Good for Leon man. He cemented his legacy. Now nobody can whine about him being lucky with the head kick. Show the champ some respect.
That narrative is quickly turning into leon had home town judges lol
@@Biqavell19 The only person saying that is you. Objectively it’s clear Leon won. You need to stop crying 😂
@@Biqavell19 Its okay, Leon is going to destroy Masvidal, Colby, and Belal. His legacy is going to be cemented.
@@Mrwm117
💀💀
@@Biqavell19 Edwards won 4 rounds cope
1st fight humbled him, 2nd fight he shocked the world, and the 3rd fight he left no doubt. Absolute chills. Leon Rocky Edwards is one of the best
He arguably won the first fight as well, he was outstriking the hell out of Usman in that one, but Usman got the W because of takedown and control time (which was a big factor in those days).
@@Zizoujr11 where are you getting this from? The stats I just looked up were usman 48 to Leon's 26 significant and total strikes was usman 126 to Edwards 36. Let's not forget usman had almost 11 minutes of control in a 15 minute fight. The fact that you said he arguably won and outstruck him is insane when the stats say otherwise.
jhmn
@@Nick_0828he did outstrike him but only in the first half of round one and the rest of the fight was a wrestle fuck
I thought he wasn’t focused on this one cus of the support in England and bc he had that confidence. Usman had no intimidation to leon
It's a new era. I thought Kamaru would take it back but Leon is clearly a true CHAMP. Love this guy and his story.
You probably thought the headkick in the 2nd was lucky
@@j.a.g.8689 dude at least he’s admitting his fighter lost. Give this guy respect.. not like those other fans that try find excuses yk
@@j.a.g.8689 head kick was not lucky. it was Usman's unpredictable movements that favored the point of impact with the kick as is always the case in most fights.
@@j.a.g.8689 not "lucky" but we certainly wouldnt be here without that one split second moment after getting beat up all fight...
Leon Edward’s story is incredible. He’s making all doubters eat their words. At a point in time he had the worst luck in the Ufc. Every time he would win a fight it would surrounded with skepticism. Now, he has just cemented himself as the greatest welterweight on the planet and he’s only getting better. I hope his championship reign lasts a while.
Also, hats off to Usman for being a class act in defeat.
Saying he’s the greatest welterweight is a little too much too soon but he’s on his way upas one of them
@@dxg4615 can you name a welterweight better than him currently? That has proven themselves better? I didn’t say the best ever. After beating Kamaru twice. The first putting him to sleep and the second winning convincingly. He won while having a point deducted that’s a big deal. I can’t name any other welterweight better than him currently.
If Usman was the champion he would have won this but I'd give the match 50/50
@@dxg4615 he's the champion and he just defended his belt, that's the very definition of the best in the world. That's the whole reason we have belts in the first place. Are you missing something?
@@DarraghM1 Oh common, one defense makes him the beat jn the world overnight. For real? Dude got beaten by Nate Diaz, I mean Nate Diaz.
This man’s life is like a movie. Congrats Leon
You can say that about all the champions
@@gotcha7369aljamain? thought so
@@mike4917 movie about acting debut
Imagine him being KO by Diaz or never landing that head kick in 2nd fight with usman - he would have the popularity and income level as Jared Canonnier
Not really.
Leon is a wrestler's nightmare. A striker with a great take down defense and ability to stand back up from the ground efficiently. really impressive.
facts, usman had no answer after that, takedowns are usman bread and butter. he feeds off those takedowns to implement his striking. shavkat, colby or jorge his next opponent. i personally prefer jorge masvidal, colby does seems like a interesting match up lowkey
@@draco2xxhe beats them all but khamzat is his only true threat, i would belive in shavkot but his head movement a little worrying and leon would def take advantage of that
UFC all entertainment no sport or respect👋🏼
@@Noone-wp6vj😂😂😂
I'm interested in the Khamzat matchup the most. Khamzat is a lot faster shooting takedowns than Kamaru and moves a bit better on the feet, too. I'd be interested to see how Leon fares against Khamzat abilities. The only thing is UFC, or the fans can't fully trust Khamzat to make the weight, so I think you do Khamzat vs. Colby next and winner gets title shot.
Big Props to Bruce Buffer who stays in magic moments like this with this crowd professional and continues his legendary speech!
Amazing performance from Leon, he said his last fight performance was bad and I of course didn't believe him because fighters will always say that and say they think they won. But, he was absolutely not lying! This performance was WAY better and he came out victorious even with a point deduction!! Besides a couple groin kicks which was inevitable with his style this fight he was on fire. Kamaru Usmans run is surely over, im blown away by Leon's performance. I think he will hold the belt for a while. Also, his takedown defense skill increase was mindblowing. Way to go Leon! 👏
You didn't believe him about having his worst performance? I think it was pretty clear. In the second fight he dominated the first round then immediately fell off. The altitude hurt a lot of fighters on that card.
I'll eat my words, I called it a fluke, I called it luck but he went out and there and proved me wrong, a true champ
