He won his next 6 fights before facing Shinny Bayaar for the British flyweight title on 15 Dec 2010, at the Kings Hall, Belfast, Northern Ireland. Edwards won by first round technical knockout (TKO) after Bayaar suffered a cut above his left eye.[1]

On 11 June 2011, Edwards made the first defence of his British flyweight title against Chris Edwards at the Olympia, Liverpool. Edwards lost the title by split decision, with one judges’ scorecard reading 115–114, and the other two 113–115.[2]

In 19 May 2012, Edwards challenged Kevin Satchell for the Commonwealth flyweight title at the Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool. Edwards lost via tenth-round stoppage. This would be Edwards' last fight.[3]

gollark: But how do you KNOW if it understands it?
gollark: I mean, right now, our AIs don't reach anywhere near human complexity. But what if Google scales up GPT-3 a few hundred times or something on their vast computing resources, and it manages to do really advanced stuff without doing anything which looks like thinking to humans?
gollark: I don't even know. Our current "AI" systems don't really seem like, well, anything comprehensible to humans?
