The welterweight division has recently become one of the most stacked in UFC. Elite fighters constantly emerge from every corner of the globe. Competition for the title shot becomes cutthroat when everyone believes they deserve it. Contenders spend years grinding through opponents waiting for their moment. But some fighters get frustrated watching others skip the line ahead.<\/p>

Title shot politics can drive fighters absolutely crazy sometimes. Name value often trumps actual rankings in the matchmaking process. Former champions get immediate rematches or fast-tracked back to contention. Fighters with massive social media followings receive opportunities over more deserving contenders. This creates resentment among those putting in the work quietly. Sean Brady is one of them. He is of the belief that hard work triumphs everything else, and he is taking aim at ‘entitled’ welterweights after watching this pattern repeat itself over and over.<\/p>

Sean Brady Calls Out The Division<\/h2>

Brady faces Michael Morales at UFC 322 this weekend in a crucial matchup. The American currently sits at #2 in the welterweight rankings<\/a>. He’s worked his way up through consistent victories and dominant performances. His only loss came against former champion Belal Muhammad. That defeat prevented him from getting a title shot earlier. Now Brady finds himself in position to earn that opportunity again. At the UFC 322 media day, this is what he said:<\/p>

“Everyone always says they deserve sh*t. If I don’t get a title shot after beating Morales, guess what. I will fight again. I will actually earn it.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>
