The UFC was in London, England on Saturday, March 22 for UFC London. The primary occasion noticed Sean Brady taking over former welterweight champion Leon Edwards.
Brady was coming off a call win over Gilbert Burns to increase his win streak to 2. Edwards, in the meantime, suffered a call loss to Belal Muhammad to lose his welterweight title.
Finally, it was Brady who dominated Edwards from begin to end and got the submission win within the fourth spherical. Following UFC London, here’s what I feel needs to be subsequent for the welterweight contenders after Saturday’s end result.
Sean Brady
Sean Brady was searching for the largest win of his profession on Saturday at UFC London towards former champion Leon Edwards. Brady was ready to make use of his wrestling to dominate Edwards. He seemingly broke him down which led to him getting the submission win.
With the win, Brady is now within the title image at welterweight however with Shavkat Rakhmonov doubtless subsequent, he’ll want one other win to get a title shot. With that, a logical subsequent opponent for Brady is to struggle the loser of the title struggle between Belal Muhammad and Jack Della Maddalena.
Brady may predominant occasion a Battle Night time card within the fall or be on the identical card because the welterweight title struggle.
Leon Edwards
Leon Edwards is now on a two-fight shedding streak and his future as a contender is up within the air.
Edwards was dominated by Belal Muhammad and Sean Brady and must struggle beneath him subsequent day out. A struggle that does make sense is to face the winner of Geoff Neal vs Carlos Prates which takes place at UFC 314. If Prates wins, it could be an opportunity for him to beat a former champion. Whereas, if Neal wins, it could be an opportunity for him to stand up the ranks.
As for Edwards, beating both Prates or Neal would show he’s nonetheless a contender at welterweight.
