Description: In the 6th episode of Born To Brawl, MMA fighter Muhammad Mokaev tells his story. From fleeing Dagestan as a boy with his father, to the challenges of growing up as a refugee in the UK, before finding a love of mixed martial arts. Although from the same place with a similar fighting style and undefeated record to the iconic Khabib Nurmagomedov, Muhammad doesn't want to be compared to the UFC legend. He is keen to make his own unique mark in the sport and believes he can be the youngest UFC champion. Muhammad Mokaev makes his UFC debut on 19th March against Cody Durden, which you can follow on the BBC Sport website and app. ============= SUBSCRIBE so you never miss out on our best videos ➡️➡️ bit.ly/1sFodyu ============= Find us here: BBC Sport: bbc.co.uk/sport Facebook: facebook.com/BBCSport Twitter: twitter.com/BBCSport Instagram: instagram.com/bbcsport #bbcsport #muhammadmokaev #ufcdebut
