Mokaev will face another tough task in Kape, who is on a four-fight winning streak inside the Octagon. Before multiple fight withdrawals in 2024, Kape most recently defeated Felipe dos Santos at UFC 293 in September.
The veteran Kape has defeated the likes of Zhalgas Zhumagulov, Ode Osbourne, and David Dvořák during his UFC tenure. He began his UFC career with back-to-back losses to current flyweight titleholder Alexandre Pantoja and Matheus Nicolau.
Pantoja defeated Steve Erceg at UFC 301 last weekend, and a timeline for his return is uncertain. He’s defeated most of the top contenders outside of Mokaev and Kape.
UFC 304 marks the promotion’s return to the UK and Manchester on July 27. The card’s main event has yet to be announced, although the card is expected to feature the return of interim UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall.
