The UFC Flyweight Division has a new top candidate when Manel Cape of ASU Almabayev stopped in an apex apex in a short time.

Kape was due to Brandon Royval in the main event of UFC Vegas 103, but the fight was reorganized in early February. Royval had suffered brain conceals during the camp, which the UFC was forced to call Almabayev for the fight at short notice.
