Pros react after Ian Machado Garry dominates Neil Magny at UFC 292
Tonight’s UFC 292 main card featured a key welterweight bout between Ian Machado Garry and Neil Magny.
Garry (13-0 MMA) was returning to action for the first time since scoring a first-round TKO victory over Daniel Rodriguez this past May at UFC Charlotte. ‘The Future‘ had gone a perfect 5-0 in the UFC since joining the promotion November of 2021, earning stoppage victories in three of those five Octagon appearances.
Meanwhile, Neil Magny (28-11 MMA) stepped up on short notice to accept tonight’s fight with Ian Garry at UFC 292, this after Geoff Neal was forced to withdraw from the contest due to injury. ‘The Haitian Sensation’ had most recently competed at June’s UFC event in Jacksonville, where he scored a split decision victory over Philip Rowe.
Tonight’s ‘Garry vs. Magny’ bout proved to be a one-sided contest. Ian Machado Garry was able to drop Neil Magny on a number of occasions with some powerful low kicks and completely picked apart the veteran while on their feet. After fifteen minutes of domination, ‘The Future’ was awarded a lopsided unanimous decision victory from the judges’ in attendance, including a pair of 30-24 scorecards.

Irish fans, here's a question: does it bother you that Ian Garry adopted his wife's last name?
