Neil Magny and Elizeu Zaleski agree to fight at UFC Vegas 108.
Neil Magny, the UFC welterweight division's most successful fighter, will meet Elizeu Zaleski at UFC Vegas 108 on August 2. The bout will take place inside the UFC APEX.
MMA Fighting got the word from several persons who knew about the issue.
Amir Albazi and Tatsuro Taira will fight in the main event of UFC Vegas 108, which will be shown live on ESPN+.
Magny (29-13) is back in the ring after his planned fight with Gunnar Nelson at UFC 318 was canceled on July 19. The seasoned fighter, who will be 38 a day after the event, is hoping to end a two-fight losing streak against prospects Michael Morales and Carlos Prates.
"Haitian Sensation" has won 22 of his 34 octagon fights since 2012. He has also beaten three former UFC champions: Robbie Lawler, Carlos Condit, and Johny Hendricks.
Zaleski (25-9-1) will try to get back on track after losing to Chidi Njokuani by TKO in the second round in March 2025, four months after beating Zach Scroggin on short notice.
"Capoeira" was on a roll in the promotion, beating Benoit Saint-Denis and Abubakar Nurmagomedov before a majority draw against Rinat Fakhretdinov led to his most recent 1-2 run inside the octagon.
