British fighter Leon Edwards is odds-on to beat Belal Muhammed in UFC 304 main event

The UFC heads to Manchester, England this weekend with Leon Edwards odds-on with UK Betting Sites to successfully defend his Welterweight title against Belal Muhammad in the main event of the evening.

Edwards and Muhammad have met previously back in March 2021 with the fight unfortunately ending in a No Contest due to an accidental eye poke by Edwards on Belal.

Fast forward more than three years later though and they face off once again but this time the Welterweight title is on the line in what will be Edwards third defence of his belt after wins over Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington.

Bet365's latest betting odds ahead of the event put Edwards as the clear favourite at 2/5 with those odds giving an implied probability of 71.4% that the Birmingham fighter defends his belt once again.

Tom Aspinall favourite in co-main event of the evening against Curtis Blaydes

We've got another rematch in the co-main event of the evening where Interim Heavyweight Champion Tom Aspinall will face off against Curtis Blaydes.

Aspinall fought Blaydes at UFC Fight Night 208 back in July 2022 where the fight ended in 15 seconds with Blaydes winning by technical knockout after Aspinall suffered a bad knee injury.

Fast forward to nearly two years to the day and they face off again but this time for the Interim belt after Aspinall beat Sergei Pavlovich in the first round back in November.

Bookies put Aspinall as the heavy favourite to win this bout with the latest odds suggesting an 80% chance that he defends his interim belt.
