A 11-Fight winning streak broken! At UFC Kansas City, Ian Machado Garry proven why he should be feared in the welterweight division. The Irishman took on ‘Fighting Nerd’ sensation Carlos Prates on just 25 days’ notice. While many expected him to face a real challenge, Garry defied the odds in spectacular fashion, dominating the fight from start to finish. His performance was nothing short of a statement, proving that he is truly one to watch in the welterweight division. With this victory, Garry has now set his sights on the ultimate prize – the welterweight title, which is officially confirmed to be his next target.
With a career record of 21 victories and 6 defeats, Carlos Prates embraced the Octagon with a record of 11 straight victories, out of which 10 came by way of knockout. Ian Garry was locked onto his target. In what could be considered one of his best performances, the Irishman outclassed Prates to secure a unanimous decision victory. As the dust settled, Garry officially announced that he would be the backup for the UFC 315 headliner between Belal Muhammad and Jack Della Maddalena.
During the Octagonal interview, Garry revealed that he has been booked by the UFC CEO, Dana White, to be the official back-up fighter for the UFC 315 main event.“And this is what’s next for me: 21 days’ notice against Shavkat, 25 days’ notice against this man today. When, in two weeks’ time, I’m flying to Canada. I’m the official backup for the world title fight, and I’m next in line for that Chute Boxe.” As he made the announcement, reporters inquired about it to UFC CEO Dana White, and his answer was a simple “yes.”
