Dagestan-born Briton Mokaev, a rising contender in the flyweight division, was seconds away from getting under way against Brazil’s Filho, when the arena lights cut out. Mokaev vs Filho then got under way, marking the first prelim bout of the evening on the undercard of Leon Edwards’ welterweight title defence against Kamaru Usman.
