Sean Brady vs. Kelvin Gastelum in the Works for UFC Card on Dec. 2
Rich Storry-USA TODAY Sports


Sean Brady will welcome Kelvin Gastelum back to the welterweight division at an Ultimate Fighting Championship event on Dec. 2.


The pairing was confirmed by multiple accounts. UFC Fight Night doesn’t have a confirmed location or venue at this time, but the card is also expected to include a middleweight clash pitting Jared Cannonier against Roman Dolidze and a bantamweight showdown between Rob Font and Deiveson Figueiredo.

Brady hasn’t competed since suffering his first career defeat in 16 bouts, a second-round TKO loss against Belal Muhammad at UFC 280 last October. The former Cage Fury Fighting Championships title holder began his promotional tenure with five straight victories, besting the likes of Michael Chiesa, Jake Matthews and Court McGee, among others.

Gastelum was initially supposed to return to 170 pounds against Shavkat Rakhmonov at Noche UFC on Sept. 16, but an injury forced him to withdraw from the bout. The Fight Ready representative is coming off a unanimous decision triumph over Chris Curtis in a middleweight contest at UFC 287 on April 8. Gastelum’s last 12 Octagon appearances have come at 185 pounds.
