All was going well for Mike Malott at UFC 297 – until it wasn’t.
After a dominant opening two rounds, Malott (10-2-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) was finished with ground-and-pound strikes by opponent Neil Magny 28-11 MMA, 21-10 UFC) in what will likely be a Comeback of the Year candidate at the end of 2024. The stoppage came at 4:45 of Round 3.
The welterweight bout took place on the UFC 297 main card Saturday at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.
