UFC Fight Night 247 takes place Saturday, and you can join us for live round-by-round coverage and official results beginning at 4 p.m. ET (1 p.m. PT). UFC Fight Night 247 (ESPN+) takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

Two exciting welterweights are set to compete in the UFC's main event this weekend. Discover in-depth Magny vs. Prates predictions here.

The main event is a welterweight battle between long-time veteran Neil Magny, in his 34th UFC bout, taking on rising contender Carlos Prates, in his fourth UFC bout and first main event. Magny is looking to halt the momentum of Prates, who is riding a ten-fight win streak, as Magny himself looks to get back into the win column.

Optically and historically, Magny (29-12) is set up nicely to get the upset against Prates. "The Haitian Sensation" has alternated wins and losses in his last eight, entering this bout off an August knockout loss to Michael Morales. Additionally, Magny is an unheralded cardio king and the main event rounds are foreign territory to Prates.

In a 5-round welterweight bout in the main event, Neil Magny and Carlos Prates meet Saturday at UFC Fight Night 247 -- also known as UFC on ESPN+ 105 and UFC Vegas 100 -- at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
