UFC London Results: Sean Brady Subdues Leon Edwards
The UFC's welterweight division is shaping up with a potential new No. 1 contender hitting the scene. That man is Sean Brady, who showcased a career-best performance in his biggest fight to date. In a spirited battle on Saturday, Brady dispatched former UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards with a fourth-round guillotine choke. By the time Edwards tapped, the outcome felt like a foregone conclusion.
Brady's persistent offense on the feet and on the mat proved too much for a demoralized Edwards, who seemed unable to counter Brady's attacks. A noteworthy moment came in the third round when Edwards attempted a takedown, only to find himself on the bottom and dominated for the rest of the round.
