Fortunately for Leon Edwards, he doesn't have to fight at 5 o'clock this weekend. However, there were more annoying games to play on Media Day on Thursday.
London, England is where the former UFC champion Welterweight Leon Edwards will head again after losing his title to Belal Muhammad on UFC 304 in the summer: a fight he desperately wants to go back.
12-1 (1 AD) In its last 13 fights, Birmingham-Native Edwards will try to grasp the following title shot against #5-ranger-arranged Welterweight Competent Sean Brady from the O2 Arena, who runs to the Octagon in a reasonable time.
Edwards would speak on the upcoming matchup with Brady and his intentions to rematch Muhammad before he was shockingly interrupted by an alarm that the former champion had, “WTF?”

Alarms cut Leon Edwards on UFC London Media Day
“Attention please. This is a test of the automatic fire alarm of emergency situations,” said the Intercom, while Edwards broke out.
“Please do not take any action …”
“I am about to run,” Edwards joked. “Uh, what did I say? I can't remember what I said …”
The pre-fight distractions had only just started for 'Rocky' while he kept taking questions from the media.

Minutes after the first alarm was sounded, Edwards was visibly shocked when the lights went out and an alarm sounded again and again.
“The emergency situation has been identified. We ask to evacuate the hotel using the nearest plate escape route
“Ok,” Edwards got out of his chair for a few seconds and was told that it was another alarm test.
After a few minutes, the Mediadag was normally again with Edwards jokes about who was behind the fire alarm that went … his former enemy Belal Muhammad.
“I have the feeling that Belal did,” said Edwards Grinnikend.
Despite the circumstances in his last fight against rival Belal Muhammad, the timing of all this and injuries he mentioned, Leon Edwards claims that he is an OK on his way to the UFC London Main Event, which will be cleaned up on Thursday.
