In a recent announcement during the UFC 299 broadcast, the final bout was added to the landmark UFC 300 event, set to take place on April 13 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Lightweights Renato Moicano and Jalin Turner are poised to face off in what promises to be an electrifying match.
Moicano is on the hunt for his third consecutive victory in the 155-pound division following a submission win against Brad Riddell and a unanimous decision victory over Drew Dober this past February.
On the other side, 28-year-old Jalin Turner, a seasoned competitor from the Contender Series, aims to continue his momentum after a knockout victory over Bobby Green. This win was a significant turnaround for Turner, who had experienced two close split decision losses against Matuesz Gamrot and Dan Hooker. Before these setbacks, Turner had secured five consecutive victories, making a significant impact in the lightweight category.
The inclusion of the Moicano vs. Turner fight brings the total number of bouts at UFC 300 to thirteen. The main event features a light heavyweight title fight, with the current champion Alex Pereira defending his title against Jamahal Hill, ensuring an unforgettable night of fights for MMA fans.
