On Twitter, pro fighters and pundits reacted to the match.
This is gonna be a good one. Excited to see this new kid fight. Magny is the real test for anyone looking to make a name in the division #UFCVegas57

Neil Magny vs. Shavkat Rakhmonov up next. Excited to see if Rakhmonov, one of the top prospects at 170, can take the next step toward contention.
