Fansview MMA host David speaks with Ciaran Brady on 2024-12-07, fight week before Brady’s second professional bout on the coming Sunday. The original opponent pulled out on the preceding Friday; Jamie McAleese stepped in on short notice after recently fighting at Chaos. Brady says camp and fight week have gone smoothly—possibly his best fight week yet—and that he stays focused on his own game rather than scouting opponents, having watched only about three minutes of clips because fight footage makes him anxious. The bout is the co-main event beneath Daire Toman in the main event. Brady describes a meaningful milestone: he started MMA with Toman, trained through his first goals including Toman’s amateur bout era, and now shares a pro card with him while both bring their families, including Brady’s son Isaac. He says confidence is growing after his first pro outing—he once refused the pressure of travelling to Dublin—but imposter feelings still return. He plans to return to Cage Warriors in April if this fight goes well, while enjoying the comfort of fighting regionally close to home without heavy travel.

Kind: captions Language: en [Music] so I'm here with Mr Kieran Brady who's going to be fighting again in this second professional fight at your Fighting Championship is show that uh he's been on quite a bit it's a show that he's had belts on um thank you very much for joining me fight week I know obviously it's a very H it's very close to the show so I do appreciate your time how are you feeling fight week by guys David thanks for having me on again as normal um now everything's been going according to plan this week um no slip UPS nothing's nothing everything's going smoothly um probably could the best fight week I've had so far I would imagine yeah I could say that confidently yeah it's been not well so far it's been going good yet yeah and hopefully that continues but uh obviously there was obviously different opponent coming up uh there's been a change you were able to obviously get an opponent so fair play to to Jamie for stepping in in when you kind of the the first opponent was lost um what was your feelings or were you confident that Dei would get one cuz Dei quite good at filling in the in the gaps when when these things happen well this Friday and the that happened um I had just had a really good training session that there and I was feeling feeling Top Of The World To be honest there sometimes you can Mar the gym and you're feeling really really good sometimes you're completely opposite side of the scale you're not feeling so good but Friday luckily enough it was a great day for me um I was actually in the hard my haircut and was the buzz was good you know the boys were talking about the fight and the SP were coming to fight and all them were were having a crack and then I seen my phone ringing dly ringing and I knew instantly what what he was fing about but at the same time I didn't doubt for a minute that I wouldn't have an opponent I think well what's the crack and he goes your man's out but you want to know who you've got there just goes go on ahead and that was it simple as that you know there was no uh [ __ ] no no nothing it was all good news and bad news in the one th so it was um it was F it was no problem with me like at that stage it wouldn't matter who they said um to me I would have been confident enough anyway I was feeling good that there so I was happy enough yeah and that's good it's good that you're starting confident hopefully you're starting to get rid of that imposter syndrome that you was talk to me about um yeah and the fact that that that will that's obviously coming with time skill good days in the gym and and the fact you wanted to take anyone and and Jamie obviously had just previously fought uh chaos which wasn't too too far away and he's fighting again um so fair play like said to Jamie were you would you've been game planning because I know you're quite particular about things but a body for you is it it was more about your game than his game so if someone new comes in it it not that it doesn't matter but it's just it's not g out a window exactly what you said yeah no exactly what you said I have a certain game plan yes but it doesn't change whether the opponent's CH or whether it's team my game plan was to see him like i' only watched three minutes of Clips on seeing um simply because I've told you before I get so nervous watching them that I can it just causes me too much annoyance you know I'm like I worry too much then about what they're going to do you know so I'd only watch three minutes on them and so then I'm glad I hadn't invested much because really it it it means I haven't lost any time and it's the same with Jimmy here like I not invest too much time watching him I'll just do what I'm gonna do regardless you know yeah exactly because like that you could have watched two three hours of time just say on shame and then that's two or three hours that you could have put toward yourself your own training or or something like a a technique or something like that but yeah no so it's going to obviously you're going to be a co-main event and and then you've got Dar main event and and obviously people know you you started with Dara um how was this feel this must be kind of a special moment recently we had the two cores on on the same card and it was the first card they fought on it's like but for Cole and uh and Main Event a profession level tell me tell me what that means to you as a someone who started with that as a fighter and as a person well even just I think I'll go back a step or two there before we we just touched on it briefly that you saying maybe you know I'm starting to get rid of that imposter sendum that I was feeling and I'm getting a little bit more confident being a pro um like this week for example I'm like I'm bringing Isaac to the fight my son's coming to the fight on Sunday uh I have the confidence to do that whereas before whenever they went man to me about going to Dublin from the first one I nearly died I was like no too much pressure couldn't deal with that can't do it whereas now I just feel like I'm settled in a whole lot more the first one's out of the way just back to back to doing what I've done 14 13 times in the AL anyway you know it's fights a fight but then thinking deeper into it just as you were talking they like I would imagine this all at all that confidence is all coming with the fact that D is going to be here with me you know and he's done this done the camp together as you say I started with him and I guy would consider him of my best meets now you know he was at my w and just everything I do in MMA I I can't I can Rel it back to him because like when he had the C Wars Arm about that was my first goal I got it you know he gave me that goal and training with him every day I said people often whenever he wasn't