UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards thinks a title fight against Conor McGregor would be massive. Edwards (21-3 MMA, 13-2 UFC) runs things back with Belal Muhammad (23-3 MMA, 14-3 UFC) in the UFC 304 headliner July 27 in Manchester, England. Former dual-champion McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) returns in a welterweight bout against Michael Chandler (23-8 MMA, 2-3 UFC) in the UFC 303 main event June 29 in Las Vegas. If both are victorious, Edwards would love to set up a mega fight with “The Notorious” towards the end of the year.
