Love that Leon didn’t try and be something he wasn’t in order to become a star. He took the long way and it worked out better for him in the long run. So happy for him this will do a lot for UK and hopefully Jamaican MMA as well.
He kept quiet, Now he has earned the right to speak hope people get behind him now .....
It's helped him grow a very loyal and mature fanbase, it's great to see.
@@Cbrown-yy1jc definitely Dana said he could defend his belt at wembley stadium that would be the biggest night in uk mma history. Leon’s the man
He deserves a title shot
Yeah i never got why people wanted him to be something he's not....there's enough cringe fighters trying too hard
No trash talk, no gimmicks, just pure martial arts. That kick!
Exactly!
I used to think the "Rocky" nickname was a little bit cringe and quite generic, but he really has lived up to that nickname
Fax man🙏🏻
Boy!! Didn't he just?!?!
He wasn’t named after the movie. He got that nickname from the streets
@@nyfolkhero the streets got that name from the movie and gave it to him, why would he be called it otherwise?
Anthony Smith also has an initially eyebrow raising yet accurate nickname, after that Glover Teixeira fight I instantly understood why he was given it... the same goes with Leon Rocky Edwards.
As an American, have to say…first, big congrats to Leon. Second, fantastic coverage all week by BT Sport. Nick Pete was excellent at all he was asked to do…pre-fight interviews, weigh-in show, interview with Leon after and the recap show. Congrats all around, lads!
He’s a special talent in the build up and analysis. His passion for the sport is infectious and he needs to appear more on the USA 🇺🇸 broadcasts. 👏
What a great comment to read, as a Brit myself it makes me happy when our cousins across the pond take a liking or an interest in anything from these shores. I think because America is so vast we get so used to it mainly being Americans on TV, so when I see a bloke like Nick being praised by people who are used to the elite level broadcasters it makes me happy for him.
Headshot. Dead!!! Buzzing for Rocky. Bringing it home and will hopefully defend in the UK. Terry Crews has been humbled.
I love how raw and real Leon is. That was one of the most beautiful post fight interviews I've ever had the pleasure to witness
😂😂😂😂 That Terry Crews reference will never get old to me because its so accurate lol.
A man who had nothing takes away a man who has everything well deserved win celebrate him 🇬🇧 🏴
Brendan Fitzgerald is a great addition to the BT team, I know he's filling in for Bisping and Catterall but he's doing a great job
Nick Peet is the only one of the BT Sport crew that came to Utah to see it live. Congrats for witnessing another British fighter getting a belt. Leon is the real Rocky
Adam Catterall was commentating on the Usyk v Joshua fight in fairness to him, had to go where the bosses sent him! He's always been a massive Rocky fan.
I think its the biggest smile ive ever seen on a man!
@@nklin6 I thought the same when I first watched it this morning! Nick be like 😁
After slagging Leon off on the fight disciples
Bisping is in Bulgaria filming a movie.
Can't wait to see Rocky defend his belt at Wembley lets go champ
Arenas are so much better than stadiums.
Fr! The atmosphere will be electric 👏
Ooohhhh that'll be insaaane
@@1992LJR he means Wembley arena he ain’t selling out the stadium lol 😭
@@MalcolmTann0 Wembley Arena has a capacity of 12,500. The O2 Arena has a capacity of 20,000. They're not talking about Wembley Arena. They're definitely on about the stadium.
BIRMINGHAM MMA ON THE MAP, OUR BOY DID IT 🎯💥🇬🇧🦁🏆
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Is he always there?
Bro the city needs to show the man some respect and get behind him.
Now he is “our” boy?
🇬🇧 well done Leon
By far the best post fight reaction by any newly crowned champ
Him and Charles where something special to watch but the passion and energy behind Rocky was better than any movie that could of been written
Leon could not possibly have done a better job with his post fight speech. it was Iconic. hes going to be a superstar now.
I've watched it multiple times and will continue to! Love that speech
@@ethernetify The difference being Nunes had just started her family, didn't have as much time to train and underestimated Peña.
Usman had the altitude on his side, the ref on his side (got away with 12 fouls and faked getting fouled twice), and luck on his side (Leon slipping and even getting his toes caught in the cage while standing). It was one of Usman's most well-rounded and impressive performances and still got caught in round 5 after Leon read Usman's typical reaction to a 1-2 like a book.
@@ethernetifytakedown mounted and back taken in the 1st closest to a finish then Usman ever was nothing like Nunes vs pena
Man... nicks passion is so good to see. Not many people gave leon a chance apart from us brits. Ariel helwani did and a select few fighters but not many. Just nice to see how happy nick is... just like I was...and still am-24 hours later
So proud of Leon ,so deserved . Highlight reel finish💯🇬🇧🇯🇲
🇯🇲🇬🇧
Leon deserves everything thats coming to him. Great guy, Great fighter.
