Leon Edwards’ stretch of bad luck continues.
Edwards was scheduled to face Jorge Masvidal on December 11 on the pay-per-view portion of UFC 269. The welterweight matchup, which was featured, along with two title fights, on the poster for the PPV event, fell apart on Wednesday. According to ESPN’s Brett Okamoto, an undisclosed injury forced Masvidal from the card.
Edwards, who is currently the No. 3 ranked fighter in the official UFC welterweight rankings, is on a 10-fight unbeaten streak. He is coming off a June 2021 unanimous decision win over Nate Diaz.
