BOSTON – Pardon Ian Machado Garry, but he’s a little pissed off heading into UFC 292.
Garry was supposed to fight Geoff Neal, who’s No. 8 in the official UFC welterweight rankings, on Saturday at TD Garden, but Neal withdrew last week, so instead he’s facing another Neil (different spelling) in No. 11 Neil Magny.
It’s funny how things work out – because Magny (28-10 MMA, 21-9 UFC) is who No. 13 Garry originally wanted. But undefeated Garry (12-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) was hyped about the chance to make an even bigger splash against a higher ranked opponent in Neal.
