10 British MMA Stars You Need To Know
6. Fabian Edwards
Fabian Edwards sits as the first undefeated star on this list and at just 26 years of age, his best years are most definitely ahead of him.
Hailing from Birmingham, Edwards made his professional debut at Bellator 179 and announced his cruel intentions by hurling a flying knee at an unsuspecting Rafal Cejrowski for the KO victory. This set the precedent for just how lethal 'The Assassin' could be with his terrifyingly accurate legs.
With front kicks capable of sending his rivals soaring through the air - combined with a left hand which routinely finds a way to hit its mark - Edwards enjoys ending fights with his high level striking prowess.
Yet, he's also well equipped to successfully take you down whenever he pleases and once you're on the ground a rear naked choke or armbar are never far away.
You may recognise Edwards as the younger brother of UFC British sensation Leon Edwards and if he continues to dominate every foe who stands before him inside of a Bellator cage, a Middleweight brother vs. brother clash could very much be on the cards in the future. Just imagine.
Edwards has plenty of time to further cement himself as a world-class Middleweight in the interim, so make sure you're keeping an eye on this explosive talent's career at this exciting early stage.
