Overview

  • Ian Machado Garry said he will never fight Leon Edwards because he refuses to let Edwards profit from him, calling Edwards a liar.
  • Garry pledged to support Carlos Prates against Edwards at UFC 322 on Nov. 15 at Madison Square Garden and predicted Prates will knock Edwards out.
  • He is slated to headline UFC Qatar on Nov. 22 against former champion Belal Muhammad and says he intends to finish Muhammad to strengthen his title bid.
  • The bad blood traces to a brief 2023 stint at Edwards’ Team Renegade, where Garry was reportedly asked to leave and Edwards later said he gave Garry “a little taste” in sparring.
  • Coverage notes Garry has never recorded a UFC knockout, a point that contrasts with his public finish predictions and title guarantees.
