UFC Vegas 123 went down last night (Sat., Oct. 31, 2026), proving to be an action-packed event on Paramount+. In the main event of the evening, Tom Nolan smashed his way to a victory, knocking out Renato Moicano in the third round (see it here). In the co-main event, Jacobe Smith defeated Randy Brown on all of the judges scorecards while Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani knocked out Farman Hasanov in the third and final round to kick off the main card.

Winner: Tom Nolan

Who He Should Face Next: Mateusz Gamrot

Nolan should find himself in the Top 10 come next week after his stoppage win over Renato Moicano. Afterward, he called for a fight against Gamrot, and I like it a lot. Gamrot is currently ranked No. 9, but he is coming off a loss at the hands of Quillan Salkilld. At No. 10 sits Mauricio Ruffy, which could be another option, but Gamrot seems to be the one Nolan is zeroing in on.

Winner: Jacobe Smith

Who He Should Face Next: Let’s wait and see what happens bewteen Medic and Holland

Smith improved to 14-0, 5-0 UFC after his dominant win over Randy Brown, and called for a fight against Kevin Holland. That may not be an option just yet since “Trailblazer” is lined up to face Uros Medic at UFC 334. Smith still has some ground to cover, so maybe he can wait to see what transpires in the Medic vs. Holland fight to see who his next potential foe could be.

Winner: Cody Durden

Who He Should Face Next: Alex Perez

Durden got back in the win column with a big win against Ode’ Osbourne in a back-and-forth scrap. Durden has not been very consistent over the last few years as he is just 2-5 in his last seven. A fight against Perez could be ideal because he, too, has not been racking up the wins as of late with a record of just 2-4-1 in his last seven and is coming off to Su Mudaerji.

Winner: Luana Santos

Who She Should Face Next: Ailin Perez

In the battle of the Santo’s, Luana defeated Yana Santos (no relation) via unanimous decision. She is currently ranked No. 4 in the women’s Bantamweight division, so she is slowly making her case for a future title shot. With champion Kayla Harrison set to face Amanda Nunes next, and No. 1 ranked fighter, Joselyne Edwards, in line for a title fight after that it leaves Perez as the best option for her next fight. Perez is on a six-fight win streak and is also close to earning her first-ever title shot. This could very well be the next title eliminator fight.

Winner: Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani

Who He Should Face Next: Matthews vs. Abdullayev winner

Lebosnoyani won his eight straight, third inside the Octagon, after defeating Farman Hasanov via third-round TKO. He is slowly getting the attention of the Welterweight division, and a few more wins could start netting hi, bigger fights. As for what could be next, perhaps a showdown against the winner of the upcoming bout between Jake Mathews and Tahir Abdullayev is in order. This comes off the heels of Jean-Paul calling out Matthews, so why not have him face the winner of that aforementioned matchup later this month?
