The fights return to the Apex for tonight's UFC Vegas 123 event, a 12-bout fight card headlined by Renato Moicano vs. 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.

UFC Vegas 123 is co-headlined by a welterweight bout featuring Randy Brown taking on Jacobe Smith.

Brown (20-8 MMA) will enter the Octagon with hopes of snapping a two-fight losing skid, this after suffering back-to-back losses against Gabriel Bonfim and Kevin Holland respectively. Prior to those setbacks, ‘Rude Boy' was coming off a second-round knockout victory over Nicolas Darby in April of 2025.

Meanwhile, Jacobe Smith (13-0 MMA) will be making a quick turnaround, this after earning a first-round TKO victory over Bruce Whitehead just four weeks ago at UFC 332 (see that here).

Also featured on tonight's UFC Vegas 132 main card is a welterweight bout between Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani and Farman Hasanov.

Lebosnoyani (11-2 MMA) will enter the contest on a six-fight winning streak, with his most recent victory coming over Seok Hyeon Ko this past July. ‘Mufasa' has gone 2-0 since making his Octagon debut back in February.

Meanwhile, Farman Hasanov (5-0) made his promotional debut back in June at UFC Baku, where he kept his perfect record in check with a unanimous decision win over Eric Nolan. ‘The Lion' has earned stoppage wins in three of his five professional fights.

Farid
Basharat has addressed his departure from the
Ultimate Fighting Championship in a statement on social
media.

Basharat (16-0) completed his contract with a victory over John Garza
in July and wasn't offered a new deal despite going unbeaten in the
promotion. In his statement, Basharat reflected on his UFC tenure
and questioned the organization's direction.

Farid Basharat says the UFC never offered a new contract after
his unbeaten seven-fight run

Basharat went 7-0 in the UFC after earning a contract on
Dana White's Contender Series, with six of those victories
coming by decision. He confirmed his departure on Instagram, saying
he competed under unfavorable circumstances and never declined a
fight.

“The news is confirmed, I am no longer with the UFC,†Basharat
wrote on Instagram. “I've had an incredibly successful time in the
organization. I'm proud and happy with what I've accomplished
inside the Octagon. I leave with a stainless record. Holding the
longest active win streak in my weight division and the fourth
longest in the entire UFC. I feel I'm the best bantamweight in the
world. I always turned up and fought regardless of injuries and
weight deficits. And I always asked for the toughest opponent to
get me closer to the title.â€

While grateful for his time with the promotion and its staff,
Basharat questioned the UFC's direction and said he had not
received a contract offer since his last bout.

“But my departure clearly has nothing to do with my fighting
capabilities,†Basharat added. “Unfortunately, the organization
just isn't what it used to be. They're heading in a different
direction from what we all grew up loving. I want to clarify that
since my last fight, I was never offered a contract or an opponent;
I waited, but it never came. I've certainly never declined a fight
during my whole tenure.â€
