Sean Brady rips Ian Machado Garry for claiming he should've gotten UFC 315 title shot
Sean Brady doesn't think Ian Machado Garry should be in the UFC title picture.
Machado Garry was angry that the promotion didn't consider him as a replacement opponent for Shavkat Rakhmonov against welterweight champion Belal Muhammad (24-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) in the UFC 315 headliner May 10 in Montreal. The promotion opted to give Jack Della Maddalena (17-2 MMA, 7-0 UFC) the shot instead.
Brady (18-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) dominated and submitted former champion Leon Edwards in Saturday's UFC Fight Night 255 headliner in London. Meanwhile, Machado Garry (15-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) is coming off a decision loss to Rakhmonov at UFC 310.
When asked if he'd consider facing Machado Garry next, Brady shut that idea down.
"I went out there, I took this opportunity – I heard he was b*tching that he didn't get the fight with Belal," Brady said on "The Ariel Helwani Show." "Bro, you lost your fight, What are you talking about? You came in second place. You don't get to be rewarded for that.
"It made the most sense for it to be Jack. (Machado Garry is) No. 7 at this point? Lost his last fight. I've won my last three, just beat a former champion who was a really good champion. I've got bigger things going on than Ian Machado Garry."
Instead, the now No. 1-ranked Brady has his sights set on either the welterweight title or a No. 1 contender bout.
"I would be interested in the loser of the title fight. I'd be interested in the winner of the title fight, or I'd be interested in Shavkat," Brady said.
