Jalin Turner

"The Tarantula". That's what they call Jalin Turner, and is part of the UFC lightweight division's deep end, fighting out of the United States — 24 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.

This is power striking with numbers behind it — 11 KO/TKO wins, 5.79 significant strikes landed per minute. Opponents don't get outpointed so much as dismantled. Add the southpaw stance and a 77" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.

Last time out he beat Edson Barboza (KO/TKO (Punches) R1) — the kind of result that keeps a career pointed in the right direction.

Next up: Kauê Fernandes at UFC 330: Makhachev vs. Machado Garry on August 16, 2026. Circle the date.