How the fuck was it a fluke when he literally set the kick up, you clearly don’t understand what you are watching then if you thought that ko was a fluke
respect brahh
Respect to you. There's few real men left that can change their stance.
Appreciate you admitting lol
respect admitting to thinking it was a fluke and respect for eating ur words.
Man that takedown defence was on point 💯
Striking was sharp too
Defended 11 out of 15, and against Usman. Crazy
Yeah but colby gonna make him cry
@@frosty2.010 super impressive
@@jacksonwattson colby don’t deserve it
This is why Leon Edwards has the most aesthetic physique
Colby cussing out Leon from the crowd for no reason is the most Colby thing I've ever seen
ain't for no reason he up next
Imagine how electrifying it felt for Leon when every time he stuffed a takedown or got back to his feet, the crowd lost it for him. It’s like a celestial pat on the back throughout the fight.
I was there, it was mad, the chants everything
You can tell he definitely got a confidence boost from the second fight. That was the missing piece of his game IMO, he's got talent and all the skills but the mentality wasn't quite there. Now I think its there.
I was in the crowd - had goosebumps every defense
Lost my voice screaming everytime he landed lol
@@willsk1738you are a bussy
So happy for Leon. Much respect to "Rocky".
" Head-Shot Dead"....that chanting! Spectacular indeed.
That chanting was disrespectful.
@@reyansk709 we are in the fight game not in the kindergarden Punk
@@laniasgamingworld3573 your kids disrespects others in kindergarten? What they're learning instead of education?
Leon is now on one of the best winning streak in ufc history and defeated the former n°1 fighter p4p. To think Nate Diaz almost stopped that and koed him, mma is crazy.
its crazy cause that moment in the 2nd fight turned leon's career around and gave him the momentum to pull off this win as well
He deserves it he worked so hard and finally the recognition he again deserves and worked so hard for, happy for him
Those takedown defense by Rocky was extraordinary 👌 💯 🏆
He was incredibly patient. Not only did he knock out Kamara Usman but he did something even more impressive, he out scored him as well. Which seemed like an impossible feat knowing how well rounded Usman is.
Usman wasnt that good. Welterweight doesnt have anyone without huge weakness. Leon with takedown defense is closest
that is a good assesment , until that fifth round usman was still favorite to win, that is how good he is. But the mental part is true , a headkick change kamaru usman ufc career, that is sad.
With a point deducted as well
im not saying he is done , just i dont think he cant beat leon , everybody else but leon. The same happens for adesanya. Adesanya and Usman are better than the current champions overall , but styles make fights and some athletes got the others number
Even with a point deducted bro! This was an amazing showcase to prove he’s better
Leon's wrestling defense in this fight was one of the best wrestling defenses I've ever seen in any fight
Training with khabib was worth ful
Gives me hope that these boring fighters like belal that hold people down and nothing else won’t become champions anymore. It’s bullshit. I screamed everytime Leon got up. Wonderboy needs to work on his takedown defense and he’ll be in the position to take the belt from Leon.
@@akaza.3597lmao he didn't train shiit for this fight with Khabib you casual even the last three fights he didn't wtf you talking about he did train in AKA for some months early in his career but left the gym an continued training in UK itself.
Cause Usman wrestling was trash
@@akaza.3597wait he was really training with Eagle?
So happy for Leon man. Really deserved that win ❤
At last Leon did not fight with that too passive style he had , I knew the confidence was gonna have an effect on his style he was gonna come out aggressive and throw without worrying too much like he did in past fights , easily one of his best performances.
This man has some very sharp striking. Usman could not get out of the way of those strikes! Great performance, looking forward to seeing him fight the upcoming contenders
UFC is WWE nowadays✌🏼 never again $80😂
@@BigSoldiermx man. Thank goodness uncle Dana doesn’t care about upset cry baby fans
Usaman is uncoordinated on the feet. Really ugly style.
They slept on him so much before this fight
Both are bums. Khamzat smokes these monkeys in one night
I couldn’t stop laughing at how Leon just ignored Colby and Colby just foaming at the mouth 😂
Same for me 😂😂, Glad he didn't fell for that WWE childish act.
Nice job leon haha
Ignoring an opportunity to ramp up the big money fight with Colby! Not smart… I like Leon and think he’s great! But Colby dominates and beats him like a rented mule.
@@facelesssman the fight sells itself, Leon is the real professional and adult
@@justanotherhuman9420 faxxx colby is coward
Genuine & great guys, two great champs in front of our eyes. This was great to see thanks
What a genuinely nice guy. Couldn’t be happier for Leon
no оnе cares
@@The_Eagle_Official of course a khabitch fan says that
@@Chadius_Thundercock of course a mctapper fan would say that
@@The_Eagle_Official your boy is GOAT can crusher, 16 wins in Russia against trash opponents and got belt against 11 ranked real estate agent, then defended belt against garbage wrestlers, most overrated fighter ever
He mumbles a lot. Hard to understand him. Sounds a little like Chris Eubank.
