Neil Magny and Ramiz Brahimaj have been added to the UFC 330 card in Philadelphia. The welterweight matchup is among several new bouts confirmed for the event.
A welterweight clash between Neil Magny and Ramiz Brahimaj has been officially added to the UFC 330 card, set to take place in Philadelphia on August 15, 2026, as part of an event headlined by a lightweight title fight between Islam Makhachev and Ian Machado Garry.
Magny, known as "The Haitian Sensation," brings one of the most battle-tested resumes in the welterweight division to this matchup. The 38-year-old American, who trains out of Elevation Fight Team, carries a 31-15 record compiled over a long UFC career. Standing six-foot-three with an 80-inch reach, Magny has long used his frame and activity to wear down opponents, landing 3.4 significant strikes per minute and averaging 2.17 takedowns per 15 minutes.
Brahimaj, also American-born and 33 years old, fights out of Fortis MMA and holds a 13-6 record. The orthodox striker stands five-foot-ten with a 72-inch reach and has shown a well-rounded offensive game, posting 2.29 significant strikes per minute alongside 1.99 takedowns and 1.6 submission attempts per 15 minutes, suggesting a grappling-heavy approach that could test any opponent.
Why it matters
- Magny's length and volume striking contrast sharply with Brahimaj's submission threat, setting up a stylistically compelling matchup
- At 38, Magny faces a younger, aggressive opponent who could push him toward a defining stretch of his late career
- A win for either fighter would bolster welterweight standings ahead of what promises to be a busy second half of 2026 in the division
