Leon Edwards vs. Nate Diaz moved to UFC 263 May 4, 2021 The welterweight bout between Nate Diaz and no. 3 ranked Leon Edwards will no longer take place at UFC 262 on May 15. The bout has been rescheduled to appear on the UFC 263 fight card on June 12. Yahoo!Sports first broke the news on Monday evening and the change has been confirmed by multiple media outlets. The bout was pushed back due to Diaz suffering a minor injury in training that prevented him from making the May 15th date. The undisclosed injury forced the bout to be pushed back four weeks. Edwards last competed in March in a fight with Belal Muhammad that ended in a No Contest due to an accidental eye poke. Edwards hasn’t lost a fight since December 2015 when current champion Kamaru Usman defeated him by unanimous decision.
