Neil Magny has been asking for a fight. Now he has one, but it’s not against Khamzat Chimaev.
Enter Max Griffin. In a welterweight fight March 26 in Columbus, Ohio, Magny (25-8 MMA, 18-7 UFC) and Griffin (18-8 MMA, 6-6 UFC) will compete in a three-round bout. The event takes place at Nationwide Arena. The main card airs on ESPN after prelims on ESPN/ESPN+.
Two people with knowledge of the booking recently informed MMA Junkie of the matchup but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. The fight was first reported by Twitter user @MagicM_MMA.
