Shavkat Rakhmonov has set his sights on Neil Magny because no one else wants to fight him.
Following a stint with M-1 Global, Rakhmonov joined the UFC and earned finishes of Alex Oliveira, Michel Prazeres and Carlston Harris in his three Octagon appearances. The undefeated welterweight has already been compared to Khamzat Chimaev, yet another highly touted prospect who also found it difficult to find opponents after his arrival to the promotion.
Frustrated with supposedly being turned down by Li Jingliang, Rakhmonov decided to assume the role of matchmaker and took to Twitter to challenge Magny since he was willing to fight anyone.
