#UFC #UFC278 - Спорт
Leon’s KO is up there with Silva v Sonnen for biggest comeback in a title fight. Insane shit. No one was expecting that!
Sonnen won that match he was beating the fuck out of him the whole match.
@@GothboiKenzy Exactly, that’s what a comeback is... and Silva triangled Chael for the comeback win in the dying seconds of the 5th. Legendary shit.
Sonnen has never lost !
@@mitchk5748 stop it with the fake news lol Sonnen beat him rounds 5-0
@@mitchk5748 bruh that’s wack sonnen never lost. He never lost a match you just on his dik like 🙄🙄
Usman got fed a huge dose of humble pie. He got sent to the shadow realm, as Rogan said on Live TV, he got stiffened, and his toes curled as his eyeballs froze. What a statement for Leon, immortalised in UFC history forever.
Brilliant moment, will feature in UFC highlights for years to come 🔥
So, so satisfying.
Never be too happy for another mans loss. Kamaru will be back and dominate again
Headshot! Dead!
@@greymuzik legit, bit odd how happy lesser men get when their betters fall
Omg. Best 5th round comback ever. Holy sh*t.
I agree man! Reminds me.of the Chael Sonnen / Silva first fight when Chael tapped with like 2 minutes left lol. This was better though.. not only was it a ko, it won Leon the belt opposed to defending it. Though an argument can be made for both sides lol
@@jeffdeming8811 dont think you really see many comebacks in fighting so hard being beaten to exhaustion then find a way to win
@@jeffdeming8811 what about prochazka bro? 😪
@@josefharasek7487 as insane as the Jiri v Glover fight was, and it truly was an epic title fight. One of the best of all time for sure, but I wouldn’t necessarily consider it a “comeback” given that it was so back and forth.
I believe Leon deserves the next title shot 😏.
Usman : where am I?
Masvidal : you've been baptized
Leon Edwards and Khamzat Chimaev: Hold My Beer.
@@muhammadwahyuhidayat21498 Cumshot ! For the W
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The costa rockhold fight was the greatest fight between two exhausted dudes ever made 🤷🏿♂️
Shogun vs Hendo.
Kimbo vs 5000
This is a comment I can agree with but I am not fan of watching exhausted fighters.
@@lukemurray4950 Utah and swinging like your life depends on it isn’t the perfect scenario for your preferences xD
First Masvidal brutal KOed Askren, then Usman brutal KOed Mashvidal and now Leon brutal KOed Usman! What goes around comes around!
@Firen khamzat has the best chance or olives if he moves up
Masvidal derrrr brains🧠
The cycle starts again
@Firen if charles can knockdown justin in one round he poses a threat to edwards
@Firen Colby Covington when he comes back, and maybe even Khamzat Chimaev
Askren brutally KO’d _____!
The way Leon set up that head kick was just perfection 💯
it really wasn’t the jab wasn’t fully thrown with the straight with Leon fingers open. Niether punches were meant to land Usman made a mistake except a true Nightmare Usman.
@@jtdime you don’t know fighting lmao. he feinted with the jab and set up the headkick he wasn’t going for a punch he tricked his eyes to perry and opened the right side of his face
Absolutely!! 👌🏽
@@Estroogen yup for 5 rounds he will switch to southpaw and throw that left, on the 5th he threw the left meant to hide the kick!
@@jtdime WWE fan found
Head Shot!! Dead!! Had me 🤣🤣 And then he ends the pound for pound list!! 🤣🤣
And ends the GOAT and canelo fight haha
My boy Leon change the timeline by 1 kick lmao
Usman is gon win the next one in dominant fashion 😂😂loving another man’s lose is pitiful and shows how little of a person you are 👎🏾
I would laugh my ass off if Monday morning when the list gets updated it just says "This list does not exist anymore" 😂
@pablo how dare you disrespect the true GOAT GSP. People have really short memories my gawd
Woodley, usman they all look unbeatable. But after this devasting ko, usman won't be the same fighter, that kick will always tingle him to change in his style.
He'll go back to being very wrestling heavy probably.
He’ll win the rematch unless his leg snaps or something
The thing is that his corner and his team should’ve recognised a weakness in head kicks. Cause even I, as a fan, could tell Kamaru doesn’t really defend well against head kicks but people don’t throw it often. Leon did and he dropped Usman like a sack of bricks.
