Sean Brady silenced the partisan crowd in London by defeating former UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards at 1min 39sec in round 4 (submission, guillotine choke) at UFC Fight Night on March 22.

LONDON -
Brady (18-1) was overcome with emotion as he accepted the fight with Edwards (then 22-4, 1 NC) on Feb 19, according to MMAFighting.com, which he said on March 22 was a special day in his life.
"I literally took this fight the day I got out of the hospital with my wife with our newborn baby," the 32-year-old American said following his victory over the 33-year-old Briton at the O2 Arena in London.
"I knew this was a fight (where) I could do that (kind of performance) in. I can do that against anybody in the (welterweight) division.
I just showed that against one of the former most prestigious champions as of recently.
"So, yeah, I belong in the top three for sure.
(UFC president) Dana (White) gave me a wonderful opportunity to come out here. I love the UK fans, sorry I had to do that to your boy but lots of respect."
