Main Event Cagewalks Time: Leon Edwards vs Sean Brady
The headline fight of the night will see Leon "Rocky" Edwards return to action in front of a home crowd, taking on rising contender Sean Brady in a welterweight showdown.
Edwards, the former UFC Welterweight Champion, is looking to bounce back after losing his title to Belal Muhammad in Manchester last summer. He was initially set to face Jack Della Maddalena, but a last-minute change has brought in Brady, who has been on a strong run in the division. Brady, currently ranked #5 in the welterweight rankings, has recently secured wins over Kelvin Gastelum and Gilbert Burns. His only professional defeat came against Muhammad in October 2022.
The main event is expected to start at around 10:00 PM GMT, so you can expect the fighters to be walking to the cage at around 9:45 PM GMT.
