Representing the United States, Jalin Turner competes in the lightweight division out of the RVCA Training Center. He transitioned into the premier organization following appearances in Bellator MMA, King of the Cage, and a stint on Dana White's Contender Series. Holding a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, he leverages an extensive reach advantage while utilizing a versatile skill set that blends striking with submission grappling. His professional journey, which commenced in 2016, features important victories over Uroš Medić, Jamie Mullarkey, and Brad Riddell.
Entering the event at UFC 329, the American holds an overall professional mark of 13-7-0. His performance trajectory shifted during his most recent outings, as he suffered consecutive split decision setbacks against Mateusz Gamrot and Dan Hooker. These losses interrupted a prior three-fight winning streak.
