White talked about some other fights on the card, including the wild finish to the fight between Neil Magny and Mike Malott. The UFC boss said the fight reminded people how good Magny is and that despite being in the UFC for so long, he still has a lot of heart and won’t be a walk in the park for anyone .
He also believes that Malott is very young in his career and still has the potential to become a welterweight contender in the future.
“Tonight was a big test for him, and I knew that coming in,” White said of Malott. “He looked incredible until the last minute of the fight and unfortunately that’s how it turned out for him. But he will learn from it, he will grow and we will see where he goes. But that won’t doesn’t mean he can’t be a star in Canada.
