UFC 304 Predictions: Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad 2 Preview and Pick
Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad are set to settle their scores in the upcoming UFC 304 pay-per-view event at the Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester, England. This will be their second meeting. Interestingly, their previous fight ended with no contest. Fans can look forward to seeing them in action once again, with the anticipation of a decisive winner this time.
Here’s a comparison between the two fighters: Leon Edwards, also known as ‘Rocky‘, recorded 22 wins, 3 losses, 0 draws, and 1 no-contest over 26 fights in his career so far. He stands 6 feet tall with a reach of 74 inches. On the other hand, Belal Muhammad, nicknamed ‘Remember the Name‘, holds a record of 23 wins, 3 losses, 0 draws, and 1 no-contest from 27 fights. Moreover, Muhammad is slightly shorter than his counterpart and stands 5 feet 10 inches tall.
Edwards is most likely to win this match. Although both fighters have equal reach, ‘Rocky’ can benefit from his height advantage, which could help him land effective body and head kicks. ‘Rocky’ was clearly in control before the fight ended due to an eye poke in their previous encounter.
The Jamaican-born is currently on a 12-fight win streak, which includes two title defenses. Conversely, ‘Remember the Name’ has a lower number of knockout victories, which could potentially work against him when facing Edwards, who is renowned for his powerful striking ability.
