As fight fans already know, the blockbuster UFC 300 event is set to go down at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on April 13. The card is absolutely stacked from top to bottom, with another big bout seemingly being added last night.

During the UFC 299 broadcast, it was revealed that Jalin Turner and Renato Moicano will collide next month, with the first report coming from @FREAKMMA1 on X.

These two lightweights are both on the outside of the title picture looking in, but a big win for either could really vault them into contention if they can impress at this landmark show.

Turner and Moicano prepare for war

Given what we know about both men, we’d argue it’s safe to say that this is going to be an absolute war. Turner and Moicano are both capable of finishing a fight at any time, and it certainly feels as if they are ready to make a real statement to the rest of the lightweight division.

Turner, 28, recently bounced back from two split decision defeats with an absolutely insane knockout victory over Bobby Green. On the flip side, 34-year-old Moicano is riding a two-fight win streak after managing to dispatch of Brad Riddell and Drew Dober.

As we know, things are looking pretty stacked at 155 pounds. There is so much talent on display in the top 15 and beyond, to the point where every lightweight bout that happens seems like it has the potential to be Fight of the Night. Hopefully, at UFC 300, we get an all-time classic.
