Fernando Quiles Jr. - February 13, 2024
Ian Garry has some strong words for the MMA community before he steps inside the Octagon with Geoff Neal at UFC 298. Garry’s fight with Neal is a big chance for him to make a statement and move closer to fight the top of the heap at 170 pounds. “The Future” enters this fight as the number 10-ranked UFC welterweight, while Neal holds the number eight spot. It’s a fight with some bad blood too, as Garry once wore a t-shirt with an image of Neal’s mugshot. Somehow, Garry’s feud with online trolls seems to have overshadowed the animosity with “Handz of Steel.”
