Interview

Quick read

Sean Brady revealed what provided extra motivation heading into his fight with Joaquin Buckley. Brady became angry when Buckley discussed their encounter at the Performance Institute and portrayed it as if he had dominated Brady. Brady took particular offense when Buckley allegedly said that Brady's wife and daughter couldn't save him, to which Brady responded by telling Buckley to keep his family's names out of his mouth. Buckley then denied making those comments, which Brady found frustrating and inauthentic. Brady also mentioned that he completely ignored social media for the final eight weeks before the fight and wasn't following other fighters' schedules or matchups in the top five of his division.
