Muhammad Mokaev to Jeff Molina: “I gonna maul you!”
Undefeated UFC flyweight, Muhammad Mokaev, took to Twitter today to call out fellow flyweight prospect, Jeff Molina.
In the tweet, Mokaev tells Molina to “stay healthy” and says, “I gonna maul you!”
Jeff Molina, stay healthy I wanna fight against you in France (September) or Abu Dhabi (October)

The call-out comes following Molina’s slit-decision victory over Zhalgas Zhumagulov just last weekend at UFC Fight Night: Volkov vs. Rozenstruik.
“El Jefe” Molina (11-2-0) has gone undefeated in his last 10 bouts, with 3 of those coming in the UFC. In his three UFC bouts, he has defeated Aoriqileng via unanimous decision, Daniel da Silva via second-round TKO, and Zhumagulov via split decision.
“The Punisher” Mokaev went 24-0 as an amateur and is now 6-0 as a professional. In his UFC debut, he made quick work of Cody Durden, securing a guillotine choke in just under a minute.

Come July 23rd, Mokaev is set to meet Charles Johnson in London for UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. Aspinall.
Clearly expecting to win that bout, he is looking for a quick turnaround against Molina, asking for September or October.
