Gilbert Burns is aiming for a finish of Neil Magny.
In his first fight since his ‘Fight of the Night’ against Khamzat Chimaev, Burns shares the Octagon with Magny at UFC 283, the upcoming pay-per-view scheduled for Jan. 21 at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro. He lost to ‘Borz’, but Burns’ performance was enough for UFC president Dana White to promise him a ‘big fight’ for his next appearance. That led to Magny, the all-time leader in wins in the welterweight division.
During an appearance on the Believe You Me podcast, ‘Durinho’ explained why he needs more than a win against Magny.
