The fight week drama around Ian Garry continues to rage entering UFC 296 . Garry (13-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) has been the centerpiece of much conversation going into fight week due to facing former Kill Cliff FC training partner Vicente Luque (22-9-1 MMA, 15-5 UFC), his relocation to multiple gyms throughout training camp and the online backlash he’s received due to a social media examination into the relationship with his wife, Layla. Before fight week began, Garry said he was concerned about “the safety” of his wife and child . There was anticipation to hear from him during his appearance at Wednesday’s UFC 296 media day. Garry was the first fighter scheduled to speak, but did not arrive at the UFC Apex for his time slot, and as the hours wore on, discussion swirled that he would not talk to reporters. That materialized when the session ended and UFC officials confirmed to MMA Junkie and other media members that Garry would not be speaking.
