Gilbert Burns vs Sean Brady Predictions & Tips

Sean Brady is tipped to beat Gilbert Burns by decision.

Burns is on the downturn, but he has never been submitted and Brady is unlikely to tap him out.

Brady lacks fight-finishing power too, so we expect the American to outpoint Burns over five rounds.

  • Sean Brady has won 6 of his 7 fights in the UFC
  • Gilbert Burns has lost 4 of his last 7 fights
  • 8 of Sean Brady’s 16 career wins have been by decision
  • 4 of Gilbert Burn’s 7 career defeats have been via points

Gilbert Burns Form

Gilbert Burns is the #6 ranked welterweight contender with a professional record of 22-7 (6 KOs, 9 Subs).

Burns, who debuted in the UFC in 2014, enjoyed a six-fight win streak between December 2018 and May 2020 to earn himself a title shot.

The Brazilian came up short in his title challenge though, as he was knocked out in the third round by then-champion Kamaru Usman.

‘Durinho’ rebounded with a unanimous decision win over Stephen Thompson, only to then drop a decision to Khamzat Chimaev in his next outing.

Burns again responded swiftly to a defeat, submitting Neil Magny in the first round, and he backed that up a couple of months later by claiming a points win over Jorge Masvidal.

However, he has not recorded a victory since that April 2023 over ‘Gamebred’ in Miami.

The 38-year-old was beaten on points by Belal Muhammad last year, before being knocked out in the third round by Jack Della Maddalena back in March.

Sean Brady Form

Sean Brady is the #8 ranked welterweight contender with a career record of 16-1 (3 KOs, 5 Subs).

Brady compiled a perfect 10-0 record before inking his contract with the Ultimate Fighting Championship in 2019.

He made a successful debut that year, defeating Court McGee via unanimous decision, and backed that up with two more wins in 2020.

The 31-year-old American first beat Ismail Naurdiev by unanimous decision, and then claimed his first stoppage win in the UFC as he submitted Christian Aguilera in the second round.

Brady tapped out Jake Matthews in the third round of his first outing of 2021, and in his second fight of the year he beat Michael Chiesa on points.

His perfect record finally suffered its first blemish in 2022 when he lost his only fight of the year – a TKO loss at the hands of Belal Muhammad.

Brady did bounce back last December though, as he submitted Kelvin Gastelum in the third round.

Verdict

Sean Brady is the more accurate striker and has the grappling and submission skills to hang with Gilbert Burns on the mat.

That makes him a worthy favourite here, and we expect Brady to get the nod from the judges.
