Leon Edwards willing to overlook Jorge Masvidal for Tyron Woodley fight: ‘Pay me and I’ll show up’

Top-five ranked welterweight contender Leon Edwards has been campaigning for a fight with Leon Edwards for the better part of a year but, no matter what he says or does, neither Masvidal nor the UFC brass seem particularly interested in the bout.

Edwards has had a grudge with Masvidal ever since ‘Gamebred’ blasted him with a ‘three piece and a soda’ backstage at UFC Fight Night 147 in London, England. But, seeing as though the ex-street fighter seemingly has no interest in settling the score inside the cage, ‘Rocky’ is open to a money fight with ex-welterweight champ Tyron Woodley.