@@Mrsonicslash5 I really hope he doesn’t win man . It’s not that I’m hating but he dresses with no shirt on always like Malibu’s most wanted . Just different color scheme … he even had the signature blue in the final face offs …
@@bigrandomun9267 rocky edwards baby !!!
Today is the reason I understood why Izzy doesn't care what people think of his style and fights because you can't please everyone.
Why didn’t you learn that from Izzy, himself?
@@Aus198 🤔
Izzy? Who's that?
Yeah, but there's also a consequences too. His game so boring and not good for business
Right, usman coulda coasted for the last minute and hed still be the champ.
That might be the most precise and technical setup for a head kick KO I have ever seen. Perfectly placed and flicked jab, Usman gets caught leaning and BAM!
That right feint set it all up
Izzy done the exact same set up against Costa. But Edwards had power behind it.
@@TheFlamingChips exactly 🤌true art as a martial arts fan when u catch the technique u love
Usman had it wrapped up & never should of headbutt Leon’s shin?
It was all built up too. He trained Usman to be used to low kicks coming in following that jab. Then just switched it up and sent Marty to Mojahed's Ghost Realm.
I was hoping Rockhold would keep fighting his kicks are crazy he landed a ton of powerful kicks and the variety is rarely seen. He landed some big shots too. Salt Lake City is worst place he could have fought coming back. He just got tired and he blew a couple takedowns that would have given him a win I bet
I hope he fights a few more ... 👍✊
100% he looked his best for a while, he just lucked out with a reborn Costa.
Shame to see him leave😕
@@tony7831 I was rooting for Rockhold so much, but honestly, I don't think I have ever seen a man more tired than him after the first round
@@nikushachanturia all the fighters seemed to tire fast on that card, must’ve been the heat or humidity.
The shots he did land were superb, slick and trained, I’d love to see him back in there with Strickland or Vettori I think he has much more success in those fights.
@@tony7831 Yeah, they need to put Luke in the "vets against vets" type fights. Then, let him get back accustomed to fighting.
I bet Birmingham EXPLODED with that head kick LMAO.
Big up Brum town let’s gooooo
Brother we winning recently lol
We did nigggggggaa
We have a champion 🥳🥳🥳🥳 our boy did it.
Oh, just to be a fly on the wall of a Birmingham Pub when Leon Edwards landed that KO.
GSP still king of WW. I normally like Dana but you know Usman losing upsets him since Dana doesn't like GSP.
GSP lost too
@@razrsliq7623 Yeah he did but it does take some wind out of Usman's sails for sure having this loss. GSP lost and each time came back better and then went on a historic run of title defenses in the WW division that still isn't matched. That being said, I still think Usman is incredible and probably the second best WW ever and would still pick him to beat Edwards in a rematch.
@@razrsliq7623 yeah this is Usman first ufc loss
@@razrsliq7623 gsp lost early in his career tho not in his prime. Gsp still the goat of welterweight.
@@AngleFan1 tyron woodley is still the 2nd best ww his defense titles were better competition than usman. Usman defended his titles 2 times vs masvidal who’s garbage and cowboy twice.
I honestly was happy to see Usman get humbled. He is no doubt one of the best ever, but there is ALWAYS a day where you lose to someone.
I can agree, but also was sad to see him lose only because it seems like he only recently started getting the respect he constantly fought for. He was seen as a boring "non-champ" champion for so long, and then started finishing fights. It will be interesting to see how the rematch goes and how he fights afterwards should he win.
Not unless your chael sonnen
I wonder if he'll start doing his own groceries again?
"Humble"
How is usman not humble? Delusional fans
Kamaru "Cocky" Usman got Knocked out COLD by Leon "Rocky" Edwards.
Nice humble pie fed straight into Snoozeman's mouth. The way he was taunting Leon before the fight began and when rounds would end. Dude got humbled.
Dude literally said he was nervous and scared
@@PronatorTendon The OP stated how Usman acted, not how he felt. Not hard to understand.
Usman got fed a huge dose of humble pie. He got sent to the shadow realm, as Rogan said on Live TV, he got stiffened, and his toes curled as his eyeballs froze. Delightful scene.
