Jalin Turner praises Ian Machado Garry for helping him rediscover MMA passion

UFC lightweight Jalin Turner has thanked Ian Machado Garry for helping him rediscover his passion and love for mixed martial arts.

Following a brief retirement from the sport, Jalin Turner made his return to the Ultimate Fighting Championship at UFC 323 last weekend. He was able to get back in the win column in emphatic fashion, finishing off Edson Barboza following a pretty one-sided and dominant first round display. Now, he looks set to once again pursue his dream of becoming a world champion.

While things are looking pretty stacked at 155 pounds right now, Jalin Turner certainly has the skills necessary to cause problems for a lot of guys in the top 15.
