Saturday’s UFC on ESPN 52 experienced a late co-main event change due to Dan Hooker’s arm injury, and Jalin Turner stepped in to face Bobby Green instead. The event, taking place at Moody Center in Austin, Texas and airing on ESPN following prelims on ESPN+, has several intriguing fights, but Hooker vs. Green had fans particularly excited. Turner, however, with a record of 13-7 MMA and 6-4 UFC, stepped in to fight Green in a three-round fight in the lightweight division.
Despite coming off back-to-back losses, Turner was chosen for the event, although there were other names being considered. The panelists of “Spinning Back Clique” discussed whether Turner was the right choice for the event, hosted by George Garcia and panelists Brian Garcia, Danny Segura, and Mike Bohn.
