Mokaev may have missed on the opportunity to fight on Netflix,
but that won’t prevent him from maintaining an active
itinerary.
After visa issues forced Mokaev to withdraw from a matchup with
Adriano
Moraes at
Most Valuable Promotions “Rousey vs. Carano,” the UFC veteran
has agreed to face Jorge Calvo
at WOW 31 on June 6 in Madrid, Spain. The
organization announced the bantamweight bout on Wednesday.
UFC lightweight champ Iia Topuria is part owner of the
promotion, which is officially known as Way of Warrior FC.
A New Opportunity
Mokaev, who is the reigning
Brave Combat Federation titlist, is unbeaten in 17 professional
outings. He earned a Top 10 ranking after going 7-0 in the UFC,
besting the likes of Manel Kape,
Alex
Perez and Tim Elliott
in the process. He was released from the organization in 2024 and
has gone 3-0 in MMA bouts since then, winning the Brave CF
flyweight strap this past November.
A native of Costa Rica, Calvo owns a 20-7 career mark. He was the
LUX Fight League flyweight champion until dropping a unanimous
decision to Paulino
Siller on Feb. 13. That defeat snapped an eight-bout winning
streak for the 34-year-old.
