Of course, that makes it all the more confusing that it’s been relegated to an early prelims spot. Either way, this is a big deal. Kape and Mokaev have had some harsh words for one another in the lead-up to this fight and, as expected, things have been taken to a new level just days before they’re set to meet inside the Octagon.

That’s because the two actually got into an altercation at the fighter hotel earlier this week, which wound up involving a lot of their respective teams.

It certainly feels like this is one of the most personal feuds heading into UFC 304 and while there’s no guarantee that the fight will live up to the hype, both men are certainly good enough to make that happen.
