10 British MMA Stars You Need To Know
1. Leon Edwards
2020 could be a very, very big year for Leon Edwards.
We've already mentioned just how talented his younger sibling is earlier in this list, but the older Edwards has set the bar quite high for his brother since signing for the biggest MMA promotion in town back in 2014.
Wins over Donald 'Cowboy' Cerrone, Rafael dos Anjos, Vicente Luque and Gunner Nelson already fill out his stellar CV and he boasts just two losses in his last 12 fights in the company - with one of those coming to current Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman.
The supremely accurate kickboxer with a fondness for takedowns has systematically dissected the majority of the foes who have been unfortunate enough to come to blows with 'Rocky' in the Octagon.
With former Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley now in his sights for UFC Fight Night London 2020, could Edwards catapult himself up the rankings with a victory?
If he manages to overcome one of the Welterweight GOATs, an Usman/Edwards rematch for the belt makes all the sense in the world and that could lead to Britain's second ever UFC Champion.
He's got a long way to go, but Edwards' story may be about to become the stuff of legend... so keep your eyes on him this year.
