Leon Edwards on Darren Till’s potential move to middleweight: ‘I wish him all the best’

Leon Edwards was once vying for a shot at his fellow Englishman and welterweight Darren Till, but as far as “Rocky” is concerned, there was “nothing personal” between the two in terms of genuine animosity.

The British duo became quite volatile discussing their potential clash at the initial UFC London press conference earlier this year. However, in light of Till’s recent social media hint with regard to a future at middleweight, Edwards underlined that he has no underlying issues with “The Gorilla”.

“I’m already number one in the U.K., I think I’ve proved that point already,” said Edwards, who faces former lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos in the main event of UFC San Antonio this weekend.
