Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will send Rafael dos Anjos into battle against Leon Edwards in a welterweight main event atop the upcoming UFC on ESPN 4 mixed martial arts (MMA) fight card, official for July 20, 2019 inside AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas.
Now the event has an official poster.
Dos Anjos (29-11) is coming off a dominant win over Kevin Lee at UFC Fight Night 152, submitting “The Motown Phenom” in the fourth round of their headlining affair. It was a much-needed win for the Brazilian, who previously dropped back-to-back bouts to Colby Covington and Kamaru Usman.
As for Edwards (17-3), the streaking Brit has racked up seven straight wins over the likes of Donald Cerrone, Gunnar Nelson, and Vicente Luque, just to name a few. “Rocky” was looking to lock down a fight against Jorge Masvidal after the two got physical earlier this year in London, but the promotion opted to book “Gamebred” against Ben Askren, instead.