Brought the title back home 🇬🇧 big up yourself Leon
I’ve never seen nick pete look so happy
Leon Edwards made for embarrassment that Anthony Joshua bought with his fight and post fight speech.
Aj embarassed us. Leon redeemed us
AJ embarrassed himself when he did that stupid speech, like Dillian, Tyson said AJ is an actor his true self was shown Saturday.
Bro I can't stand Joshua! Dude overrated asf
The sad part is all the uk media will be talking about aj’s loss rather than Leon’s win
@@definitelynotatroll246 just look at sky sports bbc sports all about Joshua. Such disrespect to mma from the main UK news stations
Was taught a valuable lesson early this morning. Never switch off in MMA. Was feeling hugely disappointed ready for a Usman decision win, started tidying up to go to bed. Got back to the TV Usman was out cold! So happy for Leon!! we have our second champion 🏴 We are off to Wembley 🎉🍾
Same for me dude. I was totally pissed that Usman jog sniffed his way to another victory, then the kick came. I almost had a heart attack. Never been so happy watching UFC.
@@frankcastle3942 moments like that is why we get up at 3am! Was awesome to see such a clean KO 🔥
@@frankcastle3942 nah be fair, Usman was mixing it up better and having his way with Leon who looked like he was mentally defeated before bringing it back
@@thedirtytrader7807 I was wired out me head, it sobered me right up!
Nick is a legend. Genuinely happy for Leon
He’s not. He’s slagged Leon off so many times on his podcast. Saying he will never be champ and should go to bellator. Him and Adam Caterol have done it

Imagine being Adam Catterall having to go watch AJ throw 2 belts then take the mic in usyks moment (which is disrespectful af) throw a temper tantrum cos he lost instead of being at Leon's fight in person to watch him make history & get what he's deserved for such a long time😬😂
Yeah gotta be disappointing lol AJ really made a fool of himself there. Such a shame after a great fight too
Especially after both Adam and nick have spoken so highly of Leon for ages now...bet he was gutted!
Big up Leon Edwards fly de flag for Jamaica & England. Big win. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🏴
1:17 This is why the Gumshield is mandatory
Put some respect on that mans NAME!!!
ALL OF U.K should be proud!!
I’ve been a fan of Leon’s since the early days and can’t wait for him to go on Ariel’s show.
Stand up Jamaica, Stand up UK, your boy has done it! 💪🏼
What a night full of emotions.
Want to say again Brendan has been a great fill in, definitely works well would like to see more of him with the BT sports crew.
He's always been great with bisping, got a lot of time for him!
What a fight, well done Leon, and well done to the local gym in Birmingham as well!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Leon bringing that belt home in spectacular fashion.
Respect from Wales 👌🏻👍🏻
Leon’s kick on Usman was the Michael Jordan of MMA performances
Nick's smile says it all really doesnt it!?
Look at that massive grin on Nick Pete's Face! LOL
Film worthy his bio is incredible!!! I am delighted for him, his family, birmingham, I'm and Jamaica
UK not I'm
6 straight cancelled fights, no fights in 2020, dad was shot and killed at 13. Fairs to say Leon Edwards has defied the odds. Then KO's mr undefeated in Usman, that story is seriously INSANE AND HES HALF BRITISH. Love this hopefully wins at Wembley too ❤🙏
jamaican born British bread
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥First ever born Jamaican UFC champion🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nicks smile in the intro. So happy for Leon
Look at Nick's smile hahaha.
The strap is coming to Birmingham England yeeeeeeeaaahhhh it's surreal what a man Leon 'Rocky' Edwards 🇬🇧🏴🇯🇲, finally another champ!!!!
Huge Congratulations to Leon, well worth the 3am alarm call! Let’s hope the trilogy fight is in the UK
Fight was on at about 5.30am..
@@garlic_bread4769 I watched the whole main card which started at 3am
@@benmccarthy923 Dana has already said he can fight at Wembley 🏴🇬🇧
Nick is loving it!
Leon Edwards the first true English champion
Ay ?
Also the fact he accepted a Khamzat fight 3 times people need to get behind him
He's defo fighting Khamzat next i reckon
@@Dmc841 No they will go for the Trilogy, Pump Edward's up because he has got Character he just didn't talk when he wasn't Champion, then they will make the Khamzat Fight but yes that is coming soon,
@@Cbrown-yy1jc yh they need to milk the uk before that fight
It's a Brum ting! Leon congratulations! Cherry on the cake after the Commonwealth
had to pause the video just 9s in just to cackle aloud at nick's grin. cackled at it the entire 20min . we do deserve a smile though finally.
