Me,” the 33-year-old told Bloody Elbow, when asked who would return to action first between himself and his younger brother.“November, for sure,” Edwards added, confirming that he would like to fight at Madison Square Garden for UFC 322.Although UFC 322 hasn’t officially been announced yet, it is expected that Jack Della Maddalena’s first welterweight title defence will headline the card.Della Maddalena was called up to fight Muhammad for the belt in May after being originally scheduled to face Edwards in London.And it was revealed by UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov in August that the Australian would fight his protégé, Islam Makhachev, a former lightweight champion, for the 170lbs strap in November. “I think JDM is fighting Islam Makhachev at MSG, so I want to be on the same card,” Edwards concluded.“I feel good, I’ve been training and helping [Fabian] in camp. Now I’m ready to go.“I’ve waited for the division to settle a little bit, and now I’m ready to go.”UFC Welterweight RankingsChampion – Jack Della MaddalenaBelal MuhammadSean BradyShavkat RakhmonovLeon EdwardsKamaru UsmanIan Machado GarryMichael MoralesJoaquin BuckleyCarlos PratesColby CovingtonGilbert BurnsGeoff NealDaniel RodriguezGabriel BonfimKevin HollandEdwards is a former UFC welterweight championGetty Images - GettyEdwards won his first UFC title in dramatic style back at UFC 278 in August 2022.‘Rocky’ had lost almost every round of his main event bout against Kamaru Usman, who was a dominant champion at the time.Then, in the final 60 seconds of their headline act, Edwards produced a picture-perfect head kick that knocked Usman out cold to win the UFC welterweight title.The Birmingham native then defended the belt in a rematch with Usman seven months later, before retaining it once more after five rounds with Colby Covington at UFC 296.Edwards was then outpointed by Muhammad in Manchester and failed to bounce back against Brady at UFC London.He remains the No. 4-ranked UFC welterweight, with only Shavkat Rakhmonov, Brady, Muhammad, and the champion Della Maddalena above him.Della Maddalena dethroned Muhammad of the welterweight title in Montreal at UFC 315GettyThe Australian is expected to make his first title defence against Makhachev at UFC 322GettyMakhachev, meanwhile, vacated the lightweight title in May to move up a division and contest for welterweight gold.He is the UFC’s No. 2 pound-for-pound fighter behind Ilia Topuria, who claimed the lightweight strap by knocking out Charles Oliveira in June.
