Dana White was not holding back following UFC 304.
Outspoken UFC President, Dana White took the podium following the UFC 304 pay-per-view event in Manchester, England late Saturday night (early Sunday morning in England).
Dana White Wishes Muhammad Mokaev 'Good Luck' in PFL
During the event's preliminary bouts, the heated grudge match between top flyweight contenders, Muhammad Mokaev and Manel Kape came to a head, which saw Mokaev earn the controversial decision nod.
Mokaev told the media his deal with the company expired following the bout, and claimed he was told by UFC brass that his fighting style was something executives wasn't a fan of and would put a new deal in question if he didn't display more of an aggressive outing against the explosive Kape.
The Russian-turned English contender didn't quite set the world on fire against Kape, who broke his toe early into the bout, something that didn't please the boss, who adamantly confirmed the promotion won't be renewing Mokaev's deal.
Dana White on what’s next for Muhammad Mokaev: “I think PFL is going to get a great, undefeated guy…good luck to him.”

What's Next For Tom Aspinall Following Dominant Victory?
During his post-fight, in-octagon interview, Tom Aspinall called out UFC Heavyweight Champion, Jon Jones, someone Aspinall claims he's just better than.
The boss then hit on what's next for interim heavyweight champion, following his first-minute knockout of Curtis Blaydes, claiming that the winner of the upcoming Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic fight will be next for Aspinall...unless both Jones and Miocic were to retire following their encounter.
