UFC Argentina Results: Full results from UFC Fight Night 140 main card
UFC Argentina: Magny vs. Ponzinnibio took place in Buenos Aires on the 17th of November. The show had a lot to offer up front, with Neil Magny and Santiago Ponzinibbio headlining the fight.
Both men have attempted to reach the next level which has somehow evaded them over the course of their careers. They entered this fight hoping that a win here would be enough to set them apart enough to grasp that metaphorical brass ring that's always on offer in the UFC.
In the co-headliner of the night, Ricardo Lomas and Darren Elkins were set to face off against each other. Lomas was the one fighter on the card who desperately needed a fight heading into the card. Once considered one of the top fighters of all time and a title contender, he was on a two-fight losing streak. He did not face an amateur either, with Darren Elkins being one of the top fighters currently in the company. Coming off a loss, he was hoping for a win.
