Can Leon Edwards finally get a title shot?
‘Rocky’ has been looking for a UFC title for a considerable amount of time now. His body of work in the welterweight division has been phenomenal, so far. But inactivity has been a major issue for him recently. The British star hasn’t fought since 2019.
He will look to prove that he has used his away time for good and can make an easy work of Muhammad. But ‘Remember The Name’ is determined to massacre those plans. Also, Edwards has previously fought against current champion Kamaru Usman at 2015. It was his last loss in the UFC. No doubt, he wants to right that wrong as soon as possible.
Who do you think gets it done in the main event of UFC Fight Night: Edwards vs Muhammad? Let us know.
