This is proof that champions have an aura. Once it’s taken away, they are exposed and won’t be the same. Both the opponents and the fighter himself can see and feel it.
Great comment, bro. The aura of invincibility takes out 95% of fighters.
so true. look at petr yan.... jose aldo...
A Fighter's Confidence is big. That's the real fight is coming back after defeat. That's why GSP is the GOAT. He avenged both Losses
Not really, UFC is notorious for giving fighters the edge, they put a bunch of strikers against wrestlers or stronger guys we know are weaker! Usman had a couple decent victories but realistically he fought a good amount of weak fighters who he could beat from wrestling…….
@@bigdrawsbihhh6487 hmm idk man usman is a great fighter. A lot of people were calling him the welterweight goat before the Edwards bouts!
Great bout. Usman fixed up his striking defence and Leon worked on his takedown defence.
Defense
@@Shintikibob british spelling - defence
@@Shintikibob defence lad
@@Shintikibob It’s our language bro, it’s ‘defence’
I really don’t think he did anything other than rely on his already existing takedown defence. Elevation gave Usman a huge advatnage and Leon ran out of energy quicker from the lack of oxygen.
0:06 pure class from the champ 👏
Exactly, stoped the crowed booing. Respect to Leon.
Leon Edwards classy champion, getting the crowd to stop booing Kamaru Usman ✊🏽💯🫡
Leon waving the crowd to stop booing usman.
That's a champion
a loser
no 1 booed usman..

0:07 great sportsmanship from Leon edwards telling the fans to cheer Usman👌
He hasn’t been the best sport let’s be real. Usman revealed he a bit better morals than Leon in all this.
Leon desperate though so I get it
@@southpoor5716 stay mad
@@southpoor5716 ahhahhahah foh usman got cocky twice and got humbled by leon now leon rubbing it on his face
@@lltipsy Facts 😂
@@gabemaisano2327 that dude is so salty lol
Thats gotta sting so bad, twice in a row. So happy for Edwards though he proved the doubters wrong yet again!
He’s been dominated for 12 rounds in 3 fights and he has more fouls then we’ve ever seen in a championship fight. Leon lost tonight
@@MrTiton536 who has the belt ?
@@MrTiton536 usman was cheating like fook in the second one. Leon was being dirty tho but he still won
@@Moistkilla The guy who cheated
He didn’t prove any doubters wrong everyone was backing Leon
Respect to usman, guy is one of the best to do it
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol Kamaru said I'll be back to challenge him again, and DC was like I gotta get outta here, but good luck with all that my brova 🏃♂️ 😂😂
He was..lol
@@clintyoung8243 I mean he just fought for the world title, lost a close decision and is ranked No 2 in the world, think that’s thats the technical definition of one of the best to do it 😂
Usman>khabib and its not even close just look at their resume, title defens, title wins and winstreak.. usman is just way better
What Usman needs is to add offensive submission to his arsenal. He fixed up a lot of things in his defense 👏👏👏
Yh definitely still one of the greatest champions
Too late. If he's not doing offensive submissions at 35, I don't think he'll suddenly start doing them
Bro exactly, he had 2 subs and one for certain! He definitely needs to focus on subs since he has wrestling
@@wiibbz he doesnt wrestle anymore because he doesnt have the conditioning. he also fell in love with his striking and he walks forward after getting hit like the korean zombie. His reflexes and quickness have greatly declined and his takedown attempts are very poorly timed. His better days are behind him. He had a good run while it lasted.
Keep crying
Makes me wanna cry 😢 hurts seeing him lose but the best man won
nah he does steroids and cheats himself, pleb got what was coming to him
@James I don’t get what u mean, i meant cry because I liked usman and seeing him fall off is upsetting but also I like Leon so it’s a hit an miss , I would of been upset either way
@James says a loser on youtube comments named 'James' LOL!
@@ComingToATheaterNearYouur a sad human being
@James chill out lol no real fan of anything acts like that
Respect what Leon does behind usman while he got interviewed by dc , him telling fans to support and show love his a true gent and winner 🥇 and so is usman
Pure class from usman in that speech there respect to great champion in himself 👏 👏 👏
Honorable even in defeat!! Warrior!
Respect to both these warriors.
Both of them are champions
Usman deserves a lot of respect for what he has done in the division.
@0.06 What a great gesture from the Champ, true class
Man mad respect to usman I can see him being humble after the KO but showing integrity after this one is admirable 💯
Respect for his humility in defeat
Trevor Witt man is such an awesome coach!! He definitely loves the sport. He was smiling from the moment him and gaethje walked to the octagon to kamaru doing the interview.
