It appears one of the top welterweights in the world is ready to get back to work after his longest break from competition in more than six years. Neil Magny (19-5 MMA, 12-4 UFC), who hasn’t fought since earning a unanimous-decision win over former UFC champion Johny Hendricks at UFC 207 in December, has been dealing with injury issues all this year. He’s finally healthy, though, and said he’s ready to return to action. Magny, No. 10 in the latest USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA welterweight rankings , has won 13 of his past 15 UFC appearances. On top of beating Hendricks, the 29-year-old also owns recent wins over Hector Lombard, Kelvin Gastelum and Erick Silva