@@jonoharper4729 It was an outcome I didn't expect but goddamn what a good fight
@@jonoharper4729 WTF is a OP. This isn’t Reddit nerd
Absolutely insane card, glad I watched it live
Fr. It blew last expectations

Fast pace
Respct
That question about Jon Jones coming back to fight in "Vegas" lmaao. I instantly started laughing too. Everyone did
I don't get why these fools always asks Dana things that he won't answer. We all know he's response would always be "we'll see what happens".
Because then they can write clickbait articles
"Dana White talks about Amanda Nunes next opponent"
Same shitty questions every fucking time
He answered the Ferguson question
He did answer about Tony and 1 outta 10 times he will give ya something
Usmans reality check
Dana wtf dude make Stipe Vs. Jon already for 282.
Yes even I want Jones vs Stipe at 282
Right heavyweight been kinda wack lately
Its really nice to see a person like Leon get this victory.
This poor guy has been through so much JUST as a UFC fighter. I mean he should have had a title shot 2 years ago.
Congrats to Leon and good luck with that first defense!!!
Usman has been a great champ but this certainly was a fairy tail ending just like “Rocky” for the underdog Edwards. It’s great for the sport and the company.
Usman’s game plan was on point until that head kick DAMN!!! He got turned over in the first round and most likely lost that round but he wrestled and grappled the heck out of him for the next 4 rounds. Even working the body and some nice boxing but always being cautious of Leon’s striking although I couldn’t understand why Leon was so hesitant to let his hands go? Even his coaches were screaming at him. I thought it was the altitude getting to him. Idk he just looked like he was not there. And then Leon set up that left hand to hide the left head kick from hell!!! I’m glad he was classy and didn’t go for the “HENDO after shot special” lol. That being said, this was one of the greatest comebacks I’ve seen. I’m just glad I got to see this one live on TV.
Leon basically said he was at his worst going into the fight, but I think a big part for the low volume was nothing to do with Usman's striking and more to do with the threat of more take-downs. Glad he solved it in time
Usman was fighting a boring fight until he was sent into another dimension.
I thik if leon would've let his hands go usman woulda shoot for a takedown.
That Knockout reminded me of UFC 229 when Lewis was getting destroyed by Volkov, and last 17 seconds in the last round volkov gets caught and KO.
That was even more insane then the Leon one. But the stakes weren’t as high
Yair vs zombie type shit
That uncle Dana smiling thumbnail is gold 🤣🤣🤣
Dominick Cruz would probably say Usman was trying to gas out Edwards leg with his head
Cruz and Cormier the worst commentators.
Hahah I love indian humor
@@patricklutherwinchester4260 Don't group DC up with Cruz, Cruz is in a class all by himself when it comes to saying dumb shit
Cruz is garbage at commentating and fighting
@@patricklutherwinchester4260 Cormier is biased
@7:52 The Jon Jones question is so funny - including the laughter in background🤣
Best thing to happen for the UFC was Leon winning! Big money gonna be made on the trilogy! If Usman would of won after dominating Leon, the division would of been boring until Khamzat was ready to fight Usman..
That's why i love UFC, such an exciting cards back to back 🔥🔥🔥
Leon Edwards made the UK and EVERYONE else around the would Proud! Welldone champ!
Usmans new nickname should be Nigerian sleep.
Hell yeah! Been shouting his name in the Netherlands for years! What a rollercoaster of emotion lol. Hurt my soul seeing Leon in R3,4 but he got it done. Letsgo Rocky!
damn @ufc @espn whyd you cut out the beginning of the interview? who got the fotn/performance bonuses?
Good to see Dana's on the right page with Merab
Dood what the heck was that phone call at the end about, Dana just walked off. Even more strange that it's been cut from the video.
It was Usman---he was demanding a rematch and guaranteed Dana that he'd "kill" Edwards next time....
It really was Usman lol
Lmfao that reporter was out of pocket with that Jon Jones question
Looks like GSP won this one.
