The UFC returns to the O2 Arena in London, England today for a UFC Fight Night event headlined by a former champion and rising welterweight contender.

The main event will see Leon Edwards attempt to rebound from losing his welterweight title to Belal Muhammad when he takes on #5-ranked Sean Brady.

The night’s co-main event features another former UFC champion in Jan Błachowicz, who is returning from a nearly two-year layoff to try and end Carlos Ulberg’s impressive seven-fight win streak that dates back to his second fight in the UFC.
