10 UFC Fights That You Cannot Miss In May

8. Neil Magny Vs. Vicente Luque - UFC Fight Night 151

While there's plenty of movement at the top of the UFC's welterweight division, there's also plenty going on near the bottom too as fighters try to break into the top 10.

Vicente Luque and Neil Magny are two fighters who have the potential to be the next big threat at 170lb, which is what makes their fight so exciting. They both have contrasting approaches to fighting, so how that will play out inside the Octagon is extremely intriguing.

Magny has a grinding grappling style that isn't very pleasing on the eye, but is extremely effective against his opponents. He's managed to take out former UFC champions such as Carlos Condit and Johny Hendricks in impressive fashion, which is nothing to shake a stick at.

Luque, however, is an all-action fighter who is constantly looking for the finish on the feet or on the ground. He's built up a reputation of being one of the most exciting fighters in the UFC right now and for a very good reason. His fight with Bryan Barberena was a shoe-in for Fight of the Year, until Israel Adesanya and Kelvin Gastelum fought at UFC 236.

His versatility and eagerness to finish the fight in any kind of fashion is why so many fans are high on him right now. However, Magny could have the sort of fight style that shuts the Brazilian's dangerous game down.
