After UFC Liverpool Victory, Neil Magny Targets Showdown with Kamaru Usman

It wasn’t the fight he was supposed to have, but credit Neil Magny for making the most of the situation.

After originally scheduled foe Gunnar Nelson withdrew from a proposed clash with Magny at UFC Fight Night 130 due to a knee injury less than a month before the event, the Elevation Fight Team product was paired with Cage Warriors veteran Craig White on short notice.

As the promotional veteran, Magny did what he was supposed to, putting White away with a knee to the face and follow-up punches against the fence for a technical knockout win 4:32 into the opening stanza.
