MANCHESTER, England – Before they meet in the octagon, welterweight champion Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad had their first faceoff of fight week Thursday at the UFC 304 press conference.
UFC 304 takes place Saturday at Co-op Live (ESPN+, ESPN2, pay-per-view), which also hosted Thursday’s press conference, where 10 fighters convened before fight night. Afterward, they all came face to face.
Edwards and Muhammad immediately got close and started talking to each other and had to be separated by UFC CEO Dana White. Before it was over, Edwards made a move at Muhammad, who didn’t flinch.
