Overview
- Mokaev reversed a takedown and finished Jorge Calvo with heavy ground-and-pound in 42 seconds at WOW 31 in Madrid on Saturday, June 6.
- The win extended Mokaev’s unbeaten professional record to 16-0 and continued a multi-fight finishing streak since his surprise UFC release in 2024.
- He took the Madrid bout on short notice after a planned May matchup with Adriano Moraes at MVP MMA collapsed because of last-minute visa issues.
- Immediately after the fight Mokaev posted on X declaring himself the best flyweight and directly appealed to UFC executives to reopen negotiations.
- A UFC return remains uncertain because of administrative and matchmaking barriers, though fighting on a card with high-profile ownership has increased his public visibility.
