Leon Edwards has entered a new echelon in the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s welterweight weight division.

Fighting into the championship rounds for the first time in his professional career, Edwards held off popular veteran Donald Cerrone for a unanimous decision victory in the UFC Fight Night 132 headliner at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang, Singapore, on Saturday. The 26-year-old Englishman has established himself as a contender to watch at 170 pounds, and he has already targeted Jorge Masvidal as his next potential foe. Edwards progress will be interesting to watch in the coming months, but first, let’s take a look back at his work against “Cowboy.”
