UFC 286 live stream: preview
The UFC sees the third fight between Jamaican-born Briton Leon Edwards and Nigerian Kamaru Usman for the welterweight title. The series is currently tied at one apiece, so this trilogy fight will decide a lot more than just who takes home the championship belt.
On paper, Leon “Rocky” Edwards has the upper hand. He won their last fight in August last year and the Birmingham-raised fighter will perform in front of a home crowd at The O2 in London. But the 31-year-old will certainly have his hands full – the “Nigerian Nightmare” has a 20-2 record and has won 15 of his last 16 fights. He was also victorious in the pair’s first fight in 2015.
That’s the main event, but there’s a lot more to enjoy. American Justin Gaethje takes on Rafael Fiziev of Azerbaijan in a lightweight bout, while there is a welterweight bout between Gunnar Nelson of Iceland and Bryan Barberena of the USA. And in the women’s flyweight, Brazil’s Jennifer Maia will wrestle Australia’s Casey O’Neill, who has gone undefeated in her nine bouts so far.
The main draw of UFC 286: Edwards vs Usman is expected to begin on Saturday, March 18 at 9pm GMT / 8am AEDT / 5pm ET / 2pm PT at The O2 in London. The cage walks are scheduled around 10:30 PM GMT / 5:30 PM ET.
