After dropping consecutive decisions to Stephen Thompson and Neil Magny, Neal has rebounded with a split decision triumph over Santiago Ponzinibbio at UFC 269 and a knockout of Vicente Luque at UFC on ESPN 40. The Fortis MMA representative has been victorious in seven of his nine Octagon appearances since earning a UFC contract on Dana White’s Contender Series.
Rakhmonov has emerged as a person of interest in the welterweight division after beginning his professional career with 16 straight triumphs. The 27-year-old Kazakhstan native is 4-0 within the Las Vegas-based promotion and is coming off a second-round submission of Neil Magny at UFC on ESPN 38.
