Sign up for ESPN+ right here, and you can then stream the UFC live on
your smart TV, computer, phone, tablet or streaming device via the
ESPN app. An upcoming
Ultimate Fighting Championship card will add a pivotal
welterweight clash. On Wednesday morning,
MMA Junkie reported that Belal
Muhammad and Sean Brady
would square off at an upcoming UFC Fight Night event that will go
down on Dec. 19.
Muhammad (17-3) is currently riding a three-bout winning streak. In
his latest Octagon appearance, “Remember The Name” upended Lyman Good
thanks to a decision at UFC on ESPN 11 back in June. Prior, he
submitted Takashi
Sato via rear-naked choke in the third round of their UFC 242
encounter, taking home a performance of the night bonus. The
Roufusport representative also edged Curtis
Millender via unanimous decision at UFC 236.
A former
Cage Fury Fighting Championships title holder, Brady is putting
his perfect 13-0 record on the line against Muhammad. After signing
with the UFC, the 27-year-old overcame both Court McGee
and Ismail
Naurdiev via decision at UFC on ESPN 6 and UFC Fight Night 169,
respectively. The last time he competed, he rendered Christian
Aguilera unconscious via guillotine choke at UFC Fight Night
175. The second-round technical submission victory earned him a
performance of the night bonus.
The UFC has yet to give an official title to the upcoming Dec. 19
lineup. The card also includes a middleweight clash between
Deron
Winn (6-2) and Antonio
Braga Neto (9-3).
