UFC 304: ‘Edwards vs. Muhammad 2’ Live Results and Highlights
The Octagon returns to Manchester for tonight’s UFC 304 event, a 14-bout fight card headlined by Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad.
Edwards (22-3 MMA) and Muhammad (23-3 MMA) first met back in March of 2021 where the end result was a no-contest ruling due to an accidental eye poke.
Leon Edwards will enter the contest on a thirteen-fight unbeaten streak. ‘Rocky’ was most previously seen in action at December’s UFC 296 event, where he scored a unanimous decision win over Colby Covington. Prior that, the Birmingham native was coming off back-to-back wins over Kamaru Usman.
Meanwhile, Belal Muhammad will enter tonight’s headliner sporting a ten-fight unbeaten streak, his most recent Octagon appearance resulting in a unanimous decision victory over Gilbert Burns. Prior to that, ‘Remember the Name’ was coming off a TKO victory over Sean Brady at UFC 280 in 2022.
UFC 304 is co-headlined by an interim heavyweight title fight featuring Tom Aspinall taking on Curtis Blaydes.
‘Honey Badger’ and ‘Razor’ will also be meeting for the second time. Their first bout was back in July of 2022 where it was Blaydes emerging victorious by TKO only 15 seconds into Round 1 due to a knee injury suffered by the Brit.
Tom Aspinall (14-3 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since claiming the interim heavyweight title with a first-round knockout victory over Sergei Pavlovich at UFC 295. Prior to that, the Manchester native had earned a TKO victory over Marcin Tybura.
Meanwhile, Curtis Blaydes (18-4 MMA) most recently fought and defeated Jailton Almeida (21-3 MMA) by KO this past March at UFC 299. ‘Razor’ has won four of his past five Octagon appearances overall.
