Another possible next fight is Gilbert Burns, who will face Jorge Masvidal at UFC 287 in a couple of weeks. Edwards himself claimed that he will be in Miami to watch the fight between the two former title challengers.

Fight wise it’s another great matchup. With his slick skills on both the ground and the feet –  and with a heart of a champion – I think Burns could prove to be the absolute hardest test for Edwards.
