UFC welterweight champion British Leon Edwards The next defense of the belt will take place in his homeland. This was announced by promotion CEO Dana White.

On December 16, in the main event of UFC 296, Edwards won by unanimous decision. Colby Covington.

“Obviously it makes a lot of sense to get him a fight in England when you look at his record. He beat Usman twice and just beat Colby.

I said that if Kamaru didn't exist, Covington would reign over the division. And Edwards beat them both. Much respect to him, he was incredible on December 16th,” White was quoted as saying by MMA Fighting.
