Welcome to live coverage of the UFC London main event: Leon Edwards versus Sean Brady. This highly anticipated welterweight bout is taking place Saturday at the O2 Arena.
Leon Edwards, a former UFC welterweight champion, returns to the Octagon for the first time since his title loss to Belal Muhammad in July at UFC 304. Edwards, at 33, views his last performance as an anomaly and aims to prove himself against Brady to secure another shot at Muhammad.
Sean Brady, currently ranked No. 5 in the welterweight division, had an undefeated streak of five UFC victories before also encountering Belal Muhammad in 2022, resulting in a loss. The Philadelphia native has since bounced back with a submission victory over Kelvin Gastelum and a recent unanimous decision win against Gilbert Burns in September. Brady now has a significant opportunity to solidify his position as a top welterweight contender and potentially earn a rematch with Muhammad.