Leon did everything perfectly, controlled the clinch, attacked his legs and body with kicks knowing usman will focus more on blocking the head. Even though he was pressured constantly he moved quick on the feet and was dangerous in every exchange. No need to mention the excellent defensive wrestling, but it is actually the most impressive thing about his performance. Usman looked good, Leon looked better. We got ourselves a real champion lads!
You could tell from the weigh ins, Leon had the attitude of a champion. He went into the octagon knowing he is better, and it showed.
And that’s why Leon edwards has the most aesthetic physique
Well done Leon. With all the adversity you have had to overcome in your life, you never gave up and you stayed focused on the path to victory.
Enjoy every moment, you are a true champion.
Respect 🙌
Look at him now!!!
1-1, the rematch was a fluke
@@The_Eagle_Official 😂😂😂😂
@@The_Eagle_Official Stay salty 😂
@@Enoxificatti Thinking that Leon won is the same thing as Paddy winning against Gordon
Leon fought who he normal does. Very patient, precise, and knows how to win without overdoing things. I will say that fence grab wasn’t cool but he made up for it. I’m glad he keep the belt. Now his legacy is set forever. This makes the WW division way more interesting
Can't really judge fighters for what they do in the split of the moment. Instincts take over when it's life or death
@@TestySatchel that’s true man this isn’t a game. It’s a Fight
Todos agarram é só ele foi que tiraram ponto na segunda luta entre eles o camaru segurou e não foi ponido
He didn't make up for shit he got taken down even more after that.
@Goldman Sach this ain't life or death its no longer real fighting. They added so many rules its a joke to call it ultimate fighting now.
This is fucking sport now. It's not full contact no holds barred fighting.
Leon’s takedown defense was on point 🔥
Yeah that cage grabbing to avoid takedowns and get back up was smart
He should’ve done that with those kick to the nutz in the first two fights he would’ve won
@@smokinondatukrainepack its alright for your boyfriend usman to do it in multiple fights? Leon just returned it back to him
bro there both two company men jon jones fight was rigged because ciyral gane is a company man same as this fight kamuru usman suppose to be a collegiate wrestler he should of easily finished those shots he could have switched to a single and finish but he was acting like some scrub wrestler i could have finished those shots this is rigged all these sports are rigged some fights are not rigged but that one was rigged there both gonna get another fight and get paid.
His grappling defence overall was incredible, his escapes were so good
leon is a real champion . well done bro. god bless you and may you continue winning.
Look at him now. A superstar in the making.
He is
nah francis nganou clear
never will be
he's extremely goog but zero charisma
As much as I wanted him to, I didn’t think he was gonna win. I’m so proud of Leon man congratulations!!
stuffed the wrestling unlike last time. Denied the takedowns and the stalling style of wrestling Usman was trying to impose. He seems like a good guy, good on him for sure
@@DannieKamete ok REGGIN
@@The_Eagle_Officialcalling me the n-word for no reason, like I've personally done something to you. Is everything okay in your life? What is it that I've done to you? Someone bullying you at home? At school? At work?
@@DannieKamete Cry 👉🏻🦍🍌
@@DannieKamete don't worry about that racist he's mad probably cause he bet his house on Usman and now he's homeless on the streets
two phenomenal fighters with a class act attitude. much respect to both and congrats UK, you got a true champ!
Leon has created one of the best UFC stories ever
1. Everyone was doubting Him
2. He beat the best pound for pound fighter arguably 2 times that’s crazy 🔥 Leon is truly amazing
Those who thought it was close I don’t know what fight you were watching. Leon outplayed Usman. Props to both
Fr it was so weird seeing Usman spam takedowns and non of them really worked
Edwards lost at least two rounds.
How are takedowns scored? I’m new here and confused
@@jaymann5180 at most two. One judge gave Rocky four rounds soooo.......
@@she_uno When the fighters knee and/or butt touches the ground.
Usman can't complain about cage and glove grabs when he's been blatantly doing it throughout his career.
I laughed when they took a point given the opponent is one of the filthiest grubs I’ve ever seen fight.
Absolutely thrilled for Leon, truly🏴👊🏻💯
That’s why Leon Edwards has the most aestethic physique
Crazy to think Diaz almost KO this champ but now Leon has cemented his legacy. That was a very convincing win.
Nate didnt loose, he ran out of rounds
For real, that's says a lot.
Nate is real champ and we all know it!
Almost doesn't count
@@realaction407 champ at losing and staying in UFC.
100% deserved. What a performance!
Leons kicks are insane
So glad he won. Dudes got so much heart and its inspiring. Usman did great too
The Takedown Defence was ELITE!
facts😭. usman had no answer after leon defended those takedowns. usman feeds off those takedowns
what a great adjustment by Leon, real life rocky story
@@draco2xx Usman has no submission threat. That absent part of his game finally caught up to him.
Really makes you question whether Islam or Khabib would really struggle that much against him
@@madgavin7568100% without the threat of the submission Leon could just keep getting back up over and over. Really big hole in Usman's game. Great fight
Loved to see Usman getting humbled. Thanks Leon
Watching him and adesania getting kod was very satisfying for the mma fans. Celebration and adrenaline.
@@markparag which mma fun? We just see belts in the hands of our brothers .we rule this shit

