· VILLAND PICK editorial
UFC Vegas 123 takes place Saturday, Oct. 31, at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas, featuring a lightweight main event between veteran Renato Moicano and rising 26-year-old prospect Tom Nolan. The event begins with a seven-fight early preliminary card at 5 p.m.
ET, followed by a five-fight main card at 8 p.m. ET, with the entire lineup streaming live on Paramount+.
Moicano enters the cage tasked once again with defending his ranking against an ambitious contender. In April, Moicano stopped Chris Duncan, snapping Duncan's four-fight winning streak. Duncan joined a growing list of fighters—including Benoit Saint Denis, Jalin Turner, and Alexander Hernandez—who sought to elevate their standing at Moicano's expense but fell short against "Money."
Nolan, known for his strong wrestling base, has a chance to supercharge his path to the top of the division. Elsewhere on the UFC Vegas 123 main card, welterweight Randy Brown faces undefeated prospect Jacobe Smith, who stepped in on less than two weeks' notice to replace the injured Carlos Leal.
