Alexander Volkanovski again defended his Featherweight crown last weekend and we have another Aussie headlining a card this Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tom Nolan is shooting for his sixth straight win in the lightweight division when he takes on Renato Moicano in the main event in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve previewed that fight, and two others, below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Hailing from Toowoomba in Queensland, Tom Nolan entered the UFC via Dana White\u2019s Contender Series in 2023.<\/p>\n

He suffered a loss when making his UFC debut via first round knockout but has not looked back since.<\/p>\n

Five straight wins has earned him the opportunity to headline a fight night card and two of those have been finishes.<\/p>\n

Renato Moicano has been a ranked lightweight for the vast majority of his pro MMA career.<\/p>\n

He has wins over Jeremy Stephens, Calvin Kattar and Cub Swanson, to name a few, and has won five of his last seven.<\/p>\n

When tested against the very best of the division he has come up short but make no mistakes on how dangerous, and how in form, the Brazilian is at the moment.<\/p>\n

At six foot and two inches, Nolan can cause problems for anyone with his reach and length but he runs into a very experienced campaigner in the shape of Moicano.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be cheering the Aussie on from back home but I have a feeling this fight has come a bit soon despite his enormous talent.<\/p>\n

Randy Brown started his UFC career over a decade ago and he has been a consistent performer for that entire period.<\/p>\n

Highlights include wins over Khaos Williams, Muslim Salikhov and Alex Oliveira but he has just one win from his last four fights.<\/p>\n

Jacobe Smith is an undefeated 30 year old with a record of 13-0 with 10 wins via knockout.<\/p>\n

This includes four wins in the UFC and all four by finish.<\/p>\n

He faces a tough and experienced opponent and while the market suggests the judges will not be needed, I\u2019m convinced that is where the value lies.<\/p>\n

This is a huge fight for Ode\u2019 Osbourne who entered the UFC with plenty of hype but now has an overall pro MMA record of 13 wins and 9 losses with two no contests.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s fought at flyweight, bantamweight and featherweight in the UFC and has just one win in his last six fights although his last was a no contest.<\/p>\n

Cody Durden is a 35 year old BJJ brown belt who also has a lot to fight for to extend his pro career.<\/p>\n

From 30 fights he has a record of 18:11 with one no contest and also has a singular win from his last six.<\/p>\n

Two in his last nine.<\/p>\n
