UFC Vegas 123 Results: Tom Nolan TKO’s Renato Moicano (Video)
We have you covered for all of tonight’s UFC Vegas 123 results, including the lightweight main event between Renato Moicano and Tom Nolan.
Moicano (21-7-1 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since submitting Chris Duncan this past April with a face crank. That triumph snapped a two-fight losing skid for ‘Money’, who had previously dropped fights to Beneil Dariush and Islam Makhachev (see that here). The Brazilian has gone 5-2 over his past seven fights overall.
Meanwhile, Tom Nolan (11-1 MMA) will enter the Octagon sporting a five-fight winning streak, with his most recent victory coming over Fares Ziam this past June. ‘Big Train’ suffered his lone career loss back in January of 2024, when he was TKO’d by Nikolas Motta in his promotional debut.
