The UFC 290 card has taken a hit just over one week out from the event as Sean Brady has been forced out of his welterweight matchup against rising star Jack Della Maddalena.
Multiple people with knowledge of the situation confirmed the news to MMA Fighting on Friday with Brady also posting a photo of himself receiving fluids or medicine on Instagram along with the caption ‘Day 4.’ News of Brady’s withdrawal was first reported on Twitter.
In the wake of the news that Brady was out, Della Maddalena is anxiously awaiting word on a potential replacement with the Australian fighter willing to fight “anyone” from 170 to 185 pounds, per his camp in a message to MMA Fighting.
As of now, the UFC hasn’t secured a potential opponent for Della Maddelena, who currently sports a perfect 4-0 record in the octagon with all first-round finishes.
Della Maddalena has been touted as a future title contender but rather than wait for a ranked opponent or compete at a later date, he’s staying in Las Vegas with hopes that he’ll still get to fight on July 8.
As for Brady, the unfortunate news comes after he was also forced out of his previously scheduled fight against Michel Pereira in March. The Philadelphia native has been waiting to bounce back from his first career loss after the fell to Belal Muhammad this past October.
Now it appears Brady will have to wait until a later date to attempt to put himself back in the win column after being forced out of UFC 290 while Della Maddalena awaits word on still potentially competing in a different fight.

Chargers News: Fight Erupts Between Bolts and Ravens After Late Hit on Justin Herbert – Sports Illustrated
Erin Blanchfield patiently awaits her next UFC assignment.
Although it’s not totally clear what that will be, Blanchfield (12-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) assumes an important matchup with Manon Fiorot (11-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) is likely. The two flyweight combatants have established themselves as top contenders in a division that awaits a championship rematch between champion Alexa Grasso and former champion Valentina Shevchenko while they both recover from injury.
“Yeah, it’s definitely stalling,” Blanchfield recently said during an online live stream for digital wallet platform HUMBL. “I feel like I’ve had a couple No. 1 contender fights now. But you know, I’m still pretty young and gained valuable experience in those fights. … Whether it’s an interim or not, I’ll beat (Fiorot), and then I should definitely get a title next.”
Although UFC CEO Dana White has indicated it’s next, no timeline has been revealed for Grasso (16-3-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) vs. Shevchenko (23-4-1 MMA, 12-3-1 UFC). Shevchenko had hand surgery in mid-September. Coincidentally, Grasso underwent hand surgery in early October.
Should there be further delays, Blanchfield wouldn’t mind seeing an interim title implemented. She’s healthy and ready to go, following a slight nasal fracture suffered in a unanimous decision win over Taila Santos in August.
“I haven’t been told about that yet,” Blanchfield said. I would definitely push for that. That’s something I’d definitely be interested in. I’m not sure when Valentina and Alexa are going to be ready to fight again. I know I think they’re on a similar timeline in their recovery. I would hope that if it ends up being longer, they’d have me and Manon fight for an interim.”

SACRAMENTO COUNTY – Two men died after they were shot outside of a bar in Sacramento County early Sunday morning, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said.
Deputies responded to Sacto By Night at 7121 Governors Circle at about 1:45 a.m.
A group of people who were leaving the bar got into a fight outside, leading to a shooting, deputies said.
The victims, who were two men, died at the scene, deputies said. One of them was the owner of the bar.
Investigators with the sheriff’s office believe a group of gang members who initially refused to leave the nightclub at closing is at the center of the incident. Those gang members apparently got involved in a fight in the parking lot, investigators said, with the suspected shooter being one of those gang members.
Witnesses described a white vehicle that took off from the scene. Deputies said the CHP located a vehicle matching the description and detained four people from that vehicle.
The people detained have since been identified as being allegedly involved in the shooting. Several guns have been recovered.
According to the sheriff’s office, the names of the suspects will be released once homicide and related charges are filed.
