Ellis Turner and Neil Magny have been booked for UFC 330, set to take place in Philadelphia. The pair join a growing card for the promotion's return to the city.
Neil Magny is heading to Philadelphia. The veteran welterweight and his opponent Ellis Turner have been officially booked for UFC 330, which takes place on August 15 as part of the promotion's return to the city.
Magny, known as "The Haitian Sensation," brings one of the most seasoned resumes in the welterweight division to this matchup. The 38-year-old American, who trains out of Elevation Fight Team, carries a professional record of 31-15-0 and stands six-foot-three with an 80-inch reach — physical tools that have served him well across more than 45 UFC appearances. He averages 3.4 significant strikes per minute at 46 percent accuracy and supplements his output on the feet with a consistent wrestling game, landing 2.17 takedowns per 15 minutes. That combination of durability, volume, and grappling threat has kept him relevant at 170 pounds deep into his career.
No verified database information is currently available for Ellis Turner, so details on his record, ranking, and background will be confirmed closer to fight night.
Why it matters
- Magny's appearance at UFC 330 adds an experienced welterweight name to what is already a high-profile card headlined by a lightweight title fight between Islam Makhachev and Ian Machado Garry.
- At 38, Magny continues to take on fights that test his standing in a loaded division, making his performance here a meaningful measure of where he sits in the welterweight pecking order.
- Turner's inclusion gives a rising fighter a significant platform against one of the most battle-tested opponents available at 170 pounds.
