But this card was a bit stronger than you normally get when they dish out \u201cApex slop\u201d. And then the main event of Amir Albazi vs Tatsuro Taira fell off the card. Sigh.

While Magny has lost back-to-back fights via T\/KO, and has only won one of his last four, he\u2019s only lost to the top young prospects at 170 pounds during that span (Carlos Prates, Michael Morales, Ian Machado Garry).<\/p>\n<p>His opponent on Saturday is not one of this crop \u2013 it\u2019s a fellow past his prime veteran, Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos.
