UFC Welterweight Division Champion Leon Edwards joins the Flagrant x UFC Stream ahead of UFC 281 at Madison Square Garden in New York City to talk to Andrew Schulz and the crew about defeating Kamaru Usman for the Welterweight Title, how life has changed as a champion, and growing up in the rough midlands of the UK. - ตลก
Leon edwards knocking usman into the shadow realm and then giving that iconic post fight speech was my favourite moment of the sport, ever. I still listen to that speech to fire me up.
I absolutely agree.
Hell yeah me too
Randomly screaming out “look at me now” has become a normal part of my day 😂
😂
Man i loved that moment so much
Im from Birmingham in an area next to Erdington/ Aston (where Leon grew up), he has his face spray painted on the wall of a popular street for everyone to see as he is a true hero to the community. Birmingham is a really tough place to grow up in, let alone become a world champion, so he is a true legend to brum🫡
You gotta love how unapologetically Birmingham Leon is! He shows Americans that the UK is more than just “London”
He will lose against kamaru in the trilogy
@@hmsp7799hes permanently dented usmans malteeze head
@@hmsp7799 take that pee pee out your mouth
@@hmsp7799 if he felt like he wasn't ready why would he hop right back in the ring with him. People come online to pray for someone else's downfall like get your life together clearly your not happy.
0121 baby
leons really the man bro. So down to earth and easy to talk to, one of the boys. Really hope he can keep this championship for a long time.
Love the guy but not happening 😭
He fights in the same division as Colby chaos Covington so I doubt he’ll keep it for 2 more fights
@@Mrimperialbeast if he can KO usman he can submit Colby. Watch HIM.
@@SBAssociation submit? I doubt it but he will probably defend the takedown and piece him up pretty good.
@@Mrimperialbeastdidn’t age well
I love how hyped the Flagrant boys were for him. Real ones 👊
Real FAKE
coked up
Fake af🤣
@@matrix35 Shits annoying as hell.
'Look at me now'... Leon is a real good dude.
Leons laugh is so iconic haha. The genuine joy behind is laugh is wholesome af.
Chris L the best kind of laugh
Leon’s laugh is unreal
He’s got a great energy
Yeah he has one of those laughs that make you laugh lol god bless
His laugh reminds me of david lucas(kill tony)
Leon is such a nice guy outside the ring. Had the priviledge of meeting him once, and he was generous with his time, and a pleasure to speak with. Been cheering him on since he joined the UFC, and no one is more deserving of success. I hope he goes on to defend his title mulitple times, and makes a ton of money. Nothing but good words for Rocky.
the big man. how can anyone dislike leon. Genuine geezer who plugged away and achieved it all the hard way.
Leon the freakin man.. always been humble, had the maddest grind to the top. Deserves to do whatever the hell he wants however he wants to do it ...
True geordies analysis on Leon edwards headkick was also superb
I love that over the top intro. Leon has earned it. That high kick was badass.
So proud of this guy, I had the pleasure to be at his block party celebration at his mom's house yo the vibes was in incredible
Zaidan fr?
@@poriccrompton yes the party was brilliant on his street lots of food and drinks and to see Leon dance with his family holding the belt was emotional
"You are taking everything I worked for"
- Joe Rogan -
"I'm going to interview your ass!"
That intro was sick!!! Got me hyped°!!!!
My man always drop in bangers
Wow great watch guys thankyou all 🔥
Pound for pound Jamaica is the most influential country in the world. 484 miles long but global in reach.
I would argue ireland is
HAHAHAH Ireland!? definitely not! 😂 surely it’s Qatar right now
That would be England
England has a population of 68 million so not exactly a good example. And what influence has Qatar had anywhere in the world before the World Cup? What influence the island of Ireland has globally? Guinness, st Patrick’s day, Halloween, Go anywhere in the world you find an Irish bar.. etc etc, Jamaica similar population and also very influential but I’m just giving my 2 cents :) it’s all subjective any way.
Scotland has invented more products and philosophies than almost any other country and we're just 5 million people. 270 miles long. We're the Demetrious Johnson of nations.
Great episode boys 🔥
I’m sooooo happy that he won the title ❤
The way Shultz looks at Ariel when he roasts him from ”not knowing” is priceless
Hell yeah leon. Usman 3 is gonna be a battle and you can bet Usman is gonna be more tuned in.
Leon probably gonna remember the pressure of the fifth. Being over looked I think he's always dialed in calm and confident. Just listen to him talk.
Love it go on Leon look at me now is an iconic line
So glad Alex finally got that handshake 🤣
big up on the belt, keep moving forward and keep that shit 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
ariel always with the fresh dunks on 🔥
I’m from Birmingham & Leon is laughing about having to call the armed police & people don’t fight with them because we have respect for them but the truth is THE ARU (armed response unit) are always driving around & take under 10 mins to get to any situation & there not overweight donut eating cops , there a highly trained unit with heckler and Koch’s & there very accurate & fast , it’s basically the special forces & there no joke
Man I love you Leon you won me so much money in that usman fight
Love Leon! ❤ Have him back 😊
Damn Shultz should just be an mma commentator straight up
Been rooting for Leon so long and watching him get looked over for more talk heavy fighters by the UFC and fans. So happy he is the champ. Never doubted it.
This should have been a full episode, yes his Birmingham accent is think but get his name out there hes the champ
For now, but Usman will wrestlefuck him in the rematch to get the belt back
I don't think it's cause he has an accent, he probably didn't have the time.
Big up leon man !! 0121 brum town champ !!
