However, as he has shown before, Magny is not afraid of taking on the toughest challenges the UFC has in store. \u2018The Haitian Sensation\u2019 had previously also tossed his name in the hat to take on Khamzat Chimaev.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"ca\" dir=\"ltr\">16 wins, 16 finishes for Rakhmonov \ud83d\ude33 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/UFCVegas57?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#UFCVegas57<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8lS8ZgY0iQ\">pic.twitter.com\/8lS8ZgY0iQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; ESPN MMA (@espnmma) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/espnmma\/status\/1540916059137384448?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 26, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018Nomad\u2019 is currently 16-0 in his professional MMA career. Going into the fight against Magny, many believed he would either be found out or establish himself as a fighter to look out for at welterweight which is an extremely talent-stacked division to begin with. As soon as the fight started, a lazy kick from Magny allowed Rakhmonov to get the fight to the floor where he displayed impressive top control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-394142 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/yebscore-cms.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/2022\/06\/image01-5-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yebscore-cms.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/2022\/06\/image01-5-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https:\/\/yebscore-cms.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/2022\/06\/image01-5-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/yebscore-cms.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/2022\/06\/image01-5-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/yebscore-cms.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/2022\/06\/image01-5-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/yebscore-cms.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/2022\/06\/image01-5-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/yebscore-cms.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/2022\/06\/image01-5-2048x1366.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A similar pattern was followed in the second round where Rakhmonov got the fight to the floor and was able to dominate there. With less than 10-seconds to go in the second round, \u2018Nomad\u2019 transitioned beautifully and secured a guillotine, although there were only 5-seconds to the end of the round, the choke was so tight that Magny had no other option but to tap out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:-<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/ufc-commentator-michael-bisping-on-why-alexander-volkanovski-is-one-fight-away-from-becoming-the-featherweight-goat\/\">UFC Commentator Michael Bisping on Why Alexander Volkanovski Is One Fight Away From Becoming the Featherweight GOAT<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>What is next for Shavkat Rakhmonov after moving to 4-0 in the UFC?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the win, Rakhmonov stated that he wanted to take on Stephen Thompson in his next fight.
