Sean Brady discusses his upcoming fight against Kelvin Gastelum at UFC Fight Night: Dariush vs. Tsarukyan

Kelvin Gastelum will make his return to the welterweight division for the first time in over eight years, having last fought in the division against Neil Magny in 2015.

He will take on No.8-ranked Sean Brady, who has only one loss in his professional career, against the No.2-ranked contender, Belal Muhammad. Brady is keen to bounce back from his loss in October last year.

Brady spoke about his matchup against Kelvin Gastelum in an interview with MMA Junkie and was respectful of his accomplished opponent. The Philadelphia native said:

“It was going to be me and Vicente Luque. Like me and him were DM-ing each other, he’s super cool and we were like agreed to do it and then they came to me with Kelvin, I’m like alright. Like he used to fight at 170, he’s fought for the title at 185. He’s had great fights, he’s had main events. He’s been doing this, he’s been at the top of the sport for a very long time and yeah, I’m excited to fight him. I’m hoping that his weight cut goes smooth and that everything goes well. But we’ll see about that, he’s a great fighter and I’m excited to just get in there and compete against them.”
