These strikers who can throw these big kicks are probably stretching every day I do that too Taking 10 minutes time to strech every day is already helping so much for a guy who wants to be a good kicker
He makes it look so effortless. I’m a beginner in Muay Thai and throwing high kicks are so difficult for me even though I have a similar build to Leon.
I swear you don't realise how lethal and elite these guys are until you see them do this stuff outside the cage. Leon kills any normal man with that before he knows whats happened 😂
@@waynelpop1 your acting like head strikes are the only significant strikes in a fight, Leon landed 123/164, whereas usman landed 113/232. Leon worked a game plan and it was the right plan if anything your a casual saying that head strikes seem to make or break the stats in a fight 😂 he may have landed head shots but it’s what those shots do that count no matter where they land, head, body or legs doesn’t matter.
@@waynelpop1 120 of Leon’s strikes were significant strikes compared to usman who only had 87 significant strikes and usman only got 4 takedowns out of 15 so yeh I’d say Leon wiped the floor with him respect to usman but he just wasn’t with it that night, the second fight usman was dominating but Leon set that kick up beautifully I get your an usman fan mate but facts are facts even with a point deduction Leon had a clear lead
Nevermind the technical aspect of corralling your opponent but the bringing your left hand forward for a faint then to throw a left headkick with enough power to knock usman out is insane. Like how fast and fluid he did it. Todays fighters are just crazy good
Nice set up, glad it worked, dethroning the juice man can't be easy, having to get through all the "wrestle f**king" that went on that night was a real Nigerian Nightmare fr.
Kamaru Usman seems content but I really feel like he’s not and is now going to really be training kickboxing heavy af. Or he’s really gonna utilize his wrestling. I feel bad for both sides because Usman is either gonna lose his head again or kill rocky smh there’s no in between at this point.
Hope leon gets it done like from the uk so standard, but its hard to hate usman with that run of fights and how humble he was. Bit of a gimp now so hope its leons time, if he gets through usman its looking like he'll defend it a good few times, wipe that lil smirk of poundland mcgregors face
@@JC-ox8yl connor is really just a pay day win or lose lmao but idk man I really don’t think Kamaru Usman is done yet and I don’t see him moving up because Izzy and I surely don’t see him moving down because I just genuinely don’t think he’ll make the weight and even if he does he’d likely look horrible but I’m happy with either champ especially since Usman became an exciting fighter right around the time he became champ and leon edwards has been an exciting fighter since after his first fight with Usman but aye only time will tell fr
@@ryry6319 i meant masvidal bro hahah poundland mcgregor, but nah ur right if i was to bet on leon usman itd be usman all day. But cmon man why would u even say that kamaru prob walks round nearly 200 no way is he making lightweight🤣🤣be good to see dustin move up eventually i reckon he could be champ up there bold statement
@@JC-ox8yl oooo lmao that makes sense! And exactly😭 that’s why I said he’d nearly be dead fighting at 155 lmao plus it’s not a dc cut it’d be like if romero tried to go to 170. Or actually a dillishaw to 125. Got nothing but muscle to cut lmao and come on now be real! DP is the definition of a gatekeeper😭 I can’t see him going to 185 or higher nor do i see him making featherweight again and it’s pretty clear he’s a certified gate keeper in 155 and if we’re being honest 170 is full of kryptonite for guys like DP and Justin Gaethje so he might not even get to gatekeeper status there lmao even the strike heavy leon edwards is honestly a great grappler and would be top 5 grapplers in any division that’s not welterweight lmao so yeah there’s that. DP has some criminally underrated ground game but let’s be honest… 5’9 strike heavy DP vs 6’0 yoel romero built Usman doesn’t even sound like it has a chance of making it to 4 lmao but yeah!
Leon bests him again, no way Usman is gonna be the same fighter after a brutal KO like that. Leon’s ground is no joke either, he’s actually a better grappler than Usman
Usman is such a good sport about it too. He admits it was a great head kick. It’s a once and a lifetime shot that Leon took and it payed off. Don’t be afraid to take a shot at something guys, you’re never out of the fight!
