UFC 296 offer: Get Leon Edwards to win at 50/1 on Betfair
British UFC fighter Leon Edwards takes on American Colby Covington in the main event of UFC 296 this weekend in Las Vegas.
And Betfair are offering new customers a huge 50/1 pay out on the Brit fighter to get the win!
Betfair:
'Chaos' has won just four of his fights by way of a knockout blow, four by submission and a huge nine times by decision, from his 20 bouts.
The American fighter has lost once by each result - losing to Kamaru Usman in both November 2021 and December 2019.
Prior to that Covington had only lost to Warlley Alves via submission back in December 2015.
Edwards on the other hand, has 21 wins and just three losses in his career at the age of 32.
At just three years younger than Covington, he's also just taller with a longer reach which could make a bigger difference in how they fight this weekend.
The Jamaican born fighter has also fought Usman twice, winning both times - in August 2022 which saw him win the Performance of the Night while winning the Welterweight Championship in Round 5.
Then in a rematch he went the distance to win convincingly by majority decision.

Edwards' three losses have come by decision twice, having never been knocked out or lost by submission with the other coming by way of DQ.
Notably though, he hasn't lost since strangely enough facing Usman, back in 2015 and is on a streak of 11 bouts undefeated.
This welterweight bout sees two fighters with strong records go face-to-face in the Octagon in the early hours of Sunday morning at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Edwards is the strong odds-on favourite and it should be his power that sees him retain the welterweight belt.
