Jack Della Maddalena has been booked to fight Sean Brady at UFC 290 in July, according to a social media source.
UFC 290 will take place in Las Vegas during international fight week, and Della Maddalena’s addition to the card makes him the fourth Australian/New Zealand fighter at the event, as Robert Whittaker and Dan Hooker are both booked for the event, and Alexander Volkanovski is rumored to defend his featherweight title in the main event against interim champion Yair Rodriguez.

Della Maddalena is riding a 14-fight win streak, with all four of his UFC fights coming by first round stoppage. Brady will be Della Maddalena’s first top 10 opponent, after his last victory over Randy Brown broke him into the top 15.
Brady is currently ranked nine, with his last fight being a TKO loss to Belal Mohammad.
UFC 290 is scheduled to take place on July 8th at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas.
