Leon Edwards Goes Viral
UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards recently took social media by storm with an incredible trick shot that left fans in awe. The video of his impressive feat quickly went viral, showcasing his skills beyond the octagon.
The Real Deal
During one of his final pre-fight runs, Edwards casually kicked a basketball into the hoop with a left-footed volley from over 20 yards away. Despite some skepticism, Edwards confirmed that the shot was authentic, dismissing any comparisons to staged trick shots of the past.
Renewing Rivalry
Edwards is set to face off against former opponent Belal Muhammad in the main event of UFC 304 in Manchester. Their first encounter was cut short due to an eye poke, leading to a challenging recovery for Muhammad. The upcoming rematch promises to be a showdown to remember.