Chill
He’s not wrong dude lol . Usman is an all time great. But the debate is settled . Gsp greatest welterweight and ufc goat
@@Wickedtingzz I don't agree with that. Usman fights were soo much harder. The level of competition wasn't the same between GSP and Usman. Plus gsp lost to matt serra
@@rando8263 GSP had a tougher schedule than silva what are you talking about
@@Travvv94 bro look at the guys usman beat then look at gsps. it aint even close lol
I'm interested to see if Usman can do what GSP did after his loss to a wrestler like Hughes. Obviously this is opposite because he's already a wrestler who was hit with a kick but maybe he goes to the best strikers and focuses fully on striking since he doesn't need any work on wrestling skills let's see. I doubt that happens again honestly Usman is a beast and in my opinion the much better fighter no disrespect towards Edwards at all did his job and is champion now.
Tony vs leech?!! 😬 that’s a scary fight for Ferguson
Almost to soon for him. But champ shit only, only if he gets kod soon into the fight he needs to start considering hanging them up
shoud have made Ferguson vs Hooker, but that would also be tough for Tony at this point
@@vedun9439 hooker would end up loosing
At this point, every fight is a scary fight for Tony.
He should've retired years ago.
That dude is done.
A punching bag on legs.
Why couldn't it be Tony Ferguson vs Robbie Lawler?
That arena is mint!
why cut the video short? what happened with that phone called that Dana received that he had to up and go without saying anything
Dana seems so happy lol
Have a blessed day everyone!
I like how they didn’t add that sketchy af phone call and sudden takeoff
I wonder who it was
@@CrackheadArsonist his manager telling him he just lost a million 🤣
Bro that was Usman on the phone. He said he would "kill" him next time. You can check the full post fight press conference on the ufc channel.
@@invasioncrewivc big talk from the Shadow Realm 🥴
@@invasioncrewivc yeah bro you see I did this very nuanced conversational piece, I believe some people refer to it as "a fucking joke"
Dana, COLBY VS LEON NEXT LETS GO!
BRO SAID COLBY LMAOOO
@@highlybaked8417 It would be more entertaining than most other match ups. I'm here for entertainment
Leon "Look at me now" Edwards
I cannot get over the Mint arena advertisement
Rockhold is right about the ufc. I love Dana and the ufc but let’s get real.
A lot of people don't realize that the UFC only pays like 25% of revenue to fighters. NBA is like 50%. NFL is like 48%. They have the money to pay them more.
@@willdameyra they do yes . I completely agree fighters are getting screwed. To play devils advocate . The ufc is only a recently established business with its first multi billion dollar tv teals . Nba nhl nfl have been around for a century in some cases .. literally 100 years . I hope they do it sooner then later , but I can see them playing the card for at least another 10 years
That kick was to wake usman up, that was god saying your not going to 205 and your not beating Canelo 😂😂😂😂
"Hello Dana, how are you?"
"Let's see what happens"
Uncle Dana the best promoter
Honestly I now see that usman has holes in his game
Head kicks and his ground game isn't great, he just hasn't been taken down before this fight. But if he does get taken down, his ground game isn't as good as I thought.
Great insight from Dana “I don’t know” White.
Luke went out like a gangster!!! I hated luke his whole career then I found out he was training with Jason at rvca I decided "ok fuck it, I love Jason and the rvca team, I hate Paulo Costa so I'm rooting for Luke" boy am I glad I did!!!! That was an epic showing of determination and grit! Almost 40 years old, bloody, beaten and exhausted but he kept on swinging!!!!
What a great way to end a career, what a great fight to get the respect of the fans back
He probably didn’t realize just after the fight because he "failed“ but maybe by now or soon he will realize that this was a perfect end of his career
Luke Rockhold is a fucking god for rubbing his blood in Paulo’s face 🤣
I swear that was the funniest shit I have seen in a while...me and a few of my mates were dying of laughter
🤣hilarious indeed 🤣
Proverbs 11:2 “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.” Proverbs 16:5 “The LORD detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: They will not go unpunished.” Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.”
Leon’s Head Kick 👌 👌 👌
Where is the first part of this? With attendance stats etc as usual ?
REAL LIFE ROCKY MOMENT 💯
Man I wanted usman to lose but I feel so shitty for him. That was a vicious knockout
Bring the ufc to Wembley ! Would be absolute scenes
Colby vs Leon Scott let's get it
This fight really is gonna change Usman he is gonna fine tune his style so I won't be surprised if he is more wrestling heavy and ground and pound style.
