UFC 278 features a title fight I’ve been excited about for years: A well-earned rematch between current pound-for-pound king Kamaru Usman and Leon Edwards.
These two faced off very early in their UFC careers, back in 2015, now both have risen to the top of their division and get to battle it out a second time. In the first contest Usman largely wrestled a very green Edwards to an unanimous decision, but both have improved dramatically since then. Usman has become one of the greatest UFC fighters to have ever graced the octagon, but Edwards has also had a great run. He hasn’t lost a single bout since the Usman contest and is currently riding a ludicrous 10 fight win streak.
Many believe Edwards represents the biggest welterweight threat to Usman at this time. I agree. Edwards is about as well-rounded a fighter as there is on the UFC roster. I’m interested to see how this one plays out.
