Leon Edwards defeated former UFC lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos at UFC on ESPN 4 event which took place in Sacramento, California. The fight went full five rounds and Edwards dominated the entire fight.
Although RDA did have his moments in the fight, it was Edward who was the clear winner. Inside the Octagon, Edwards looked mich bigger than RDA.
Immediately after beating Dos Anjos, the Briton called out current UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman and Jorge Masvidal who is coming off of the fastest knockout in UFC history. On the other hand, Edwards and Masvidal also have tremendous beef between them from a backstage altercation that took place earlier this year at UFC Fight Night event which took place in London.
