Fabian Edwards shocks PFL as Leon Edwards celebrates knockout

Fabian Edwards delivered a statement win at PFL, but the real story unfolded both inside and outside the cage. Facing former light heavyweight champion Impa Kasanganay in Orlando, Florida, Edwards—known as "The Assassin"—showed why he's one of the most dangerous middleweights in the game. After a back-and-forth first round, Edwards opened a deep cut on Kasanganay with a brutal elbow, forcing a doctor's check before the second round. Once cleared, Edwards unleashed a barrage that dropped Kasanganay, earning a TKO stoppage at:1 of round two.

The victory catapulted Fabian into the semifinals of the PFL’s $50,00 middleweight tournament, marking a major comeback after his title loss in Bellator. But the drama didn’t stop there—his brother, former UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards, was cageside and immediately scaled the fence to celebrate the knockout win. For Leon, who is coming off two tough UFC losses, his brother’s triumph was a much-needed boost.

Impa Kasanganay, the PFL champion, now faces a two-fight skid, while Fabian Edwards moves to 14-4 and sets his sights on PFL gold. The Edwards brothers continue to make headlines—one chasing redemption, the other chasing a new crown.
