Leon Edwards will allow Jorge Masvidal yet another UFC welterweight title opportunity if the Brit is able to dethrone the seemingly unbeatable champion Kamaru Usman.
Edwards will get a chance at redemption for his loss to Usman back in 2015 when the pair meet at UFC 278 in Salt Lake City, Utah with the belt on the line. The Brit has lost three times in his career, most recently against the Nigerian before heading on a ten-fight unbeaten run.
But with one of his defeats being an early-career disqualification and the other a razor-close split decision, the only one that has likely stuck with him has been his bout with Usman. And should he get through his challenge in August, he has said that he would be willing to finally settle his years-long feud with Masvidal and put his belt on the line to do it.
