Main Event: Sean Brady defeats Leon Edwards by submission (mounted guillotine) at 1:39 of Round 4

Sean Brady turned a short-notice opportunity into the biggest win of his career, venturing across the pond to defeat former welterweight champ Leon Edwards to close out Saturday night’s UFC return to London.

After a competitive first round where the two men engaged exclusively on the feet, Brady turned to his grappling and took the fight to Edwards, working to dominant positions, hunting for submissions, and landing quality strikes for the whole of the second and most of the third. As soon as the fourth round began, Brady put Edwards right back on the canvas, climbing to mount and sinking in a mounted, one-arm guillotine to secure the tap.

This was one-way traffic for the final two rounds and change, with Brady looking exceptional. He’s been tabbed as a contender throughout his UFC run and established himself as such here, running through the former champion, becoming the first to finish him.

For Edwards, it’s a bitter defeat on home soil and second straight setback, leaving with plenty to ponder as he heads back to the gym to figure out his next steps.

Co-Main Event: Carlos Ulberg defeats Jan Błachowicz by unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)

Carlos Ulberg and Jan Błachowicz squared off in a meeting of light heavyweights on different trajectories in the co-main event, battling back-and-forth for 15 minutes.

Ulberg entered on a seven-fight winning streak, facing off with a ranked opponent for just the second time, while the former champion Blachowicz was competing for the first time since July 2023, aiming to end a modest two-fight turn without a victory. Both men had positive moments, and there was no real point where either seized dominant control of the contest, making it fun to watch and difficult to score.

When the scorecards were totalled, all three officials saw the contest for the surging New Zealander, who moved another step closer to title contention with his eighth straight victory. This was the kind of measured, patient effort Ulberg continually needs to show as he progresses up the ranks, as it shows he has the skills and abilities to win competitive bouts against world class talents.

Kevin Holland defeats Gunnar Nelson by unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)

Kevin Holland got himself back into the win column in his return to welterweight, hurting Gunnar Nelson early and controlling the majority of the contest while avoiding a tricky spot midway through the final round.

Kevin Holland Post-Fight Interview | UFC London

Holland put Nelson on the canvas with a long right hand in the final seconds of the opening round, dropping him with a similar shot to the one that finished Joaquin Buckley a few years ago. Nelson survived to the horn, but Holland dominated the exchanges the rest of the way, save for a third-round arm-triangle choke attempt that the Texan patiently worked free from.

This was a strong showing for Holland after getting quickly submitted by Reinier de Ridder at the start of the year. He’s much better suited to competing at welterweight, and it will be curious to see if he commits to fighting in the 170-pound ranks going forward or continues to division hop.

Alexia Thainara defeats Molly McCann by submission (rear-naked choke) at 4:32 of Round 1

Alexia Thainara collected a first-round submission win over fan favourite Molly McCann in her short-notice debut, letting everyone know she’s a name to watch in the 115-pound weight class.

Thainara danced to the Octagon and showed zero signs of nerves, taking McCann to the canvas, dominating on the mat, and eventually working to the back, where she hunted down the rear-naked choke. While McCann defended the initial attack, Thainara was undeterred, adjusting her positioning, sinking in the choke, and collecting the tap.

An outstanding effort for the debuting Dana White’s Contender Series grad, who has now won 10 straight overall.

Following the contest, McCann announced her retirement, bidding farewell to the sport in front of the loving fans that have been in her corner throughout her career. She wrapped her career with a beautiful speech, and should continue to be an amazing ambassador for the sport in the UK and abroad.

Chris Duncan defeats Jordan Vucenic by submission (guillotine choke) at 3:42 of Round 2

Chris Duncan jumped guillotine and secured his second straight submission win, tapping out Jordan Vucenic in the back half of the second round of their main card pairing in London.

The Scotsman dropped Vucenic in the opening round with a clean right hand, spending the remainder of the frame controlling things with his grappling. Despite seemingly being the fresher of the two and having success on the feet, Vucenic drove forward into a takedown attempt and left his head outside, giving Duncan the opportunity to dive on his preferred submission and secure the finish.

That’s consecutive guillotine finishes for “The Problem,” who has won four of five since arriving in the UFC. He called out Terrance McKinney for a date in Miami, which might be too quick of a turnaround, but is a quality shout nonetheless.

Nathaniel Wood defeats Morgan Charriere by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

Nathaniel Wood collected his second straight victory and maintained his extended run of success competing on British soil, earning a professional win over game Frenchman Morgan Charrière in the opening bout of Saturday’s main card in London.

Wood put “The Last Pirate” on the deck in the opening round, connecting with a beautiful right hand down the pipe, controlling and dictating things for the remainder of the round. Charriere had a little more success in the second, catching Wood with one or two that made the GB Top Team man offer a nod of recognition, but the Brit maintained his technical superiority and speed advantage, cruising to a well-earned win.

Wood has now won all four of his UFC appearances in his hometown and 10 straight overall in London, further cementing his standing as one of the top talents just outside the Top 15 in the featherweight division. He’s 5-1 since moving to the 145-pound ranks, and called for a step up in competition next time out following this one.
