Manel Kape and Muhammad Mokaev fight in hotel and weigh-ins ahead of UFC 304

Manel Kape and Muhammad Mokaev got into a hotel altercation near the elevator ahead of their UFC 304 matchup….

Manel Kape and Muhammad Mokaev got into a hotel altercation near the elevator ahead of their UFC 304 matchup. These two athletes are both top-ranked in the competitive flyweight division.

Manel Kape and Muhammad Mokaev Altercation

Angola’s Kape was a standout fighter ahead of his UFC debut. Capturing a title in RIZIN with a knockout win over Kai Asakura punched his ticket into the UFC. Since then, he has had an interesting career. With nine fight cancellations in the organization and controversial trash talk, he might be best known for his actions outside the octagon.

Mokaev, of England, is unbeaten in his impressive MMA career. At just the age of 23, he captured amateur titles in IMMAF before turning pro. With his wrestling acumen, there are not many opponents who can handle his physicality and will meet a stiff test at UFC 304.

At the fighter hotel, Manel Kape and Muhammad had their entire team erupt into a brawl. Kape landed a punch and an elbow on Mokaev during the altercation. See the video below:

Afterwards, Kape called out Mokaev on X, saying:

“What kind of Muslim are you? You gave me Salam asked to take a picture and then tried to punch me in the betrayal, i can see now you are not a child of the dagestao, because there are created men you are just a poor bastard raised on a low income in Manchester without honor and principles. When I hit you in Vegas I went alone and I told you to be ready, I don’t hit men with their guard down or distracted or on the back. I thought everything was solved, but now the carnage will continue… Shaytan!”

Manel Kape and Muhammad Mokaev are set to meet on July 27 kicking off UFC 304. At the ceremonial weigh-ins, the flyweights Manel Kape and Muhammad Mokaev threw hands once again in another altercation.

Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad went down ahead of their UFC 304 main event meeting, some of the action happened in the elevator. The two welterweights shared a few words with their teams at the fighter hotel.

Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad and the UFC 304 Elevator

At the fighter hotel, the elevator seems to be a hot spot for fighters to run into one another. Most notably, the UFC 304 headlining fighters, Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad, got into a small altercation. The two athletes broke down what they believe happened from their own point of view.

Leon Edwards explained:

“I was going up to floor three, [the elevator] opened and he was standing right there in front. I think he thought in his head that I wouldn’t come into the lift so I walked straight into the lift and said, ‘Press No. 3,’ and that was it.” H/T MMA Fighting

“It was weird because in the lift he was mad quiet, and then after the lift opened and everyone’s outside, he’s like, ‘Oh p*ssy, blah, blah, blah.’ Like bro, why didn’t you say all this in the lift? I don’t know.”

Belal Muhammad added his side of the perspective:

“I just heard a little short freaking midget screaming something, and I was like, ‘What the heck was that?’ I saw it ended up being his coach in front, but Leon and his team didn’t say nothing.”

“His brother was trying to give me a dirty look, but he didn’t know I was sizing him up for after the cage, if he ends up hopping in the cage wanting to do something.”

The two fighters met once before but ended inconclusively with a no contest due to an inadvertent eye poke. Now, the UFC 304 main event will see Belal Muhammad look to take the title off of the division king ‘Rocky’ Leon Edwards.

Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad at UFC 304

The English athlete Leon Edwards captured the title off of the powerhouse UFC champion Kamaru Usman, ending his reign with a fifth-round head kick. ‘Rocky’ has added two more title defences to his name since then. With his third title defence on the horizon, the 32-year-old fighter is setting his goals high; he wants to surpass the all-time great Georges St-Pierre.

The Canadian-born Georges St-Pierre won his title off of the welterweight great Matt Hughes with a stunning head kick. Eventually, ‘Rush’ would go on to have a whopping thirteen title wins to his name, including going up in weight and capturing a second-division championship. It wasn’t just the number though that made St-Pierre so great, it was also his complete and utter control of his opponents.

On July 27, Edwards will have a past opponent of his; Belal Muhammad at UFC 304. ‘Rocky’ is looking to build a legacy of greatness. During the UFC media day, Edwards explained, “He’s just another guy in the way, right? I’m chasing the great GSP’s record because he is another opponent in the way.” Leon Edwards added, “Everyone knows his gameplan will be to come out and try wrestling. But even his wrestling, it ain’t all that. He ain’t f**king Khabib [Nurmagomedov] or GSP, he’s Belal. Let’s see.”

UFC 304 will be one step in the ladder to greatness for England’s Leon Edwards.

Jon Jones’ lone loss opponent looking for matchup “He already lost to me!”

Jon Jones has one career loss and it’s a bit of an odd story. However, the one man to defeat him, Matt Hamill, is willing to fight ‘Bones’ once again.

Jon Jones’ Only Career Loss

Jon Jones has a near-perfect record at 27-1. Along the way, ‘Bones has defeated multiple generations of great fighters at the highest level, including several former champions. But on the way up, he ran into a loss on a rule violation.

In 2009, Jones met ‘The Hammer’ Matt Hamill. Hamill was a standout talented wrestler who had earned gold in the Deaflympics in multiple meetings. At this point in his MMA career, he was a dangerous rising prospect coming off of a first-round knockout against Mark Muñoz.

During their 2009 fight, the young Jones quickly took down Hamill, mounted him, and began delivering elbows from full mount. However, these were 12-6 elbows, directly from the ceiling to the ground. These have long been illegal in MMA although this was just overturned this past week. Therefore, due to a rule violation, Jones earned a loss via disqualification.

Because the rule was recently changed, Hamill offered to face Jones, now UFC heavyweight champion. “Let’s cut this chase,” He said, “[Dana White] – I know you’re desperate to get [Jon Jones] an undefeated record. I see how you want to profit from that! Is also why you bail him out of all the other things… How about a rematch?! I’ll be happy to fight him for a heavyweight title. If I beat him, I want a UFC belt. Let me know if Stipe Miocic backs out. I’ll take short notice, just remember he already lost to me!”

Recently in an interview, Aspinall was asked for comment about the situation. He explained, “Listen, Conor told me not to speak about him anymore. So, I’m going to respect that. I don’t want — he’s a scary guy … He’s giving out threats, so I’m going to back off. I ain’t going to talk about it no more if that’s the case. There’s no history. I’ve never talked to him before. We don’t have any mutual friends or nothing like that … I mean, he’s not wrong. I do look a bit like Mr. Potato Head. I think that’s pretty hilarious. He’s not wrong.”
