchester. As confirmed by sources through Mike Heck, the footage of the altercation rapidly spread on social media, showing an intense confrontation between the two flyweights.
Both fighters took to their Instagram Stories to address the incident, fueling the already blazing fire. Kape posted a photo of Mokaev sporting a cut above his left eyebrow, with the caption, "my bitch forever." In response, Mokaev shared a screenshot from the brawl, highlighting Kape's face with the word "Help."
Kape didn't stop there, expressing his disdain for X:
"What kind of Muslim are you? You gave me Salam, asked to take a picture, and then tried to punch me in betrayal. I can see now you are not a child of Dagestan because they create men there. You are just a poor bastard raised on a low income in Manchester without honor."
The tension is set to culminate in the octagon this Saturday, as Kape and Mokaev clash in a three-round flyweight bout on the preliminary card of UFC 304. With significant stakes, the winner could find themselves in title contention for Alexandre Pantoja’s UFC flyweight belt.
This isn't the first time these fighters have clashed outside the ring. In early July, fellow UFC fighter Jean Silva claimed to have witnessed Kape attacking Mokaev outside the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas. Kape, however, dismissed the story as a fabrication meant to "spice up the fight."
UFC 304 will unfold on July 27 at the Co-op Live in Manchester, England, promising a night filled with explosive matchups and high-stakes drama. As Kape and Mokaev prepare to settle their differences, fans eagerly anticipate one of the most intense flyweight showdowns in recent memory.
