Although he is one of the most competent MMA hunters in the world, Leon Edwards always has an extremely calm attitude that can sometimes be considered a weakness.
The coming Saturday Leon Edwards wants to remind the world that he is one of the best welterweight hunters on the planet when he is facing the American wrestler, Sean Brady.
Edwards has not fought anymore since he lost his title to Belal Muhammad on UFC 304 last July and hopes that he can climb back to title conflicts with a victory over Brady.
In anticipation of their enormous collision in the O2 -Arena in London, Brady has criticized Edwards for his attitude during the fighting week, claiming that the Brit overlooks him by focusing on a trilogy fight against Muhammad.

During an episode of his podcast, Rogan told former UFC heavyweight, Brendan Schaub a story about when he had to save a bodyguard from a potential Edwards that was knocking after he had focused on a nightclub.
“There was this guy, I don't want to say for whom he worked, but he was a bodyguard and he spoke to Leon Edwards when Leon was with me, I brought Leon to a show, Leon did my podcast when we went, and did a show with (Dave) Chappelle, then we all went to this club.
“It was at the end of the night and this guy decided that he would kick everyone out and for some reason he took out Leon Edwards and came to his face.
“He said,” Hey man, I f – – you said it's time to leave, “and then I got between them and said,” I know you probably made some F – mistakes in your life, you are about to make the biggest. “
“I pulled him aside and he went like a spirit, I go” that's one of the worst bastards – on the planet, “” Rogan continued.