Leon ‘yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah’ Edwards
I dont think i can finish this video
Yeah 100 percent
Damn this man represents us so well
Leon sounds like a British T-Pain
It really is better, when you have a guy who’s waited a long time to be champ, and a big underdog going in get the win/ko , it was crazy
Ariel is the Drake of the Ufc commentary world
1 word: Champ
💜💙 aston villa Leon Edwards ❤️
This is gold
After years of hanging out with rampage, Ariel knows how to deesculate a situation😂
love leon man
He's only 31 idk how long he will be Champ but he will be among the Top 5-6 Welterweights for another good 4 Years
Me randomly sitting bolt upright from a dead sleep in thirty years: "Ariel was sitting in Akaash's chair."
Brumtown represent
Wheres this full episode???😅
Took forever to sip that 😂😂😂 Andrew couldn't wait
0:24 hold on hold on hold on hold on, can we switch the language?
Go Leon
Yeasss Rocky
Mate if Leon beats Usman in England he will be fucking massive in the UK
#leonedwards for the algo
The random guy walking pass the screen @8:57 just got me mad as hell cause why df he couldn’t just walk behind the camera smh😂
Is this an mma channel now?
Damn Schulz got him on but Michael bisping can't lmao
Ariel is so out of place, I love it 🤣
Leon sounds like Patrick clover world greatest cop 😂
Leon ‘I enjoyed it’ Edwards
Helwani in the de la souls 👀
Still waiting till Andrew lights that cig
Schultz is TROLLING Ariel so bad. He sigle handedly took the number 1 UFC show spot in 3 episodes without trying.
Thats why Birmingham produced Black Sabbath. lol
Why is Andrew holding on to the cigarette? It’s just for looks
I can’t believe Leon has won ten fights in a row with no title shot 😢
When rocky walked in and y’all started celebrating is the way the champ should be welcomed. Good shit. He deserves the love.
Feel like alot could've been said in this without all the interruption
That’s not what this show is about.
@@tonymarselle8812 what is it about ?
@@tlryan2k9 It's a take the piss and have fun show. The main purpose is not interviewing.
Violation: first thing is take his belt
Principality stadium ? I’ll be there baby, just down the road from me.
Ps it will always be known as the millennium stadium to me 😂
Andrew come to B19 and you will see
Leon Lucky kick Edawards
BMF BELT NEXT. Diaz down Masvidal headshot. Let's get it on
Americans still asking if London has 'hoods', just repeat the same questions everytime its a UK guest. Lame.
They struggle to understand the concept that poverty exists everywhere
Can barely understand bro 😢
I dont understand clearly Leon.. hard core accent.
Ariel getting roasted every 40 sec
You need to let your guests talk man ffs 🤦🏽
I’m convinced Andrew don’t actually drink or smoke. Just likes to hold them
Ariel came out of nowhere
Yhyhyh yeah didn’t hear him say no
Who wins out of Leon v Islam at UFC 300
hard not to like leon
ARIEL?????????
When did that Indian guy become so tall? And also mma journalist?
People get confused because we think hooligans is goofy not like gangs and ghetto
bob marleys dad was full white
Yooo the fuck does Andrew know about JLP/PNP garrisons 😂 hats off to him. His haters call him a culture vulture but he takes the time to know his stuff
Shultz is the biggest clout chaser on the planet. If you've done something great, guaranteed he'll try be your best friend
Ok thought i was just thinking that
7:36 A few words on the UK fight scene (as a London born Londoner). I completely understand why Americans would think that the UK fighting and violent crime scene isn't comparable. Though this is a dangerous illusion. The unfortunate fact is, our criminals want to be like US street gangs more than the US street gangs. In this sense, our gangs are like the perceived underdog that feels a need to prove the world otherwise. Second to that, traditionally the British Isles (a bit like Russia) prides itself on its bare knuckle (real) fighting as opposed to relying on tools. People do use weapons, but they are like the lowest of the low. Those guys will rob of their own nan and do anything for 15 seconds of fame. Many of our gangs will pick on any guy if they're confident they can beat and rob them. They will usually use numbers, they're usually between the ages of 15 and 25 but can be outside of this scope. Many of them will stab a man just for the heck of it, for status gain within the in-group, something to talk about with their mates later. Many gang members do have guns, you can tell by reading the lines between crimes presented in the news but also, the shifty behaviours of certain people in certain areas at certain times. If there's a big group causing trouble, too big for police to deal with completely, you can bet someone will be carrying a gun for the fact they know the chances are slim that they will be picked out of the crowd.
Poor Leon is the champ now and still can’t get his story out
People think he wont defend the belt like he got lucky or something, like he dont know how to win.
the man`s on a freakin like 12 fight win streak.
all he gotta do is beat the CEO of EPO Usman again, and after that, he`s cleanin out the rest of the division like volkanovsky.
beating Usman again will be hard as hell, but once thats done, its gonna be smooth sailing.
Usman looked juiced to the gills though in their last fight, Edwards better come super ready because Usman is comin super juiced
Chael said it himself , There’s a couple guys juicing and if he said the names it would cause riots. I got my money on usman too
Volkanovsky is a Featherweight going to lightweight now. Why would Volk fight a welterweight at his size??
@@sillesrepa8249he was saying he’d clear out WW like Volk cleared FW
@@cxoolio Aaah ok my bad
Lol dumb guy
For fuck sake just rename the video YEAH YEAH YEAH
Not able to understand the guy :(
They should get Brendan shcuab on here!
JK
Yermawsfae Scotland
We all know what happens to the fighter that come on this podcast… my money is Covington now
This didn't age well
Leon getting pulled over for driving while black. How dare he
i cant imagine how intimidating it must be for leon to sit across from men with such BIG noses
Deh yah a laugh 😂😂 alright Andrew me like how u know sumn bout the culture
