UFC Fight Night: Edwards vs. Brady (also known as UFC Fight Night 255 and UFC on ESPN+ 113) is an upcoming mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that is scheduled to take place on March 22, 2025, at The O2 Arena in London, England.[1]
Background
[edit]The event will mark the promotion's 16th visit to London and first since UFC Fight Night: Aspinall vs. Tybura in July 2023.[2]
A welterweight bout between former UFC Welterweight Champion Leon Edwards and Jack Della Maddalena was originally scheduled to headline the event.[3] However, Della Maddalena was pulled from the contest in order to face current welterweight champion Belal Muhammad at UFC 315 and was replaced by Sean Brady.[4]
A light heavyweight bout between Alonzo Menifield and Oumar Sy was scheduled for this event.[5] However, Sy withdrew from the fight due to an injury, so Menifield was moved to UFC Fight Night: Cejudo vs. Song in February against promotional newcomer Julius Walker.[6]
