Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad meet again in a highly anticipated rematch at UFC 304. Edwards, the technically gifted striker from England, has proven his ability to control fights with his precision and defense. His recent victory on December 16, 2023, demonstrated his ability to adapt and overcome adversity in the octagon.
Meanwhile, Belal Muhammad, known for his relentless pace and stamina, enters the fight with a chip on his shoulder after their first bout ended without a winner. Despite Muhammad's impressive ability to grind out decisions, I believe Edwards will come out on top this time, winning by unanimous decision, thanks to his superior striking and fight IQ.
