((Reuters)) - American Sean Brady scored the biggest win of his career with a superb submission over ex-welterweight champion Leon Edwards to silence the crowd at London's O2 Arena and catapult himself into contention for a shot at compatriot Belal Muhammad's title.

Brady dominated before a guillotine choke forced Edwards to tap out at 1:39 in the fourth round. With Muhammad set to put thebelt on the line against Australian Jack Della Maddalena at UFC 315 in May, Brady is in pole position to meet the winner.
