Neil Magny & Jared Cannonier discuss upcoming fights on Saturday

On today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered, Jim and Matt are joined by a pair of U.S. Army veterans turned UFC veterans in welterweight Neil Magny and middleweight Jared Cannonier.

 

Looking to build off a resounding upset win over Mike Malott, Magny talks about his standing in the game as a veteran and how his experience keeps him calm enough to capitalize off mistakes made by younger opponents. Having just signed a four-fight deal to remain with the UFC, the 37-year-old Magny then goes on to explain what he expects from unbeaten 25-year-old Michael Morales on Saturday night’s main card.

 

Shortly after, Jared Cannonier calls in ahead of his main event on Saturday against 12th-ranked Caio Borralho. Eager to move past his most recent loss to Nassourdine Imavov that many observers (like Matt) believed may have been stopped too early. Cannonier wraps things up by looking into scenarios that could help the middleweight veteran re-emerge into a title picture amongst current champion Dricus Du Plessis.
