Leon Edwards will face Sean Brady in the main event of UFC London

Former UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards will face Sean Brady in the main event of UFC Fight Night London. Edwards made his last appearance at UFC 304 where he fought Belal Muhammad and lost his title. The Englishman hasn't fought since and is looking to get back in title contention with a win over Brady. 'Rocky' was originally scheduled to fight Jack Della Maddalena but the Australian ended up being scheduled to fight Muhammad for the title.

Brady on the other hand made his UFC debut in 2019 and has fought eight times in the UFC winning seven of those fights. His only loss came against present champion Muhammad.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Edwards said he would love to fight Muhammad again:

"I'd love to run it back with Belal. It's difficult to say he wins [against Jack Della Maddalena]. Like I said, I probably prefer Belal, he was the last guy to defeat me. Even though I had an off night, I feel like that's one where I need to get back. I truly believe I am the better fighter between me and him."
