Sean Brady doesn’t think highly of Ian Garry and believes he can dominate the Irishman in a potential clash.
Brady welcomed Kelvin Gastelum back to welterweight on Saturday at UFC on ESPN 52 at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas. Brady thoroughly dominated Gastelum for the entirety of the fight before submitting him in the third round. With the win, Brady bounced back from his first career defeat at the hands of Belal Muhammad at UFC 280 last year.
The standout grappler subsequently redirected a callout to Garry, whom he had also mentioned in the lead-up to UFC Austin. Brady had previously highlighted Garry’s questionable gym etiquette, which includes consistently recording sparring sessions.
Brady reiterated his dislike for “The Future,” and expressed confidence in his ability to impose his will on Garry during a post-fight media scrum on Saturday.
“Just the way he went about his whole thing with his team, it rubbed me the wrong way. He rubs the sport the wrong way,” Brady said.
“I’m a true professional in the sport, and I just don’t like the way he walks around with the cameras and goes into the gym — he’s getting kicked out of Leon Edwards’ gym. Like he’s just always talking s—t about people, and it’s wack. I think he’s wack, and I’ll ragdoll him. I think he’s the easiest fight in the division. So if he can get through Vicente Luque, which I don’t think he will, because Luque is an amazing fighter. I heard they’re coming to Atlantic City in March. So we’ll see...if he wants to get into it on social media, it is what it is. But when we get into that cage, I’m going to do the same thing that I just did to Kelvin to him.”
Garry is scheduled to face Luque at UFC 296 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Dec. 16.
