Leon Edwards to Headline UFC London in 2025

Leon Edwards has announced he will headline a UFC Fight Night event at the O2 Arena in London on March 22, 2025, marking his return to the Octagon after losing his welterweight title to Belal Muhammad in July 2024. Although no opponent has been confirmed, potential matchups include Sean Brady, Jack Della Maddalena, and possibly a rematch with Jorge Masvidal, as the welterweight division remains competitive. Edwards, a former champion, aims to reclaim his title and has expressed renewed motivation following a break from the sport. This fight will be Edwards' fifth consecutive main event and his seventh bout in England. Fans are eager to see how he will bounce back after a challenging loss and who he will face in his comeback. The event promises to be significant for both Edwards and the welterweight landscape as new contenders emerge.
