Leon Edwards has been vocal in his fight against knife crime in the U.K., and it’s paid off. In a program led by Edwards, middleweight contender Darren Till and Jimi Manuwa, the UFC will be partnering with Onside Legacy Youth Zone to launch a youth mentoring program for kids aged 12-16 in London, Birmingham and Liverpool. There’s been a recent surge in knife crime in England, with horrific incidents occurring in Edwards’ hometown of Birmingham last year.
