Usman gets Edwards down again early in round three before a time out is called for a fence grab by Edwards as he looked to get himself back on his feet. Referee Herb Dean takes a point, which could prove crucial if this goes to decision.
Hard low kick by Edwards. Usman responds in kind. Again Edwards tags the former champion with a low kick.
Usman blocks a front kick to the body; Edwards then does the same.
Now we have another pause, as Usman complains that he was kicked in the groin and it seems to have landed there. Edwards is warned again.
More leg kicks by Edwards. Usman tries to stick him with the jab, but the champion is out of range.
