Mokaev Offered UFC BJJ Title Shot vs Musumeci

Former UFC flyweight contender Magomed Mokaev, who was cut by Dana White, announced on February 9, 2026, that he has been offered a title shot against Mikey Musumeci in the UFC BJJ promotion. Mokaev, known as 'The Punisher,' shared this on X, amid his hopes to repair ties with UFC. The opportunity comes ahead of Musumeci's defense at UFC BJJ 5 on February 12 against Shay Montague. This matters as it could showcase Mokaev's grappling skills and potentially open doors back to UFC MMA roster. Fans await his decision on accepting the bout.
