Uros Medic Secures Quick Victory at UFC Belgrade, Targets Leon Edwards
Uros Medic delivered a stunning performance at UFC Belgrade, finishing Daniel Rodriguez in just 30 seconds during the main event on Saturday. The fight took place at the Belgrade Arena, where Medic, competing in front of a home crowd, quickly called out former champion Leon Edwards as his next opponent.
This knockout marked the fastest main event finish in UFC on ESPN history and contributed to a record-setting event for total stoppages. Medic's victory positions him as a contender in the welterweight division, where Edwards is seeking to regain momentum after losing his title.
Other notable performances included Navajo Stirling's first-round knockout of former light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz and Aleksandar Rakic's victory in his heavyweight debut against Marcin Tybura. The event saw an unprecedented finish rate, with all fights concluding before the distance in the first nine bouts. Medic weighed in at 170 pounds and anticipates facing a ranked opponent when the UFC returns to Europe in the fall.
