Tom Nolan stopped Renato Moicano, but that’s not the story of the UFC Vegas 123 main event
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - OCTOBER 31: Australia's Tom Nolan secured the biggest win of his career at UFC Vegas 123.

This blunder allowed Nolan to turn the tide of the fight and ultimately finish Moicano in the third round.
Following the event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew discussed the questionable call from Miragliotta, Nolan's impressive performance despite not receiving the overall recognition, and Moicano's composure after the incident. Other topics covered in the post-fight show include Jacobe Smith's overwhelming victory over Randy Brown in the co-main event, his potential at 170 pounds, Julian Erosa's inspiring retirement story, and other standout moments from the event.