Agreed...he's gonna come back even more dangerous. Usman wins the rematch, but Congrats to Leon for a brilliant setup...!!!!
Then again probably Leoon wouldn't slow down as much at his regular altitude. Just a thought
So exactly what happened to GSP? God I hope not I can’t listen to casuals complain about crotch sniffing for 5 more years.
Usmans chin is gone now, mark my words. This will change him for sure but it will be for the worse
@@SergantLighting i hope i never hear anyone saying fanboy or casuals anymore, i cant take it for 5 more years.
Like there are amateur fans and pro fans wtf.
Dana gets loads of shit but people have to admit he has turned the UFC into something special its a juggernaut now.
Usman got folded the exact same way Izzy did against Alex except with a head kick. What an upset
Did he talk about Luke going all Tyler Durden on Costas face?
Leon's kick reminded me of chito obliterating cruz
Did he say Li vs Tony?? Interesting 🌚
Terrible matchup for tony
Not good for tony
Seeing Usman get knocked unconscious is the best thing i have ever seen! Usman STINKS👊😂
He's rich and you're not so you stink.
Leon got almost knocked out against Nate in 5th round but today he knocked out the Champs in 5th.
What a come back mate.
Now we know why Leon trained with Mojtaba Aslani as a training opponent on wrestling defense in England. 💪👍 thanks Mojtaba.
Shoutout to Luke Rockhold, man. What a fight to retire on! Nothing to be ashamed about and gained a lot of respect from me, that’s for sure.
Who called on the phone?
Dana doesn't look so happy that Kamaru lost
Two Kicks Knock out in 2 weeks.
Awsome
Dana is in a good mood 😂
Yea that cocaine is doing its job
Reporter: *insert stupid ass question*
Dana: idk
Post-fight press conferences in a nutshell
I wonder if Leon learned from fighting nate that in the 5th round your opponent who thinks he's winning guard is down and that's the tome to capitalize and throw your best shot
9:48 Hey England ain't that bad Dana 😂
“Next year.”
“…so 2023”?
Anyone know what that phone call at the end was?
"I don't know...we'll see".
Dana "I have no idea" White
It’s one of those moments for Nigerian fight fans. Anthony Joshua and Kamaru Usman lost their fights. They will be back 🤞🏿
Both didn't look bad tbh. Joshua performed a lot better than last time and his fight was very close. Usman was also 1 minute away from winning and he fought also a good fight versus one very well rounded Leon Edwards... So if they are mental strong they have all the tools to come back and claim the top once again
Anthony Joshua will never be champ again
I had that holy shit moment at the bar
It's sunny in UK today
We’ll that make an potential Edwards/ Masvidal real interesting. Pending Usman 2.
Glad Usman was humbled today. Nothing worse than being too arrogant and thinking that no one can beat you
yep
Silva’s win streak remains at the top.
It's coming home 🇬🇧
Khamzat vs Usman next
3 piece and a combo done boomeranged
still feeling bad after Usman's loss.
🤣🤣
That was so strange for Dana's PR lady to hand him a call in the middle of his post - conference. Then he just walked off. I know it was a fighter, just wonder what that was all about.
Dana looked like he was loaded and definitely acting like it.
I think it was Usman
They edited that part out
Cocaine
Rockhold?
Rockhold should not retire. He fought a beast after a 4 year layoff.
Topped Holly Holm's headkick against Ronda Rousey as the most meaningful headkick in the history of the UFC. Was getting his ass whooped, too, which made it that much more special. Congrats to Edwards. Pretty sure Usman will come back and win that belt back, though lol.
What’s up with that phone call at the end??
Colby vs Edwards in England
Honestly no one wants to see a rematch soon let the man soak in the win….. I wouldn’t pay for a rematch ID say Oct 2023
everybody wants to see an immediate rematch
speak for yourself "no one"
Why would you not want to see a rematch? Won’t be until early next year anyway. Enough time to soak it in. Usman definitly deserves an immediate rematch and I’ve been shouting edwards name for years now
Dana White is like Kingpin from spiderman
He’s getting paid. Big win by Leon
Yeah khazmat is definitely gonna be a double maybe triple champ