training there whenever he wasn't fighting for um for however long as bre has been there a year or whatever kind of felt as if D had brought me to the pool kick me in without my arm bonds and then [ __ ] off for a we while you know left me left me to drown but uh now that he's back you know it is it's it's great boost to confidence for and it's it's great for both of us you know even Friday there we're s in the trans we pushing hard and we just look up and see each other we just smile because we know that if everything goes well on Sunday we've trained hard enough everything the outcome should be good and the memories we're going to make for ourselves and for our kids his child is going to be there too and even they can even far enough even if the comes like if I say I don't win and he wins or the opposite way around or whatever the fact that we're both still there with I have my family there he has his family there and you know if I suppose if it wasn't for him getting me into it then that this wouldn't be happening but the joy even for my wife we sit and talk about this often like you know the fact that meor his headline I'm just beneath him it's it's that's that's a bonus for me as it is so you know even if the fact doesn't go so well obviously I'm still going to try best to win the fight but I'm just happy to be in the sport I'm happy to be making memories like this with my friends now and it's it's amazing it's probably the best way to put it and I'm very grateful that that he obviously shouted up got the opportunity to do it yeah no it is quite a special moment when I seen that I was like this is I I like that's why I do these interviews I I want to show people The Human Side to and and what it means and and then you spoke a lot about family and dar and what he means to and and that's what I want to get across cuz when I saw I was like this is this is a good good special moment and yeah look even from like not just with me in terms of the MMA like my like like Rebecca and I I'm sure you see he's about all the shows now and part of Jess's team there and she absolutely loves it you know and we really do feel like we're part of the community now you know and obviously I'm saying from the start that wouldn't happened if it wasn't for d h man you know helped me along at the start and he really did put a lot of effort in for me so now we kill each other numerous times a week like but we're such good good friends and for the two of us to be able to do this yeah it's it's both for families brilliantly you know it'll be a good day hopefully all been well it'll be a good day hopefully hopefully it will be obviously there's obviously two opponents that you need to both get past and H they're two good fights and I'm really looking forward to them there's a couple of guys back from TS as well really lvy I'm really excited to see look always withi show they're always stacked from top to bottom like you know there as I'm saying there's times I've been sitting down the keys door and D is still there and thought right I wonder what fight's coming out next and then you look up and you see somebody you not man you're like holy how is he on this part on the show you know and that just shows you the dep he has in his Bight always like so that's always been the way of it with thaty shows like we've always been stack from top to bottom yeah and the fact that someone that might be like and I like that as well that amateurs don't get caught up in their names or their skills or or things like that they don't mind being that far down on Dei show because they they like the show like you've talked to me numerous times about how good it is to be on the show and you can see by the there's like a core group of Fighters that always come back to that show like there's people that are just always on that show and it just shows what he does and and the matchmaking I think is fantastic but um yeah this weekend's going to be good like I said I I've seen your wife go around the cage I've been there with you at the cage door me that's why I love when not that I don't love when you're not when fighting but we always have the chance see this fight see that fight um it's always a good show how do you feel about being back on on your in general obviously You' done fantastic on cage Warriors um but you said that a lot of nerves came with this just just the step I'm not saying a step back but like coming back to the regional does this make you a little bit more relaxed does this suit you more is this how you want to plan the path forward is build off the regional yeah like well it was Absolut it was there's no reason why I shouldn't you know um I think obviously if all goes well I'm still going to get back on K what here in April you know um and that was always the plan but I I you get a chance to fight in Dy show for me it's great because it's all my comforts you know it's my Home Comfort I get to cut we where I want I don't have to travel anywhere get the train you know there's a good Buzz around the gym when the show coming up because you always have one or two fighters on it and it's good I'm just happy to happy to yeah happy to be back happy to be have a close for my f for all the fans all it's easy to get to and I'm just really looking forward to something night hope you be a great night there yeah no it will it will and then obviously cage Wars really didn't come here that much this year as well so yeah yeah no that's another thing I'm not I'm not not a finished article yet like you know I have a lot of I have a lot of work to do still as I'm saying understand about that imposter send them sometimes that sneaks back in mean I'm like [ __ ] maybe I'm not as good or I'll see somebody else doing something like right I'm not as good as him is that yet you know I need to get to that level but again that's part of the journey like I'm enjoy that's part why I love it I suppose I'm I'm I'm still every day working up knowing that then you you can get better like you know it's kind of never ending so uh that's good I'm enjoying it really enjoying it yeah and that's why I like your mindset and I like a lot of people you go on cage where you start getting carried away with themselves whereas you go no I can get better and and I think that's why you're going to go very very far because not that you're not happy but you just know that there's always more out there no matter how long you're in or how long you're doing it thaty probably tell you when he's fighting think he always learn more everyone will learn more and your attitude your humbleness is just I that's what kind of endear you to me and I have great time for you but I can't wait to see you fight this weekend I'm going to let you go I know it is so close to the fight and I do appreciate your time is there anything you want to say before you go and thank you again so much no look we we'll
