Ranked UFC Star Shares Hilariously Honest Opinion of UFC 300 Card

This fighter isn't as excited about UFC 300 as some fans are.

One of the UFC’s top-ranked lightweight contenders isn’t particularly impressed by the current state of UFC 300.

The UFC already held its first PPV event of 2024 and has put together a pair of solid follow-up PPVs in UFC 298 and 299, but since late last year fight fans have started focusing more and more on the promotion’s milestone card scheduled for April 13.

There are now eleven confirmed fights for UFC 300, but #13-ranked lightweight Renato Moicano doesn’t believe that the current state of the card is enough to meet the admittedly high expectations of fans.

“For me, I will be honest,” Moicano told Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour. “As a fan and as a Youtuber, UFC 300 is not that great. I will be honest with you, it’s not that great. It’s good…For me, the only fights that I’m interested in here is Justin Gaethje [vs.] Max Holloway, Calvin Kattar and [Aljamain] Sterling, Charles [Oliveira] and {Arman] Tsarukyan, Bobby Green [vs.] Jim Miller. For me personally.”

The BMF title fight between Justin Gaethje and Max Holloway is arguably the biggest fight currently booked for UFC 300, but one notable omission from Moicano’s list is the card’s only other title bout between strawweight queen Weili Zhang and her Chinese compatriot Yan Xiaonan.

UFC 300 likely only has room for two or three more bouts before it takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, but perhaps whatever the promotion has planned for the main event will sway Moicano into believing the card is worthy of the massive expectations that UFC CEO Dana White has created among fight fans.
