Manel «Starboy» Kape Highlights

Joshua Cook
Who will win: Mokaev or Kape?

Muhammad Mokaev and Manel Kape are set to face off in an intriguing flyweight battle at UFC 304. Mokaev, the young prodigy from England, remains unbeaten in his career, showcasing his exceptional grappling and submission skills. His last fight on March 2, 2024, demonstrated his relentless pursuit of victory and ability to control opponents on the ground.

Manel Kape, a dangerous striker from Portugal, possesses knockout power and a knack for dramatic finishes. While Kape can change the fight with one punch, I believe Mokaev will win by submission, using his superior grappling to neutralize Kape's striking threats.
