Moicano vs. Nolan closes October

October ends in Las Vegas. The UFC’s last card of the month is Fight Night at the Meta Apex on Saturday, October 31. Renato Moicano faces Tom Nolan in a five-round lightweight main event. Prelims are listed for 5 p.m. Eastern, the main card for 8.

The matchups

Moicano is a former lightweight title challenger. He submitted Chris Duncan in the second round on April 4 and came in at 21-7-1. Nolan is on a five-fight winning streak at 11-1, in his first UFC main event and his first five-round fight. Those records are from before the fight.

The co-main is at welterweight: Randy Brown (20-8) against Jacobe Smith (13-0), who took the bout on short notice. Smith won by first-round knockout four weeks earlier.

The rest of the main card, in the order the UFC posted it: Ode’ Osbourne vs. Cody Durden, Yana Santos vs. Luana Santos, and Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani vs. Farman Hasanov. Lightweight is 155 pounds. The main event is five rounds. The fights before it are three.

Start times

The United States is still on daylight time. Clocks fall back at 2 a.m. local time on Sunday, November 1, after this card. London is already on standard time. Sydney is on daylight time, eleven hours ahead of UTC.

Prelims at 5 p.m. Eastern, main card at 8:

• Las Vegas: 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.
• London: 9 p.m. Saturday and midnight Sunday
• Sydney: 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. Sunday

8 p.m. Eastern is when the main card is listed to start, not the main event. Five fights come before a five-round headliner, and cards often run long. In Las Vegas, 5 p.m. is the main card, not the first bell of Moicano vs. Nolan. A Pacific-time listing is eight hours behind London.

Nolan won by TKO at 1:28 of the third round. The broadcast channel is on the official card.
