Sean Brady calls out Ian Machado Garry or 'easiest matchup in the division' Colby Covington after UFC Fight Night 242 win
LAS VEGAS – [autotag]Ian Machado Garry[/autotag] or [autotag]Colby Covington[/autotag]. Those are the two names [autotag]Sean Brady[/autotag] wants following his latest win in the octagon.
This past Saturday, Brady (17-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) defeated former UFC title challenger Gilbert Burns (22-8 MMA, 15-8 UFC) in a dominant unanimous decision win. The welterweight bout headlined UFC Fight Night 242 at the UFC Apex.
In his in-cage post-fight interview, Brady called out Garry, but then in the post-fight press conference, he added one more name to the request.
"I just think Ian thinks he's God's gift to earth, and he's not, and I feel like everyone in this sport feel the same way," Brady told reporters backstage. "I'll fight him. I'll fight Colby (Covington). I think Colby is the easiest matchup in the division. I'll piece him up on the feet. I'll rag doll him.
"I'd like to fight Ian – he's an up and comer. I'm a little bit older than him, but I want to be here for a long time. He's undefeated and he's got some hype. Before, he said that he won't fight guys ranked behind him, but I'll be ranked ahead of him on Tuesday with that No. 6 spot. So yeah, maybe I'll let him fight me. We'll see how that goes."
Brady is expecting a child with his wife in February, and he'd like to log in one more fight before then. When asked if he thinks Garry or Covington would take fights with him, Brady felt good about his chances.
"You can't really turn down too many opportunities," Brady said. "I'm going to go home, asses my bumps and bruises, and we'll see where we're at. But Colby or Ian Garry sounds like a fun one. Maybe December or early January. Like I said, before February 13th."
