UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards has an upcoming fight to worry about, but he’s already considering what could happen beyond that.
Edwards (21-3 MMA, 13-2 UFC) has about a month until he attempts his second title defense when he meets Colby Covington in the UFC 296 main event on Dec. 16 in Las Vegas. Even with a stern challenge in front of him, Edwards said he “hundred percent” wants to move up and fight for the middleweight title. The Brit hopes to make U.K. history by doing so.