It was close, but it wasn’t THAT close. Well don Leon
Respect to usman but how on earth could anyone think he won?. He basically just walked forwards and eat body/leg kicks the whole fights whilst failing takedowns 🤷♂️ don’t even think he won a round tbh
Im english and so proud of leon. But usman defo won 2 rounds lol ur deluded
@@kanekennedy8819 haha no the only round he won imo was the 2nd round even tho leon got a point deduction in the 3rd he still won the round😂
Even being a usman fan I can see he’s slowing down now . He’s on the decline now . His knees defo caught up with him now
Usman definitely won round 3 and 2, 4, and 5 were extremely tight. I’d personally give Usman rounds 3 and 5 but I don’t know who you’d pick for 2 and 4 so by that logic it should’ve been a draw or Usman win
@@Goated2002 Leon wobbled him in the 2nd and that was the hardest shot of the round. Def won that round. I think Usman only win round 3 10-8
Sad to see a great champion like him lose. It's really not easy to rank up title defenses like he did.
He’s old. Gonna retire soon. Not everyone can be bones jones winning title at 35.
@@combatbeatdown Jon basically had 3 years of rest lol
Meanwhile, everyone is ecstatic that a crisp, technical striker has the belt again.
@@TheSk8erGamermfs gonna go from 'nah he has ring rust aint no way he still got it' to 'nah he rested too much he too good'
@@TheSk8erGamer 3 years of rest and juice
UFC 400: It is not over

Conor vs nate diaz 5
*Conor fight twice that cards
DC vs Jones 4
Cocky Usman got served with another humble pie. He must love Leon's humble pie.
He seems ok to me
This was not the Usman we're all use to seeing, he was exhausted and sluggish but still pressed forward every round.
My guess is he's not in his best form right now but wont ever put an excuse on the table, if he was who he was last fight, this is as one sided as it should of been
He was exhausted from being kicked in the leg and body 100 times. Cmon
Get used to it he lost his confidence that’s what the head kick did last fight, no way he should be out of form and got in there to revenge is embarrassing lost last fight
He must have changed his training routine or underestimated leon!
@@marafps this
That’s funny I thought the same thing. From the start he looked slow to me.
What most fans aren't taking into account are usmans knees. If that dude had good knees he would be so much better. The fact hes done what hes done with having bad knees says a lot about him. Props to the former champ.
That's wassup. Great ending . All respect with a true definition of real sportsmanship.
Give it a week and Usman will say he had a injury and he wasn't 100% 😂😂
Tbf usman won that fight.
@@daebak7370 no😂
humble usman is the new usman, i doubt it, if it was colby in 2021 then prolly
@@daebak7370 Big FACTS
@@WJBrown I thought I was only one that thought that (UK here). He looked like he was controlling the fight for the most part. But clean shots get the judges wet
That smile from his coach gets me everytime 😂
Trevor Wittman is crazy lol. All happy hugging leon.
I saw bro smiling when Usman was on the mic
@@hakunamatata-w3873 First thing when the video starts. Thats leon he's hugging.
He's a hypocrite and only wants to train champions.
He's very humble. Fair play to him. I was a hater but his humbleness won my respect
Kamaru Usman was a dominant champion, humble respectful fighter, valiant effort, he will be back ✊🏽💯🇳🇬🫡
That was real honourable 👏🏾 what a guy and what a career hes had I'm sure he will be back
Usman seemed unbeatable for a long time but hungry people are always gunning for the top.
Usman is done he's , Leon's time it's like the young guy taking out the old champ
Leon was the better fighter today but good fight from both of them
Leon would beat him in the next 10 fights they have. Father time has a grip on usman
2 phases fighters go through
killer
humble
3 years ago, I couldn't stand usman..... but even know in defeat, i have more respect for him than ever. He is and will always be one the best ro ever do it. From foot stomping to knock out of the year..... even after the second colby fight, still shook his hand and was respectful.
Love this dude !!!!
Sportsmanship is always the cherry on top.
Edwards won every round except round 3 (due to a point deduction).
He still won that round as well
Usman defo won round 2

Wrong.

Mad Respect to Usman
Usman Edwards are like Ali Frazier ... Great dance partners.. They'll both give there soul for us
Now for Izzy to get humbled again 😂
Lol.. Cant wait 🤣🤣
He's heart broken man shii, he's done leon broke him
Relax lmao
uhm, relax libcuck, he ain't broke.
@@TheSk8erGamer Nah he won't recover from that
Leon win by points . and running all time😅
Broke em like a Kit Kat
Fer play usman, very respectful, big shout out to Edwards, I never had any doubt
Respect Usman ❤❤
Good fight bro usman,much love
Glad he was humble and accepted it
He’s a brotha… always bringing in race
The stats show a big difference in significant strikes for Leon in all rounds except the second
Usman really made me 😢 after this fight. I'll say this, much respect to Kama.. Usman for a great fight and a perfect speech shows a level of respect he is. It hurts me inside times like this and how dominate he was and run through everyone in this division, I'm proud of him for what he achieve in the UFC great family man, here are your flowers my brother 💐 ⚘️⚘️✌
Cashed in on head shot dead last year - just cashed in AGAIN and I love seeing Usman on verge of tears. This is the best interview he’s ever given
Leon wrestling defense was super guys.
