Leon Edwards is set to face Sean Brady at UFC London, marking his first fight since losing the welterweight title, with hopes of returning to championship contention following past victories over Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington.
Leon Edwards’ UFC London media day scrum? It mirrored much of his UFC journey—never straightforward, often longer than anticipated.
This Saturday, Edwards steps into the octagon against Sean Brady in the main event at the O2 Arena. It’s a pivotal bout for “Rocky,” marking his return since dropping the welterweight title to Belal Muhammad at UFC 304 last July.
During his media session, chaos ensued when the hotel fire alarm blared repeatedly. But Edwards? He just rolled with it. Check out some clips below from MMA Crazy if you fancy a peek at the pandemonium.
A victory this weekend would keep Edwards in the thick of the championship chatter. At 33, he’s no stranger to dramatic comebacks—remember that knockout against Kamaru Usman at UFC 278 in August 2022? He defended his title successfully twice after that, first against Usman again at UFC 286 and then against Colby Covington at UFC 296 in December 2023.
