      Idk man usman not acting like most champs that's lost there belts most are focused on getting back in title contention but he is as cool and calm as ice as if that kick never happened. Going on to say he's glad it happened that he feels a sense of relief. Plus saying he'll whipped guys with or without the belt. Leon Edwards better be on his P's and Q's. I sense danger from Usman or maybe it's just me.

      He's not a particularly charismatic or outgoing guy compared to say Darren Till, who was the talk of the MMA world on his come-up. Edwards was outright ignored while fans couldn't seem to get enough of Till. In the end though it was the quiet and humble Leon Edwards who became what many hoped Darren Till would be; an undisputed UFC champion. Sadly for Till, he was never the same after getting flat-lined by Jorge Masvidal and is now out of the UFC altogether.

    From Leon and his team realizing usman dips his head after a counter and they practiced it. To henry cejudo and usmans manager aliz saying he needs to quit dippping his head while they were in the crowd. To being a underdog to the #1 one pound for pound fighter in the world who was about to tie or surpass Anderson silva (I forgot) for most title defenses or consecutive wins. To being in this fight when he lost last time to usman. To the speech from his coach in the 5th and final round being down. To at the last minute executing your gameplan KO head leg kick to a fighter who’s never been knocked out to the post fight interview with all the emotions and him talking to his mom after the fight. This might be one of the greatest moments in combat sports history maybe even sports history. Down and out by everyone to win. Very inspiring so much respect to Leon I was at the movie theaters watching this fight. It wasn’t even believable what happened.

    That kick was deadly accurate and so well timed and it had power. That’s why Usman folded up so quickly as his legs gave way bc his brain was switched off the lights were out.
    Leon Rocky Edwards is the champion and I believe that Kamaru will make lot’s of mistakes bc he’s going to be trying extra hard to win and Leon is the kind of fighter to capitalise on them. Leon has heavy hands and a big bad high kick to go with good boxing skills. He can wrestle and shouldn’t be worried about going after takedowns especially from the clinch. His TD defence is as good as anyone.
    Usman is a beast who has really gotten so much better at striking over the years since they first met and has become the complete fighter pretty much and deserves everything that has come his way but he’s been in lot’s of 5 round wars and he’s even said so himself his body has taken lots of punishment and his knees are almost shot so he only has a few more years left. It makes it so much more important to Kamaru to get the title back bc if he loses this title rematch he will find himself staring at needing to win at least two elimination fights to earn another shot. So much at stake here for Usman more so than Leon bc I think Leon has more years left in his ufc career and he’s more than capable of winning 2 elimination fights especially when Masvidal is definitely Leon’s next fight regardless of winning or losing this fight.
    Go Rocky
