UFC 286: Edwards Vs.  Usman 3 full weight results, video – A fighter misses 3.5 lbs

The UFC is in the UK this weekend with UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards hoping to make a successful first title defense on home soil. His challenger will be the man he took the belt from, Kamaru Usman.

It’s a trilogy fight for Edwards and Usman. They met each other early in their octagon careers and on that occasion Usman got the best ‘Rocky’. Edwards hasn’t lost since.

The co-main event is sure to entertain with Justin Gaithjee taking on Rafael Fisiye in the lightweight division. The PPV also features an important middleweight clash between Marvin Vettori and Roman Dolitz. Popular Icelander Gunnar Nelson is also on the main card, with Ultimate Spoiler taking on Brian Barberena. Rounding out the main card is Scotland’s Case O’Neill and former title challenger Jennifer Mia.
