UFC lightweight Jalin Turner made his debut in the promotion's official 155-pound rankings following a sensational performance at this past weekend's UFC 276 event, but "The Tarantula" can now reveal just how close his bout with Brad Riddell was to being canceled.
"Honestly, not a lot of people know this, but I couldn't even move my arm before the fight," Turner told MMA Underground. "I messed up my arm pretty bad. It was crazy. I had hyperextended it doing some grappling, so I was, like, this close to being like, 'I don't know if I can make it to the fight,' but we made it, so, you know, it worked out."
