UFC Fight Night: Moicano vs. Duncan – How to Watch & Full Fight Card | April 6, 2024
Las Vegas will play host to an intriguing lightweight clash on as Renato Moicano and Chris Duncan are set to headline a UFC Fight Night event at the Meta Apex. The bout, announced by UFC.com, promises an all-action affair between the #10 ranked Moicano and the surging Duncan.
Moicano (20-7-1), fighting out of Brasilia, Brazil, returns to the Octagon looking to build on his established reputation as a dangerous and versatile fighter. The Brazilian has consistently demonstrated his grappling prowess, securing victories through submission against notable opponents like Benoit Saint Denis, Brad Riddell, and Alexander Hernandez. He’s aiming to start his 2026 campaign with a statement win.
Duncan (15-2), representing Glasgow, Scotland, will be stepping into the main event spotlight for the first time. Riding a four-fight winning streak, Duncan has showcased his finishing ability with stoppages over Terrance McKinney, Jordan Vucenic, and Bolaji Oki. A victory over Moicano would not only be a career highlight but as well propel him into the Top 15 of the lightweight division.
Beyond the main event, the card features a compelling strawweight contest between veteran grappler Virna Jandiroba and the dynamic Marina Ricci. Jandiroba (22-4), hailing from Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil, is returning to action after a championship challenge. She currently shares the record for the most submission attempts in the strawweight division with 16, a testament to her relentless pursuit of finishes against opponents like Yan Xiaonan, Amanda Lemos, and Loopy Godinez. She’ll be looking to solidify her position within the Top 5 and reignite her pursuit of the title.
Ricci (12-3), fighting out of Ventura, California (originally from Birigui, São Paulo, Brazil), aims to continue her impressive momentum. A black belt in both Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Judo, Ricci has proven her well-rounded skillset with wins over Amanda Ribas, Angela Hill, and Tecia Pennington. She’s setting her sights on becoming the first fighter to finish Jandiroba and establishing herself as a legitimate title contender.
