Leon Edwards looked to extend his incredible winning streak when he faced a former champion. In just his second time competing in the U.S., Edwards took on former lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos in the main event of UFC on ESPN 4, which took place in July 2019. Edwards was able to take dos Anjos down to the mat early, controlling him for the majority of the opening round. The Brazilian was landing effective low kicks, while Edwards stayed long, throwing sniping elbows that eventually cut dos Anjos. The two continued to trade as Edwards was starting to really mark up dos Anjos with crisp combinations.
