By Jake Soliz - November 13, 2019

Friday night at Bellator 233 on the preliminary card at WinStar World Casino in Thackerville, Oklahoma, Christian Edwards, who fights out of Jackson Wink MMA Academy had a chance to display why he could be the next big MMA star.
He knocked out his opponent Cesar Bennett in just 16 seconds of the first round with a high kick. Bennett who was making his pro debut tried to step back and block a body kick but Edwards went high and the lengthy fighter landed right on the chin.
Christians first fight only lasted 54 seconds when he TKO’d Justin Vargas with a brutal left hook followed by a ground and pound of elbows. Edwards has now improved to 2-0 in MMA competition.
Christian grew up in Yukon Oklahoma. He started training with Jackson Wink MMA Academy in 2017. At just 21 years old, he has been a main training partner with Jon Jones, Don’Tale Mayes and Devin Clark, just to name a few. The up and coming fighter celebrated his birthday on November 5th, just days before his fight.
