Leon Edwards and Colby Covington Make Weight for UFC 296 Grudge Match

Pre-Fight Press Conference Melee

British welterweight champion Leon Edwards and controversial American Colby Covington successfully made weight for their highly anticipated grudge match at UFC 296 in Las Vegas. The fighters had a heated exchange at the pre-fight press conference, where Covington mocked Edwards' late father.

Weight-In Results

Covington, known for never having weight issues, comfortably weighed in at 169.5lbs, under the 170lbs limit for the title fight. Edwards, on the other hand, came in at the exact limit of 170lbs, showing no problem making championship weight.

Edwards' Confidence

Edwards, 32, is looking to make the second defense of his welterweight title and is confident in his abilities to defeat Covington. He mentioned that Covington has been stopped before by TKO, choked out, and taken down, making him just a "normal fighter." Edwards and his team have developed a game plan to neutralize Covington's strengths and aim to take him out.
