    One of the most emotional speeches from a coach that Edwards got.
    'Dont let him bully you son!',
    'Stop feeling sorry for your fkn self!',
    'You gotta pull this sht out of fire!'
    He really pulled it out of fire at the very last moment.

      @@leelunk8235 Most of the time it's just a little too much stress to listen to your corner, pay attention to the fight, silence your own mind and also listen to the other teams corner. Also just because they call for it doesn't mean it's going to happen and Leon sold the left straight super effectively. In the fight, you have to go off of what you're seeing and feeling. It really really looked, even to us but im sure especially to Kamaru from his eyes, like the straight left was coming down the pipe and if he didn't block the straight left he'd be sleeping anyway.

    The way Leon set up that head kick was perfection. 1st guy to take Usman down, mount him, took his back and nearly got the RNC. The altitude definitely had an effect on Leon. Usman trains at altitude with already insane cardio. The trilogy will be interesting.

    Making the point that Usman is now where GSP was having lost when he wasn't supposed to (presumably he means to Serra) is all well and good but Edwards fully earned his shot. Also, the idea that Usman will just 'put things right' and win easily next time is all well and good but he's had two full fights (almost) with Edwards now and the only danger Edwards has ever been in was on the scorecards. Not once was he really hurt or in any dangerous positions. Edwards had Usman defending a triangle for well over a minute in the first fight and was attacking a RNC for over a minute in this fight and then knocked him out cold.

You made promises and kept 100 and true to yourself, I thought you were real and I invested, I believed you were telling us all along, for years, with your choice actions and words that you work quietly and you work the hardest, and many saw that humility and careful purpose as tentative or scared. I could not be happier that your private and pure determination have been vindicated and you've been proven right. A truly top tier wrestler and striker. What a story, what a fighter.

    Conversation needs to be had about Usman's constant cheating. Grabbing the fence, faked an eye poke and a nutshot that hit his belt line. Usman got humbled. Feel for him because he gets criticized for being boring and tries to KO dudes and got caught playing with fire, now he is the end of horrific KO.

      What was funny to me, the commentary team ignored it. From the TV angles, you could see Usman’s fingers interlocked into cage in nearly EVERY clinch and after most of his takedowns.

    The invincibility thing is true. When I was 9-10 I did karate (sparring matches) and always lost to a buddy of mine. Finally made it to large tournament and drew him at random. I was devastated and assumed I’d lose since I lost every other time. I beat his ass, won the tournament and never lost to him again. Flipped the script and in practice or competition he never beat me again. Crazy how one moment of one match changed something that had been going on for about 2 years

      I agree. I turned off the fight at 1 minute into the fifth round after seeing usman barely breathing heavy. Meanwhile every single other fighter on the card has a hard time with endurance, and usman always has the "I'm just getting warned up" face. It reminds me of Lance Armstrong flying up a mountain and looking like he's singing a song in his head instead of intense agony. Same thing with usman intense bursts of energy that seemingly never stop when he should be resting. This really was just karma for the ceo of epo

    One things is for sure. I will NEVER forget the moment I watched Usman (who I thought was invincible) go down like that. It felt like when I watched Tony Ferguson go down. I couldn’t bring myself to cheer or clap. Sad to watch someone I admire go down, but smart enough to know how beautiful the strike that knocked them both out were.
    Seeing how much this meant to Leon and how happy is made me love the sport even more. It reminded me of that moment between Usman and Woodleys mother. “That’s all right, it’s your time now… keep on working there gunna come for you. You bring it to them”.. and boy did they come for him… it’s Leon’s time now and I can’t wait for both of their next fight whether it’s rematch time or not.
