Sean Brady says title fight is close following dominant UFC London win over Leon Edwards

Fernando Quiles Jr. - March 23, 2025

Sean Brady feels he made quite the statement by submitting Leon Edwards in enemy territory. Brady took a short notice fight against Edwards in the main event of UFC London. Edwards was going to face Jack Della Maddalena, but plans changed when Shavkat Rakhmonov couldn’t accept the May 10 date to challenge Belal Muhammad for the UFC Welterweight Championship. Brady made the most of his opportunity, keeping Edwards grounded before securing a fourth-round guillotine choke for the win.
