Leon Edwards-Kamaru Usman Trilogy Headlines UFC 286 In London
The highly anticipated trilogy bout between UFC welterweight champion, Leon Edwards, and former champ, Kamaru Usman, is set to headline the Octagon’s return to London, England at UFC 286 on March 18.
UFC President Dana White officially announced the booking at the UFC Vegas 67 post-fight press conference on Saturday night. The pair will run it back for a third time after Edwards ended Usman’s three-plus-year title reign via an emphatic come-from-behind fifth-round head KO victory in their rematch back at UFC 278 last August.
