Leon Edwards has suggested he will hand Jorge Masvidal a UFC title shot - if his rival begs for it.
The British star became champion last year after knocking out Kamaru Usman and he retained his title in an immediate rematch with the Nigerian at UFC 286 in London last weekend. Edwards comfortably fought his way to a points win on the judges' scorecards, and will now receive a whole host of new challenges to his throne.
This includes Colby Covington whom president Dana White suggested will be the next to challenge for the crown despite a period of absence from the octagon. However Edwards could also accommodate the winner of Masvidal's clash with Gilbert Burns that will take part at UFC 287 on April 9.
