Mokaev out, Enkuta replaces him against Moraes at MVP on May 17

Muhammad Mokaev has been pulled from his scheduled bout against Adriano Moraes at the MVP promotion event on May 17. Replacing Mokaev will be the undefeated Fumi Enkuta, who brings an 11-0 record into the matchup. No reason was given in the post for Mokaev's withdrawal from the fight. Enkuta will now face the veteran Moraes in what remains a compelling matchup between an unbeaten prospect and an experienced former champion. The change was announced just days before the scheduled event.
