UFC Welterweight Champion Belal Muhammad was close by to rub Saturday's losing result for Leon Edwards in.
Edwards returned to action in this weekend's UFC London main event, making his first appearance since having his title reign brought to an emphatic end by Muhammad in Manchester last July.
"Rocky" was hoping to bounce back on home soil inside The O2 in England's capital, believing a victory would see him granted a shot at regaining the gold. But that script was flipped by Philadelphia's Sean Brady.
Like Muhammad, the American contender took advantage of the holes in Edwards' grappling game, controlling him and landing heavy damage across the first three rounds. And in the fourth, Brady found the finish by way of guillotine choke submission.
Among those taking joy in the result was Muhammad, who fired shots at his former two-time opponent.
One specific post saw him reference Leon Edwards' claim that the overnight fight time last summer contributed to his title defeat, considering Saturday's event took place in UK primetime.
"Leon's still on 5 am time zone," Muhammad wrote on X.
That marked one of many posts from the champ, who well and truly took the opportunity to poke fun at his longtime rival's second straight setback.
