A welterweight clash pitting Gilbert Burns against Sean Brady is in the works for an Ultimate Fighting Championship event on Sept. 7.
Multiple outlets confirmed that Burns and Brady have verbally agreed to the pairing following an initial report from MagicM_MMABets on social media. The bout is expected to be a five-round headliner, but that has not been finalized at this time. The UFC Fight Night card will also include a featherweight showdown between Calvin Kattar and Kyle Nelson.
Burns is looking to rebound from the first two-bout skid of his professional career after dropping back-to-back outings against Belal Muhammad and Jack Della Maddalena.