Leon Edward🥳🥳🥳
My man done it🫵🏼🫵🏼🫵🏼
Not even 💯 tonight
LOVE THIS GUY... SO MUCH PASSION
Brendan did a great job dovetailing with Nick this week!
We may be a small country, but we are a great country! Well done, Rocky, bringing the belt back home.
Really enjoyed that. Great work guys.
Won 1000$ on a 30$ parlay thanks to Rocky!! LFG Leon!!!
leon was +260 how did u win this much?
@@sahilshokeen6078 he said “ parlay” that means he combined multiple fights together
Congratulations matey! Enjoy your winnings!!
@@sahilshokeen6078 parlay is what the Americans call an accumulator mate.
@@KingDomsKingdom85 oh okay
This was so unexpected man. What a movie.
I love this for Leon and all the fight disciples!!! Never seen Nick so happy. Cheers lads 🍻
Look at the smile on nick peat's face! Same as mine was when I saw usman flatlined
Made up for him he done it the hard way Leon shows he wanted it more.
loved Brendan saying 'undoubtably' at 9:57 and Nick taking the opportunity to correct him at 11:33 😂
We in the UK deserve this
Remember MMA GURU was the only one who picked Leon!!
We're all propper proud of Leon our Jamaican born British warrior much love rocky......aaaadddrrrriiiiaaaannnn 🤣🤣
Can't believe this man has pulled it off, he's become a star overnight and inspired millions.
Nick is the best. Great duo here and what a joy for the UK.
I've got to be honest , I've never been a rocky fan until this week I learned his journey from the streets to UFC champ, what a journey and yea once I realised his struggles I've been interested in seeing more of him , he really needs to put himself out there 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
“Goodnight Diana” 🤣🤣
That big nick smile says it all
Nicks face 😁😁 top fella 👍
😂😂😂😂😂
Great guys!!!
Tom Holland should play him if there was ever a Leon Edwards movie.
😂
We done it baby! Excellent coverage from bt sport. Well done Leon , well done bt sport.
Leon.Rocky.Edwards.Oh My Goodness !!! 🏆🏆🏆
Such a great win! The setup was sick ☺️✌️
Amazing, am still screaming
No more Adam BT !! he chose aj over Leon ..he done
wow..leon delivered in the end..better late than never. Was absolutely shocked to see the finish..didnt feel real for a second..hat's off to leon & his team. The rocky song playing while leon was taking in the moment was straight outta a movie..hats off lad.
Brendan and Nick work well together
Been fan Leon for while now what a win everyone doubted him massive respect for him
Still can’t believe Adam Catterall was in Jeddah listening to Joshua lose the plot over watching Rocky send Usman to the shadow realm!
I loved every bit of watching this video 💯
Congrats Leon and the family ❤
Wow Leon what a way
Leon had a true rocky moment nickname earned
So so so deserving, hard working, skillful, powerful, masterful, UFC, World Welterweight Champion. Big up Rocky, bap bap bap
Love Nick!!
Always liked Fitzy he a class act.
Nick peets smile could not be wider!love it
Good job all week lads 👍🏼 come on edwards
Brilliant Rocky
Such a great duo -- Love Brendan Fitz and Nick P of COURSE! :P
The irony. It's poetic. It's beautiful
He hasn't been the most exciting fighter. Effective but not very exciting from what I've seen
Then at the big show he ends things in the most spectacular way over one of the best Welterweights ever after losing the majority of the fight and was 56 seconds away from losing the whole thing
Nick's face at the start! 😁😁
Split audio? Cmon BT
Congrats Rocky, however, giving Masvidal the next title shot will be an outrage even with the backstory. If Usman needs some time, Rocky can defend vs. Chimaev (even Colby). Jorge needs a W & then he could get the fight with only 1W bc of his popularity & the storyline if Leon is still the champ.
That smile on Nicks face priceless
never been so happy for a fighter!!
great post-fight show from BT and big congrats to the champ Leon Edwards!
I’m thrilled he won I’m still buzzing. And fyi guys all my friends wanted usman to lose and I’m in Florida. I don’t think ppl worry too much about where a fighter is from anymore. Happy for the uk
Big up Brum our boy did it 👏🔥
Just think how that changed his life because in a matter of seconds he would have never fought for the belt again but that one leg kick changed his life so massive. It’s insane to think about.
Nick Peet got a big grin on his face because he's one of the few that was believing in Leon.
Blew the roof off that gaff!!!!!
