Bellator star Fabian Edwards plans to knockout Charlie Ward with same head kick that led his brother Leon to becoming a UFC champion.
Edwards, 29, looks to push himself one step closer to a title shot when he fights Conor McGregor's teammate Ward at Bellator 287 in Milan on Saturday night. 'The Assassin' picked up the biggest win of his career in May by knocking out MMA legend Lyoto Machida in London and Edwards looks to top that with a "clean knockout" of Ward. The Brit plans to earn himself a title shot by scoring the same knockout Leon did against Kamaru Usman in their welterweight title fight earlier this year.
"I wobbled Machida then finished him in my last one but I think I can get clean knockout over Charlie with same head kick that Leon did," Edwards told Mirror Fighting . "I throw that cross head-kick good, so if I was to go out there and do that same cross head-kick, I think that would be a better finish than my one over Machida.
