4 hours agoVideo: Ciryl Gane trains with former 'Poatan' foe ahead of UFC White House
Ciryl Gane is training with Artem Vakhitov ahead of his fight against Alex Pereira for the interim heavyweight title.
The night's main event saw the promotion's vacant featherweight title on the line, as Niko Samsonide of Georgia took on Austria's Mago Machaev. With challengers like Gjoni Palokaj already lining up, whoever came away with the undisputed title would be looking at a busy 2026. Heavyweight action, meanwhile, saw former title challenger Lazar Todev taking on UFC vet Josh Parisian.
Muhammad Mokaev has seemingly been invited back to the UFC, but not to compete in MMA. Mokaev (15-0) recently won the under-65 kilogram title at the English Senior Wrestling Championships in freestyle wrestling. Mokaev claims he has now been offered to fight jiu-jitsu ace Mikey Musumeci for a UFC BJJ title. "I have been offered to compete against Mikey Mussumeci for the UFC BJJ belt. What do you think guys?" Mokaev wrote on X.
Even going back to like your wrestling days, you don't want to get beat by someone that gets f*cking beat out of the tournament right away. You don't cheer for other people in this sport, but still like okay, that's if you got if I would have got beat by someone that wouldn't like 0-2 to and got cut I'd be like f*ck.
