Flyweight champion Sunny Edwards has vowed to play nice with promoter Eddie Hearn in a bid to secure a unification clash with Julio Cesar Martinez.
Edwards is eyeing a title clash with Martinez if he successfully defends his title against Muhammad Waseem this weekend in Dubai. The Mexican is a familiar foe to Edwards having fought his brother Charlie in a fight that was declared a No Contest after an illegal body shot.
With an eye on the biggest and best fights, Edwards has explained how his feud with Hearn came about but is currently focused on his own ambitions. “Eddie is a great promoter and he knows what he is doing," Edwards told Mirror Fighting . "He knows that the fight between me and him can be pushed as the biggest flyweight fight in a long time. Depending on who you ask we are arguably the biggest two fighters in the division. No.1 vs No.3 why not?
