UFC seeks a short-notice opponent for Gabriel Bonfim ahead of
Nov. 7 event

Brady (19-2) was looking to build on his unanimous decision victory
over Joaquin
Buckley in May. The Philadelphia welterweight and Bonfim were
seeking to strengthen their positions in the division.

Bonfim (20-1) has won five consecutive fights, most recently
defeating former UFC welterweight champion Belal
Muhammad by unanimous decision in June.

The scheduled co-main event features a strawweight matchup between
Tatiana
Suarez and Virna
Jandiroba.
