UFC 304 fallout: Belal Muhammad title defense options and Leon Edwards’ path to regain gold

The aftermath of UFC 304 raises questions about what’s next for new champ Belal Muhammad and whether Leon Edwards can ever regain gold.

[autotag]Belal Muhammad[/autotag] made sure the history books remember his name, as he did something few are able to do – win a UFC championship.

Muhammad (24-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) captured the welterweight title Saturday with a unanimous decision win over [autotag]Leon Edwards[/autotag] (21-4 MMA, 13-3 UFC) in the UFC 304 main event from Manchester, England.

What does the shakeup mean for the future of the 170-pound division? Who should be Muhammad’s first title defense? Where does Edwards go after losing the strap in his first defeat in nearly nine years?
