PHILADELPHIA – Neil Magny keeps climbing in the UFC record books.
At UFC 330, Magny (32-14 MMA, 25-13 UFC) once again defied the odds as he finished Ramiz Brahimaj (13-7 MMA, 5-5 UFC) with punches at 3:20 of Round 2. The welterweight prelim took place Saturday at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
It wasn't easy, but Magny persevered as he is known to do. The finishing sequence came against the fence. As Magny leaned on Brahimaj, he landed a punch that dropped Brahimaj to his knees. Brahimaj was visibly stunned, and Magny capitalized. He hit Brahimaj over and over again until the referee intervened.
