Muhammad Mokaev, widely regarded as the best undefeated Flyweight in MMA, will make his highly-anticipated return to the BRAVE Combat Federation cage. He is set to face African Flyweight star Luthando Biko at BRAVE CF 91, taking place on December 13 in Isa Town, Bahrain.
The bout headlines the BRAVE International Combat Week, the world’s largest combat sports festival, which will also feature BRAVE CF 92 and the IMMAF Youth Asian Championships.
Endorsed by MMA Legend Demetrious Johnson
Ahead of his return, Mokaev earned high praise from MMA legend Demetrious Johnson, who recently retired after a stellar career. Johnson, considered one of the greatest Flyweights of all time, described Mokaev as a fighter with “world-class striking, wrestling, and fight IQ.”
Sharing Johnson’s video endorsement, Mokaev posted, “Legend himself knows.” The acknowledgment from such a respected figure further cements Mokaev’s position as one of the brightest talents in the Flyweight division.
Mokaev’s Journey to Dominance
Currently boasting a perfect professional record of 13 wins and no losses, Mokaev’s career began with BRAVE Combat Federation in 2020. He competed five times under the organization before moving on to secure seven more victories elsewhere. Now, Mokaev has re-signed with BRAVE CF, ready to pick up where he left off.
Before turning professional, Mokaev dominated the amateur scene as a multiple-time IMMAF World Champion, finishing his amateur career undefeated. Recognizing his exceptional talent early, His Highness Shaikh Khaled bin Hamad Al Khalifa invited Mokaev to join the prestigious KHK MMA Team in Bahrain.
A Tough Opponent in Luthando Biko
Standing in Mokaev’s way is Luthando Biko, a top-ranked Flyweight from Africa with a four-fight winning streak. A former Commonwealth Games Judo medallist, Biko brings a well-rounded skillset and a reputation for delivering exciting fights.
The matchup promises fireworks as both fighters aim to solidify their standings in the Flyweight division.
Fans can catch the action live on December 13 at the Khalifa Sports City Arena as part of BRAVE International Combat Week, showcasing some of the world’s best combat sports talents.
