Now recovered from the coronavirus, Gilbert Burns will be in the corner for his teammate Vicente Luque’s fight on August 1st.
It’s been a tough month for Burns, who had to pull out of a title fight against Kamaru Usman at UFC 249 due to testing positive for COVID-19. Burns was replaced by Jorge Masvidal who lost a unanimous decision to Usman.
Now almost two weeks since his bad news, Burns revealed from a test taken July 16th that he is free of the virus.
Burns (19-3) is on a six-fight winning streak in the UFC.
