Dave Lovell insists we didn’t see nearly the best version of Leon Edwards when he fought Belal Muhammad at UFC 304. Edwards (22-4 MMA, 14-3 UFC) lost his welterweight title to Muhammad (24-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) by unanimous decision last July. Edwards reiterated his discontent with having to fight in the middle of the night in Manchester to cater to the U.S. pay-per-view time, which he says heavily impacted his performance. His head coach agrees. “There were some major factors leading up to the fight, forget the minor injury apart,” Lovell said on “The Ariel Helwani Show.” .