This is what happens when you become the champion.... Everyone wants to invite you to their shows everyone wants to sign a deal with a lot of associates and more... Everyone who have become the champion have gone through this face in their journey until they got their ass beaten.... Enjoy it while it last because on the day of your fall these people will pick of stone to throw at you.... May your reign be long.
That little pivot on the foot is the only telegraph we see - at least us laymen, Im sure the pros are experts at spotting the tells. Until theyre not and they get their head kicked off
That kick was like a jab.
I’m glad Leon is getting recognized finally only real mma fans knew he’s a dog 🐶
Yeah but still knocked out usman
@YOSUKE SAN pretty sure he meant the speed not the power
Stronger than a fauci jab tho
@@Rowsy91L comment
That kick was fast as hell
can't wait for the rematch
😂 I was thinking the same thing
He just won again
Ye
Bc of the cut lol?
mah man agile as hell
Nigga threw that shit like a punch barely lost any balance too😂
@iheartcannabis bro finally someone agrees with me. It's something about the way he so cleanly brought it back too
These strikers who can throw these big kicks are probably stretching every day
I do that too
Taking 10 minutes time to strech every day is already helping so much for a guy who wants to be a good kicker
Ini in kecks aswel🤣🤣
Amen
Lol he’s slowly demonstrating it and it still looks like the kick comes out of nowhere
Imagine being his opponent having to worry about that the WHOLE fight
Bruh no warm up my hip would rip 🤣
Control your hips 😂
Haha yes
My hips don't lie, and they sayin they'd die 🤣🤣🤣
I was bouta to say like how tf 😂😂😂😂
Train your legs more
"THE KICK WRAPPED AROUND HIS HEAD." 😂😂😂😂😂
He makes it look so effortless. I’m a beginner in Muay Thai and throwing high kicks are so difficult for me even though I have a similar build to Leon.
Fax bro, i gotta stretch to even get that high
im gonna start muay thai real soon man what should i expect
@@Raifyiix
Expect to get beat up, learn to not fear the strikes. Expect pain, but it's not bad pain, it's of the good kind. Hands up chin down.
@@azretah1706 thanks bro, i naturally dont fear strikes a lot because as a kid with friends we'd train reflexes, ill give you updates when i start
@@Raifyiixexpect pain
Holy shite!! The angle and speed! Even though he doing it slow it was so quick
I had to watch this twice cuz that kick was so fast
dangerous striker, Usman should had implemented better defense and did a duck under
@@naeemtull2026 it’s not ufc 4 mate
Leon is so humble, what a kick that was !
you become a walking wepon after mastering mma.
Nobody’s ever mastered MMA
A knife is all that i need
@@jackcooper3307 Jones, GSP, Leon, DC, Aldo, Usman, Khabib and Mighty Mouse are all masters of MMA.
@@H.K.5 why’ve they all lost on multiple occasions apart from Jones then? Jones is the closest to a master but even he isn’t perfect
@@jackcooper3307 What defines a master? If these guys aren’t masters of what they do then that word is meaningless.
And that's why leon edwards is the sexiest man in the universe
I swear you don't realise how lethal and elite these guys are until you see them do this stuff outside the cage. Leon kills any normal man with that before he knows whats happened 😂
I never realised how difficult it was to throw a head kick from the same side as the punch you just threw. His balance is impeccable.
Absolutely beautiful set up !!!
Absolutely flawless
Seeing it from that angle, wow. That was so fast. Edwards is deadly.
did that shit in cargos 😭😭😭
Oozman trying to say he made a mistake… nahh he just set you up bro
He was bullying him, son! Great moments. Glad Leon was able to defend. Big bucks ahead.
Leon seems like such a humble n nice dude even tho his life seemed pretty tough
Dude chatting about and out of nowhere perfect form kick in full balance and highly controlled to nearly above his head height
This is the nightmare usman have when he sleeps
Nigerian nightmare
Underated comment hahaha. Imagine dreaming you're part of the audience while cheery hosts and the perpetrator is reliving your biggest public trauma 😅
He takes the form of a training dummy and gets kicked by leon repeatedly
@@truecocunut421LMFAO this entire hypothetical scenario is killing me
So happy Leon is getting recognition and props! Love that fr
That kick was so smooth for leon beautifully executed
Hahah London loves Leon!
