LAS VEGAS – Neil Magny expects to hand the highly touted Shavkat Rakhmonov his first L in Saturday’s UFC on ESPN 38 co-main event.
Magny (26-8 MMA, 19-7 UFC), who is tied with Georges St-Pierre for the most wins in UFC welterweight history, will serve as Rakhmonov’s (15-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) biggest test to date when they meet in a key divisional matchup at the UFC Apex. The main card airs on ESPN following prelims on ESPN2.
Always willing to take on any challenge, Magny said he was happy to accept a fight with Rakhmonov when many others wouldn’t oblige.
