UFC Fight Night: Magny vs. Prates
mixed martial arts event in 2024
UFC Fight Night: Magny vs. Prates (also known as UFC Fight Night 247, UFC Vegas 100, and UFC on ESPN+ 105) was a mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that took place on November 9, 2024, at the UFC Apex in Enterprise, Nevada, part of the Las Vegas Valley, United States.
Background
This was the first UFC event held in Nevada since cannabis was officially removed from the state's list of banned substances. At the beginning of 2024, the Combat Sports Anti-Doping (CSAD) and Drug Free Sport organizations removed cannabis from their banned substances list when the UFC shifted its anti-doping testing from the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) to CSAD. On October 30, 2024, the Nevada State Athletic Commission also announced its decision to remove cannabis from the state's list of prohibited substances. They stated, "The possession, use, or consumption of cannabis or cannabis products will not be considered an anti-doping violation."
A flyweight bout between former two-time UFC Flyweight Champion Brandon Moreno and Amir Albazi was expected to headline the event. They were previously expected to meet at UFC Fight Night: Moreno vs. Royval 2 earlier in the year but Albazi withdrew due to a neck injury. However, it was announced a day later than that report that the bout was moved to UFC Fight Night: Moreno vs. Albazi one week before this event.
A welterweight bout between Neil Magny and Carlos Prates served as the event headliner.

Why this record matters
The subject matters to the history & society register because the source frames it as mixed martial arts event in 2024. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Chronology, provenance and viewpoint should be read together before a broad social or political interpretation is accepted. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 10, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q130049115. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2024.
Official terminology may obscure informal participation, dissent or communities documented only indirectly. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
