Given new opponent
Luque is scheduled to compete against Joaquin Buckley in a welterweight fight at UFC Atlantic City on March 30, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Luque will fight at UFC Atlantic City, but it will be Buckley instead of Sean Brady. Going from Brady to Buckley does not favor Luque's chances of significantly going up the UFC welterweight rankings, as he is now fighting someone unranked rather than a top-seven contender. But by defeating a more inconsistent welterweight in Buckley, Luque could perhaps earn a better fight down the line, but only if he pulls off another win.

Not taking on Brady
Luque is not fighting Sean Brady at UFC Atlantic City, according to MMAJunkie.com.
ANALYSIS
UFC CEO Dana White may have announced a Brady-Luque fight, but the supposed bout's participants never signed a bout agreement because the former kept dealing with an undisclosed injury, which will keep him out for a while. Once expected to be main eventing UFC Atlantic City, it is unclear if that will continue being the case or he gets pushed off the card entirely. There is still a reasonable amount of time though, around two months, for the UFC to find a new for Luque.

Will take on Sean Brady
Luque is scheduled to face Sean Brady in a welterweight matchup at the UFC's March 30 event in Atlantic City, UFC president Dana White announced Friday via social media.
ANALYSIS
Luque was scheduled to fight Ian Garry at UFC 296 on Dec. 16, but the bout was canceled after Garry contracted pneumonia, so these will be Luque's first steps into the octagon since his win over Rafael dos Anjos in August 2023. "The Silent Assassin" owns a 22-9-1 pro record in MMA, including a 15-5 mark at the UFC level.

No longer fighting at UFC 296
Luque will no longer fight Ian Garry (illness) at UFC 296 on Saturday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The fight was called off once Garry caught the flu which later turned into pneumonia. Luque most recently earned a victory over Rafael dos Anjos in August, and it likely won't be long before his next fight is scheduled.
