UFC President Dana White has asserted that the actions of undefeated British fighter Muhammad Mokaev, of Dagestani descent, have resulted in his termination from the organisation.

«I was not involved in anything that happened to him. That was handled by the matchmakers and Hunter, and they were dissatisfied with him.

Mokaev is just a guy that did everything wrong and pissed these guys off… They weren’t happy with the way he acted, they weren’t happy with a lot of things he did and said… You did it. You put yourself in this position», White remarked during the press conference.

Dana White announced that the promotion would not be renewing its contract with Muhammad Mokaev following the UFC 304 event, which took place in Manchester on the night of July 28. During this event, the British-Dagestani fighter achieved a unanimous decision victory over Portuguese opponent Manel Kape.

Throughout his MMA career, Mokaev has secured 13 wins and has had one bout deemed a no contest.
