What. A. Stunner! UFC278
Edwards started UFC 278 strong . In Round 1, he became the first man to take down Usman. He mounted and took the back, but wasn’t able to muster up much offense. Usman had largely dominated all facets of Round 2, 3, 4, and the portion of 5 before the knockout blow. In MMA, it only takes one, however, and Edwards is now the UFC welterweight king.
Usman was considered by many, including UFC president Dana White, as the greatest pound-for-pound fighter in MMA prior to UFC 278. Usman’s first title reign ends with five defenses, including wins over Colby Covington, Jorge Masvidal, and Gilbert Burns. His winning streak was snapped at 18. Since December 2015, Edwards has not lost. In the nearly seven years since, Edwards has gone 10-0 with one no contest. Other wins included Nate Diaz, Rafael dos Anjos and Donald Cerrone.
The December 2015 loss came against none other than Usman. The two met at UFC on FOX 17 in Orlando, Florida. It was Usman’s second UFC bout and Edwards’ fourth. Usman defeated Edwards via unanimous decision.
