UFC 304 post-event facts: Tom Aspinall shortens fight time record in rare interim title defense
The UFC made its return to Manchester, England on Saturday with UFC 304 at Co-Op Live, and the two title fights on the card couldn’t have ended much differently.
In the main event, Belal Muhammad (24-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) captured the welterweight title from Leon Edwards (21-4 MMA, 13-3 UFC) in a drawn-out unanimous decision, while in the co-headliner Tom Aspinall (15-3 MMA, 8-1 UFC) needed just 60 seconds to knock out Curtis Blaydes (18-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC) and defend his interim heavyweight title while avenging his lone octagon defeat.
