Bueno Silva up next

June 1, 2025
Edwards is scheduled to compete against Mayra Bueno Silva in a bantamweight fight at UFC Vegas 109 on Aug. 9, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Edwards will look to establish a three-fight win streak, which began with a submission win over Tamires Vidal and continued with a TKO to Chelsea Chandler. Meanwhile, Edwards' upcoming opponent is fighting off a loss, meaning momentum is on La Pantera's side.
First knockout win since 2020
BantamweightUFC
April 26, 2025
Edwards defeated Chelsea Chandler via TKO (punches) at 2:31 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Edwards made her UFC debut in January 2021. Each of her first nine fights with the company had gone to a decision. Not here, however. Edwards was able to blitz Chandler with a big combination along the fence, and Chelsea crumbled in an instant. It's certainly more of a fluke result as opposed to a sign of things to come, but the end result either way was Edwards' first knockout win in almost five years. The 29-year-old has won back-to-back fights on the heels of a brief two-fight losing streak.
Scheduled for UFC Kansas City

Edwards is scheduled to compete against Chelsea Chandler at UFC Kansas City in a bantamweight fight on April 26, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Edwards and Chandler missed weight in their previous fights, but both are staying at bantamweight for another bout. Unlike Chandler's, Edwards' last fight was a win, over Tamires Vidal.
Another win after weight miss
BantamweightUFC
October 20, 2024
Edwards defeated Tamires Vidal via submission (face crank) at 4:33 of Round 3 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Edwards has now missed weight three times in her UFC career. She's also won each of those fights. It's gotten to the point that what she does in the Octagon is essentially irrelevant due to her issues on the scale. Edwards did a nice job of bullying Vidal and controlling the fight wherever it took place, but it's fair to wonder how long the company will allow this to go on. The UFC typically has a pretty low tolerance for fighters that are consistently unable to hit the allowable maximum weight.
Fight on despite missing weight
BantamweightUFC
October 19, 2024
Edwards' scheduled bantamweight matchup against Tamires Vidal will proceed as planned despite Edwards missing weight Friday morning, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Edwards will have to forfeit 25 percent of her fight purse to Vidal in order for this fight to proceed, but what's worse is the fact that Friday's final weight of 139 pounds represents the third time she's missed the bantamweight limit. The UFC could easily elect to cut bait regardless of Saturday's result. In the meantime, Edwards sits as approximately a (-265) betting favorite as of Saturday morning.