Leon Edwards is the GOAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn, thats one hell of a kick. Power AND shitload of speed. Your down before you blink
The leg flips up so quickly haha
That kick came up so clean
Man is living off this kick haha
I love it
Man defended the belt and the won the 3rd fight easily
@@RyzzeRose easily lol your a casual kamaru landed 20 more head strikes Leon was just kicking his knees out and running 😂

@@waynelpop1lol hypocrisy at its finest lad Leon schooled Usman in the last fight😂
My ACL and all my hip muscles would all tear if I extended my leg further than 90 degrees😂
And still! Much love from Spain, viva Rocky!
And that’s why Leon edwards has the most sexiest and aesthetic physique in the galaxy past future and present
Imagine being in front of Leon in a fight. That kick could come at any second and then you're getting a good nap in
That lock was too perfect
Leon's the man, love this humble fellow brummie, proud of you pal
Nevermind the technical aspect of corralling your opponent but the bringing your left hand forward for a faint then to throw a left headkick with enough power to knock usman out is insane. Like how fast and fluid he did it. Todays fighters are just crazy good
The way his head stays perfectly still in between the jab and the kick is unreal
And that’s why leon edward …..
Is the sexiest man in the solar system
God damn the way he just flicks that kick that high so quick is crazy
Now that’s a swift kick , same speed as a punch . Scary
Even kicking slow he has decent speed
His coach did not scream out “RIGHT HEADKICK” 4 times before he actually pulled it off 😂
Simple but master of the simple stuff
There’s no telegraph on that kick, even when he’s doing it slow it comes out of nowhere
The only highlight in this man's life! Nothing else to talk about
He’s a great champion,, hope he keeps his belt for a long time!
And that is why Leon Edwards has the most aesthetic physique.
He makes it look so easy like a game character thats crazy
Nice set up, glad it worked, dethroning the juice man can't be easy, having to get through all the "wrestle f**king" that went on that night was a real Nigerian Nightmare fr.
Leon your victory and future victories do both your parents proud 👏
Friendly Reminder: he’s not the only person to do that in MMA
people be like who tf is Cro Cop
Throws that high left kick with hardly any telegraph
what a clean head kick - on command. masterful.
Doesn’t matter who you are - you lean into that kick you’re sleeping 🛌
That kick was impressively fluid usually in fights they're slow and mach like
Maybe they re tired while fighting
That first kick was quick
Oh man 😂 that was class
That kick was smooth didn't see it coming.
Casuals celebrating like they never watched a fight
Didn’t realise how good Leon kicks till now
That kick was hard to read. F****n fast!
Literally top knockout in MMA history🤘🤘🤘
That kick knocked the sound off the video.

I like the fact that his kick glued in to the dummies head you can tell his kicks are very dangerous
Someone else threw that kick. Did not see that coming and he literally was telling us what he was going to do.
I’m so glad Leon kicked his head into oblivion. Serves him right trying to clown on Leon. Leon is a good dude
Some Jean Claude Van Damme shit right here
Good that Leon is on a show like this
Leon's foreal the people's champ. Dude is so humble and cool with just about everyone. Usman tried to act way to cool lol
That kick was so clean 😅
And people say he got lucky. Give me a break. Leon set up that head kick perfectly.
That kick was so sneaky
That dummy took the kick which is more tougher than Usman 💀
Yeah it’s an inanimate object
Knows his distance so well
Usman somewhat having a Vietnam flashbacks from this video
How the fuck is paddy more spoken about than Leon Edwards. He’s legit world class fighter and athlete.
Damn that kick is faster than his jabs, Fookin crazy 😮
His whole body barely turns as he whips his leg around lol holy shit. Dudes flexible af
I love Leon's laugh!
And thats how you break your finger my man
Light speed with that left Kick
I thought that was Holy Holm on the back until it started talking
Imagine fighting him at a bar not knowing who he is
Punch kick some of the most effective kicks
It's the high water crew lol
Great edit
And now he’s won the second fight
Wonderboy called it
Usman is such a good sport about it too. He admits it was a great head kick. It’s a once and a lifetime shot that Leon took and it payed off. Don’t be afraid to take a shot at something guys, you’re never out of the fight!
Bruh the kick came up like his leg weighed nothing. 0% telegraph
