UFC Fight Night: Magny vs Ponzinibbio Fight Results |
Magny jabbed and leg kicked Ponzinibbio to start the third
round, looking more aggressive than he had in the first two. Santiago backed
him to the cage again, but let him off. Magny landed a long hook and ate a leg
kick that spun him around.
They traded crosses. The leg kick was Ponzinibbio’s most
effective weapon by far, and it hobbled Magny again. He unloaded with a
hook-cross that Magny absorbed. Ponzinibbio was feinting more than he was
throwing, even when he had Magny flat against the fence.
Magny jabbed and
Ponzinibbio looked for power punches before finally landing another leg kick.
One got the sense that if he just kicked Magny’s leg a few more times, the bout
would be over, but Magny held on. Magny landed a leg kick of his own, as
Ponzinibbio looked for a big right hand over his jab.
Ponzinibbio spoke to the cheering crowd in
Spanish after the bout, saying that this was a dream for him, after ten years,
to headline a fight in his home country. He called for a title shot in 2019,
for Argentina.