Very impressive from the champ. The confidence Leon got from knocking Usman out and becoming the champion and Usman not being the same after that knockout blow was the difference.
Usman REALLY isn't the same anymore. We thought the KO would affect him. Guess we were right
what do u guys mean usman isn’t the same ? u mean his aggression, or confidence with stand up ?
He should've coasted and wrestled like he did this fight in the last and he wouldn't be here.
Every kick he was trying to protect his head so he left a open body kick
Juiceman never aint SHIT
Happy for Leon, truly deserves this. He went the long route and no complaints. Congratulations Champ.
Just a couple cage grabbing defenses and a couple kicks in the nutz for a easy W
Had so little faith in Leon but he showed up & showed out and proved me wrong in the process. A champ deserves this for his hard work. Well done with those body kicks.
Dude Leons takedown counter game is insane !
I love how Leon shut down Colby!
Yes!!! So glad he retained. His belt. What a fight
Those legs kicks and takedown defense was money in the bank. As for Usman, kudos to having one of the greatest runs as a champ.

Wait is Leon exciting now??
@@samblack5313 it was close in the sense that he narrowly won a lot of the rounds but he clearly won. Point deduction didnt help things either.
@@Adam-xe5xm without a point deduction it would of been 49-46 not really close
Leon in few months went from "I think I deserve the title shot" to "P4P Headshot Dead" :D
We appreciate our Champion❤❤
I will admit, he proved me wrong. I thought he was lucky the first fight, but he was truly the better competitor. Congrats to Leon and fair play to kamaru.
He WAS lucky the first fight, he was getting his ass kicked until he hit that head kick.
@@AK99581no such thing as luck in mma he won the first round and lead him into the head kick to end the fight in the 5th
Not how it works you can get Lucky and win the next fight a luck ko can have impact on the person getting kod hence why Usman was gunshy scared to fight that fluke had an impact
@@stevedaddy3498 cant be a fluke if he set him up and practiced for that kick cmon enough with the excuses lol
Dont let them bully you usman!!
LMFAOOOOO

