For <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/mma\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC<\/a> welterweight Ian Garry, his first professional loss came at UFC 310 against the undefeated Shavkat Rakhmonov. The Irishman had been riding high on a 15-fight winning streak since 2019. He was the golden boy with the perfect record and championship aspirations. And then Rakhmonov happened.<\/p><p>Now, as Garry prepares for his comeback fight against Carlos Prates at UFC Kansas City on April 26, 2025, he is taking a rather unusual approach to motivation. Most fighters try to forget their losses but not Garry.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/despite-huge-loss-diego-lopes-sends-his-regards-to-ufc-314-opponent\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Despite Huge Loss, Diego Lopes Sends His Regards to UFC 314 Opponent<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Soul-Burning Reminder<\/h2><p>In a recent interview with Ariel Helwani on the <strong>Ariel Helwani Show,<\/strong> the Irishman revealed something surprising about his daily routine. He has framed a photo of himself on Rakhmonov&rsquo;s back in the fifth round of their fight. The picture hangs in his bedroom, ensuring it&rsquo;s the first thing he sees every morning. When asked about his mindset heading into his upcoming fight, Garry got fired up immediately.<\/p><p><strong><em>&ldquo;I kind of wanted to get it and show you, but I framed it in my bedroom, me on Shavkat&rsquo;s back in the 5th round.

When Rakhmonov had to withdraw from a title fight against Belal Muhammad due to injury, Garry expected to be the replacement.

But maybe that is exactly what he needs. The UFC&rsquo;s welterweight division is packed with killers, and Garry must now climb back up the mountain the hard way. His fight against Carlos Prates represents a fresh start and a chance to rebuild. The fire in his belly seems hotter than ever, fueled by that soul-burning photo. As they say in fighting, it is not about how many times you get knocked down, it is about how many times you get back up. And Garry is definitely getting up with a vengeance!<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: Mark J.
