Lyon Edwards promised to expel Sean Brady while the husband shared an ice stare before he was weighing at UFC London on Saturday.
Edwards weighed in 171 lb (12 pounds) with a lighter American American, with fighters remain silent while confronting him.
Edwards, 33, is looking to bounce after he lost his weight in weight to P1 in July.
Edwards said: “London, what's it? I am excited to return. Tomorrow's night I really think I have put it away, it can be very predicted, so let's go.”
The interactions between Edwards and Padi were low during the fighting week, as the British put a lot of his focus on the restoration of the belt.
This topic continued as the husband remained silent when he was face to face, as Edwards was longer behaving in his opponent.
Brady, 32, was a late alternative to Australian Jacques Della Madlena, who instead faces Mohamed to the belt in UFC 315 on May 10.
Edwards says he felt his victory over 12 in the fighting, heading to the match with Mohamed, and “City of UK lovers” with a strong performance in O2 Arena.
