Irish contender, has pleaded his case for a sizeable climb in the official welterweight rankings following his UFC 310 title eliminator against Shavkat Rakhmonov — claiming he should be ranked at number two at the very least, rather than number seven.
Garry, a former Cage Warriors welterweight titleholder, co-headlined last month’s final flagship event of the year at UFC 310, dropping his first professional mixed martial arts loss in a back-and-forth decision defeat to former training partner, Shavkat Rakhmonov over the course of five rounds.
The defeat snapped Portmarnock native, Garry’s impressive winning spree of eight fights in the promotion, following notable wins over the likes of Michael Page, Geoff Neal, Neil Magny, Daniel Rodriguez, and Song Kenan of note.
