Gilbert Burns believes ‘Badass’ Ian Machado Garry will land UFC championship: ‘There’s new blood coming’

Gilbert Burns is certain that Ian Garry has what it takes to be a UFC champion one day.

Standing at 13-0 and currently riding a six-fight win streak in the UFC, Garry has been a dominant young force in the welterweight division. He was most recently in action at UFC 292 where he faced Neil Magny and made easy work of the versatile veteran. Now, he’s looking to face Stephen Thompson, and a win against that caliber of opponent would see him very close to if not ready for a title shot.

Burns was recently on MMA Fighting’s Trocação Franca podcast and shared his thoughts about the prospects of the young Irishman Ian Garry.
