Nigerian-American Kamaru Usman will look to reclaim his welterweight championship when he faces Leon Edwards in the main event of UFC 286 at the O2 Arena in London, England on the evening of Saturday 18 March 2023.
Edwards (20-3, 1 NC) claimed a stunning win over Usman (20-2) to dethrone the division king when the pair met at UFC 278 in August 2022. It was the second clash between the fighters, with ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ having beaten ‘Rocky’ via unanimous decision when they first met in 2015.