Anyone whos ever been in a combat situation.. confidence is key
Good on u Leon. Bless the coaches ❤
Shout out to Leon for being a humble winner. That takedown defense was textbook. People will study this fight for years to come when analyzing takedown defense. Never seen it so clean. Didn't think Rocky had it in him. Now... will he do that against Chimaev?
No
Yes
@@kidadam I doubt Chimaev makes weight but it's a good fight to study.
Chimaev has the best Anti-Wrestler to worry about in Robert Whittaker. He's done at Welterweight.

Incredible journey by Leon... I felt bad for him whem everybody was mocking him for almost getting TKO'd by Dias

Congrats to champ. Head shot, dead for Real...
Diaz never almost TKO’d shit.
I was there at that fight, we all left that arena with thinking Diaz won that battle at the end, Leon deserves all this success he’s getting though
he rocked him once, it wasnt almost a tko, he was defff wobbling tho great shot by diaz but Leon Fixed his footing nd finished strong. Noone rly cares about could of ‘s bro he lost
@@FkTheUFC he did tho 😂
What a champ, being an underdog he pulled it off. Twice
Respect
You do it once, it could be luck. You do it twice, it's definitely not luck. Leon is the king at WW. Big respect to both men, very close tactical fight!
This is the power of hardwork, smartwork and perseverance. Its a great lesson to all. Leon is a hero. I always knew that leon would win, even though majority were saying usman would dominate him
Leon really did prove himself to be the best welterweight in the division. There are a lot of exciting fights for him as champion coming up.
This fight didn't in anyway show he's the best. Usman is regressing and yet was the aggressor throughout. Colby and khamzat will relish a matchup Vs leon.leon was horrible and got gifted the fight because he's the champ and the fights in UK. Otherwise all dude did was defend takedown and spam inefficient leg kicks

Great to see a man who was highly underrated and under appreciated make it to the top
His take down defense was flawless!
Well done Leon man he deserves it bro
Never seen anybody fight so well on the back foot. Well done Champ.
You can tell leon felt very bad for usman in this interview,he is a genuinely good guy,it will be weird to see usman fighting as a contender again but congrats to the champ.
Ignore Colby...he's a bum, well done
He’s not a good guy, he’s a race grifting ped monkey who spread nothing but division from the platform he was given.
Usman should probably retire or move up as long as Leon has the belt he’s not getting another shot and the only guy I can see beating Leon anytime soon is khamzat who would probably sub usman in the first round dude has legit zero bjj ability hence why Leon could just get right back up no fear of submissions at all. Also Robert would merk him at 185 he’s basically Leon with better offensive grappling and probably a bit better in the feet
No one stays number 1 forever, respect to Usman and congrats to the champ👊🔥💯👏
The man had everyone doubting him from a lucky headkick and he came and performed. Definitely excited to see who’s next for that title opportunity. Whether is Colby or not. I’m excited.
Bro he lost stop with the speech. Literally lost a point and had 15 more strikes after getting bullied
@@metalcoremania1 bullied how explain
@@metalcoremania1 Bullied How? You sound like an absolute fool. First of all - Usman's striking was absolutely embarrassing. Even Bisping commented on how laboured they looked. Second - Takedowns are absolutely useless if they pay no dividends, which they didn't.
Edwards obviously won the striking battle and his TD defence was very admirable. So what else did Usman have? (Who got cage grab Karma BTW) Even Colby agreed Leon won. 'Fuck up m8.
Colby doesn't deserve the next title shot. He's beaten nobody in the top 5. If I'm Leon I'm picking either Belal or Gilbert vs Jorge winner next.
@@metalcoremania1 I must've missed the bit where he lost... In fact, I seem to remember a majority decision W.
Crazy he won even with the points deduction (i didn’t see the 5th unfortunately) cause I thought the takedowns and fouls were gonna weigh mad heavy on Leon. So happy for him!
Respect for Kamaru too, of course
I didn’t see the 5th also
Lies. You aren't.
ALL USMAN FANS ARE A BUNCH OF CAUSALS WHO STARTED WATCHING AFTER HE KNOCKED MASVIDAL OUT TYPICAL AFRICAN AMERICAN FRUITY MEN. WE BRITISH BLACKS ARE SMARTER STRONGER AND BETTER

Leon is a perfect example of working hard and getting lucky. Extremely lucky. But what makes him a legend is that he understood that and worked even harder to defend his title. He could’ve easily just celebrated that win but he has the heart of a champion. Unreal levels of focus and determination.

To be fair, he was easily dominating Diaz up to that point. Was almost like his previous fight against Usman, where he was being dominated but got that famous head kick to land for the win.

THANK YOU FOR SAVING THE WELTERWEIGHT DIVISION LEON! Honestly tho great performance, that point deduction I'm sure would have a negative impact on a lot of fighters but Leon stayed patient and ultimately put on a clinical performance to get the W. Great job Leon!
One of the judges gave him 10 in round 2, that's after the deduction and the domination of Usman.
@@solidsnake2030 Domination? Hahahaha. His takedowns got more and more pathetically laboured as the fight went on. How the fuck did he dominate??
saving it? Hes just in the way hes not beating khamzat or shavkat so what is he saving
@@sparks1792 bro you do know khamzat is bigger right now right?
@@nicolaimyshkin4116 you know Leon isn’t on his level lmao
He definitely put in all the work and deserves the belt
Leon needs to be put in pound for pound convo. What a special special winning streak. So happy for him seems like the nicest guy. England and Jamaica should be proud
We are! Fuck the scousers that Boo him.
He’s 4 pfp
