The internet is a wild place, and it gets even wilder when something major blows up. People start spinning their own wild theories as soon as reports come out. That’s exactly what happened when the recently removed fighter Muhammad Mokaev met with a car accident. Although fans quickly dragged Dana White into the mix, but that’s definitely not the case. Suggestion: it’s best to take online speculation with a grain of salt.
Speaking of Mokaev, the UFC CEO recently revealed that the fighter was removed due to his behavior, which reportedly upset matchmakers, including Hunter Campbell. A few weeks later, Mokaev and his friend got involved in a car crash. According to reports, he lost control of his Mercedes-AMG A 35 and ended up in a ditch. Fortunately, both Mokaev and his friend came away with no major injuries. After which, the internet started buzzing.
Reacting to it, one fan blamed the UFC boss for the situation.
Another fan suggested that since his license plate has “UFC” on it, maybe Mokaev crashed to ensure White would notice it.
For those who don’t know, right after Mokaev was cut from the roster, he reshaped a meme suggesting he had turned into an Uber driver. Referring to that, a fan stated that he was aiming for a 5-star rating but ended up in an accident instead.
