Moicano Steps Up: A Shift in UFC 311’s Main Event

With the unexpected withdrawal of Arman Tsarukyan, the UFC 311 title match has seen a significant shake-up. Renato Moicano, fresh off a powerful second-round TKO in Paris, will now step into the ring to challenge lightweight champion Islam Makhachev. Moicano, who has been on a winning streak since moving up to lightweight in 2020, brings a record of 7-2 to the table. Makhachev, currently the top pound-for-pound fighter in the division, accepted the new opponent quickly. If he wins, this title defense could make history. No other lightweight champion has scored five title fight victories before. Meanwhile, Dariush finds himself off the UFC 311 card due to these changes. In another schedule adjustment, the heavyweight clash between Jailton Almeida and Serghei Spivac has been promoted to the main card. This shift keeps viewers on their toes and adds an extra layer of excitement to the event. As always, keep an eye on UFC. com for any last-minute updates.
