Sean Brady disclosed that his bout with Michael Morales was at risk of being canceled during fight week due to unspecified medical clearance issues with the athletic commission. Brady learned on Thursday that the fight might not happen, and uncertainty persisted through Friday. He only received confirmation that he would compete on Saturday evening, just before heading to the venue. Brady acknowledged that the behind-the-scenes stress affected his focus but took full responsibility for his performance. He emphasized that regardless of circumstances, a fighter must remain fully concentrated during the 15 or 25 minutes inside the octagon.