After the psychological head kick I am proud of Usman no doubt he will be back even though he lost proud of him
Edwards has alot of class as a person
Leon stopping the crowd booing usman is pure class, I don't really like usman to be honest but he deserves his respect
Usman is also a gentleman, both are good person.
Nothing sweeter in the UFC than seeing Usman humbled.
Respect all around even from the fans at the end, gotta love that
Lol i enjoyed 5th round when Usman panicked and went failed takedowns after takedowns. With 5 sec on clock he went into clinch.
Usman is the better fighter and should have won that fight or draw. Leon ran the whole fight. Dude is also dirty fighter.
@@daebak7370 Leon's the dirty fighter? Usman grabs the fence and fakes a lowblow or eye poke every fight
Class act 🔥
I'm Nigerian but truth be told Leon won all five rounds. He was simply the superior fighter and it showed.
He didn't win all five rounds, cut the bs. He certainly won more rounds and was the better fighter on the night.
Can't say I'm surprised with a Nigerian going against their own though. The only black nation on planet earth that has a reputation for doing that.
@@Obiodum_ Only round Usman won was 3, without the deduction Leon wins by a landslide
@@alexboultonboxing6489 Usman won 2 rounds.
@@Obiodum_ maybe in your dream?
........................................ So much Honor to lose and speak with respect and shake hands ...very classy in a defeat
Gotta respect to Usman humble in defeat. Great job Leon . Hope they make Colby vs Leon . So Leon can make another bag 💰
Lol everyone gets humble in defeat 😂
Wittman with his big smile is so funny lol
Kamaru brother ready for the whole O2 arena
No way he thought he “Won” that fight honestly for many reasons
Fair play to kamaru but... AND STILLLLLL! 🏆👑👊🏻🇬🇧🙌🏻
yo Leon im from London couldn't hope or wish for a British champ but g Colby is a different kettle of fish good luck your gonna need it my man
kamaru has always been a dominant and true champion
That’s how a champ responds, good on ya Kamaru, Shevchenko take note.
May God plan☝️🕊congratulations Leon🦁
Leon has grown so much as a fighter, He is just getting better and better.. Usman hasn't grown.. His time is over!
🔥🔥🔥 Leon baby!!!
Not usmans biggest fan, but handled this brilliantly
Respect to usman man’s a warrior Leon is a dangerous man
The crown is absolutely stupid to boo a losing ex champion albeit I admire the class action of the new champ in stopping the crowd from their demoralizing act.
After this win, Edwards can for fill his promise to his mom. Help her with the restaurant.
True words .. Usman is one a the greatest of all time as well but ...
Usman is good but Leon Edwards is just BETTER.
Nah, usman is just aging
It's just like Pereira with Izzy. Izzy is great champ but Pereira is just better.
An. I think usman is just on the back 9. Great champ. Cringy dude but well deserved HOF induction soon.
@@footballvidshd5421 yassss Leon
Leon is just 31 and Usman is 36
Look at DC arms, as big as his head. Amazing!!!
He ain't beating leon ever again leon will reign for some time yet goooooooo england❤❤❤
He can go back into the top 5 rotation
He’s not going too give up I think he can Beat him but it’s not going too be Easy Leon Ain’t no Joke
Yes sir 🤝, skill talks bullshit runs a marathon 🫡💯 congratulations Leon
Kamaru has already proved to be one of the best welterweights of all time behind gsp and matt hughes
Humble in defeat..that's where win over fans
Kamaru must respect all JUDGES.
Man Kamaru is a hard guy to give props too
Still entertaining in defeat. Hats off
Usman is out of his prime at this point going up against a younger guy all the knee injuries and surgeries and limping, going through so many wars, being in his mid thirties.
Big up champ.
That KO changed usman....he ain't coming back
Leon waving for the crowd to stop booing and ro show Usman respect, and Usman giving the respect straight back after a close fight. Class acts here to be fair
Please Usman should start learning submission techniques now, great submission techniques. Not just take downs but submission techniques at the same time.
OOOOOOHHHH USMAN V CHIMAEV???? AYYYY THAT’D BE A MOOOVVIIIEEE
I can see
Khamzat v usman
Usman loses retires
Fights jake paul for money fight
that fraud didnt make weight, forget about it.
Congratulations, let's see Edwards Vs Colby next
usman should move up to light heavyweight since he's not willing to bang with izzy at middleweight, nobody is interested in a 4th fight with leon and usman
Edwards was way more efficient with his strikes n his defence was good! He made his strikes count
" he's a brother just like myself"
Gracious in defeat he was a good champion. But like every run it has to end. Would love Leon to defend 4-6 times and retire on too
