UFC London Main Event: Edwards Battles Brady in Welterweight Clash

MMA news

Welcome to the live blog coverage of the highly anticipated welterweight main event at UFC London, where Leon Edwards faces off against Sean Brady at the O2 Arena this Saturday.

Former UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards returns to the octagon for the first time since losing his title to Belal Muhammad at UFC 304 in July. Confident that his previous performance was an anomaly, the 33-year-old Edwards is determined to make a strong statement against Brady and earn a rematch with Muhammad.

Sean Brady, currently ranked No. 5 in the welterweight division, boasts an impressive record in the UFC, with five consecutive victories before his defeat to current champion Belal Muhammad in 2022. Since then, the Philadelphia native has bounced back with a submission victory over Kelvin Gastelum and a unanimous decision win against Gilbert Burns last September. Brady now has a significant opportunity to solidify his position as a top welterweight contender and potentially secure his own rematch with Muhammad.
