John Anik cemented himself in history when he checked Joe with the "but that is not the cloth from which he is cut." GOOSEBUMPS

Jon Anik's call right before the knockout is legendary, Joe and DC were counting him out but Jon believed in strap season.

I could see this legendary kick 1,000,000 more times. So Beautiful.

I love how when he is being interviewed by Joe he goes to lift up the belt to say champion of the world but as he does he knocks Joe but even the moment says "sorry Joe" quality human being! 👌

"I was born in Jamaica in a wooden shack....look at me now" that was so deep man. So proud of Leon. He proved everybody wrong, including me.

the amount of times I’ve seen this KO on repeat, such a beautiful kick, goosebumps everytime

His corner is something else. His trainer pulling him out of the dark place and the other guy yelling at him mid round 'cross-head kick' And Jon anik comment was ON POINT

His coach said "you gotta pull this out of a fire"... He sure did.

Best headkick in UFC history. Absolutely surgical.

“He may have resigned himself to losing” *Knocks out Usman a second later*

Leon Edward not even trying for a follow up ground shots goes on to show how sure he was with the sniper head kick.

"Well come on then! What is wrong with you? YOU HAVE GOT TO PULL YOURSELf OUT OF THE FIRE!" Straight Rocky style man goosebumps

Win lose or draw this Saturday, Edwards proved he is a champion, and showed you’re never out of a fight. What a great guy, what a story. Here’s to hoping he pulls out another W.

Everything bout this fight has become so legendary 🔥🔥 From Jon Anik's "not the cloth which he is cut from" to Dave's "dont let him bully you son and "what is wrong with you Leon" to Leon's actual "Look at me now" And the headkick is not too shabby as well 😁

Is there a version without the music overlapping the commentary? This is probably the best few minutes of commentary in sport let alone this sport.

This is one of the best moments in sports history. I'm glad I got to see it live.

One of the best comeback ever. It shows heart and drive to never give up.

Most emotional first time belt in a while

Jon anik screaming “NO WAY” as the camera focuses on usman who is out cold with his eyes open has to be one of the most shocking moments in mma history

Jon Anik is a legend.

"Don't let him bully ya Rock, don't let him bully ya!" 🤣

This headkick is forever cemented as the best headkick KO in ufc history.

His story is movie worthy 💯

“look at me now” ❤

Damn. Lightning strikes twice. Can't believe I missed it, congrats champ!

I love seeing Leon's brother rush tje cage and hug him.

This is why Leon Edwards’s has the best physique in the universe

The sound of that kick was absolutely brutal

I can’t stop coming back to this fight and that moment. What a call, what a headshot. The Rocky nickname fits Leon and this fight perfectly

“DONT LET HIM BULLY YOU SON!” 🤣

From the "Stop feeling sorry for your fucking self" to the "but that is not the cloth from which he is cut at all" this moment was mindblowing.

Top 3 KO's of all time for sure!

Everybody needs a mentor and motivator like Dave Lovell in their life. Greatest moment of all time, in any sport.

Best head kick ever .

His coach really bring him into the game.😮 Having a prople who believes in you can bring a 0 morale - 100.

At this point it's gotta be the most watched/ uploaded ufc knockout in history.

I just love how he started celebrating and walking away well before Herb even got there like "yeah he's out for sure". Most fighters would still pounce and hammer as they're trained to do.

you gotta understand how huge this moment is, he was losing the entire fight and knocked out the p4p best fighter in the world in the final round

Imagining placing a bet for Leon KO right when the 5th rd started 😂😂

So happy for Leon Edwards, such a humble, respectful guy, what a stunning KO! The journey Leon had to get a title shot + the way he won, legendary 👏👏👏🦵

LOOK AT HIM NOW!!! TRULY INSPIRATIONAL STUFF

I will never ever forget this fight. It was 6am in the morning in Europe and Edwards had a great first round, but got outclassed by Usman the rest of the fight until this fcking Headkick... To this day, I never watched something with a suprise level like that again

This happend at about 1215AM on my 37th Birthday. (Aug. 21st/22) Thank you for the birthday present Leon! One of the greatest moments in UFC history. What a walk-off homerun shot!

Interesting to see how Usman bounces back from that devastating KO loss to Leon in this rematch. I feel like once Leon fails to pull off another finish, Usman's most likely gonna win the fight by decision and regain the title.

Still remember watching this and I’ll never forget how everyone in the studio yelled at the same as Joe anik and dc. Phenomenal come back story. Then playing rockys theme as he exits was icing on the cake.

Jeff Molina has the best head movement

LETS GO LEON

I knew Leon would win by head kick in london !!!!!!😮

And that's why he has the most aesthetic physique in the galaxy

Sweet sleep!😅 Congratulations, champion!💪💥

One of the greatest moments in UFC history! Anik calling it perfectly just insane!

Thank you for putting the highlight at the start of the video! 💪

Tony hinchcliffe in the background celebrating when you see commentary’s reaction, he must like Leon😂

Who’s here after Gaithje knocked Porier with the same kick

The same technique used by gaetje to porier. So effective

As soon as Edwards faints a left low kick and Usman has no reaction to it, he instantly knows that the belt is right there for the taking. And camoflages the left kick with a nice jab to bait Usman out to dip his head and BOOM , blasts that left kick.

I really don’t understand how people count him out so quick against Colby. He made an insane comeback in a fight he was losing by kicking one of the most dominant champions in history so hard, he had a thousand yard stare in his eyes. Then after that, comes back and dominates in the rematch to prove he’s the better fighter. It’s understandable that Colby is a scary matchup for any welterweight, but Leon has been looking absolutely spectacular since he’s joined the UFC. I don’t think the Colby fight is as bad of a matchup as people think. Leon’s definitely a better striker, his work in the clinch is very methodical and well thought out, and on top of that, his defensive wrestling had only been getter better and better. Colby doesn’t even deserve a title shot in the first place, but either way it’ll be a pretty even fight..

This was the best holy shit moments ever until Max Holloway dropped Gaethje

This is why Leon edwards has the most athletic physique

LOOK AT ME NOW!

This was like a fighting scene in a movie the last second and wins incredible moment one of the best ufc finishes I’ve seen I mean come on Leon was losing the whole fight and he connects with a good head kick to end it

4:07 Gotta love Trevor Whitman. His champion just got knocked out for the first time, but he's loving seeing Leon have his moment.

see? Anik saying that is a ‘dejected’ version and BOOM!!! headkick!!!

its also amazing how Usman is standing around as if hes not still knocked out, all he remembers is waking up in the ambulance, bros essentially sleep walking

Defending a fighter down 3.8 - 1 rounds with a minute to go is legendary

Greatest knockout come back in ufc history 🎉🎉🎉

This is the greatest moment in UFC history imo

I had a long day & I was laying in bed watching this fight. I fell asleep during the 2nd round. I can only imagine how it must’ve been witnessing this live

He does this all the time in training. His teammates know him best. Which is why he’s called Rocky.

tony screaming in the top left behind joes reactions lmao

everytime i see this i get goosebumps!

Salt Lake City got a HELL of a moment. You just never know how a fight will play out. I'm sure they thought it was going to a decision. Imagine the person with tickets that at the last minute stayed home, or left the fight early.

“Sorry Joe” little moment but classy as hell

That kick must have done some serious damage. I bet Usman was feeling that for a long time.

Much respect to these men 💯👊🏾

Joe giving credit to Jon cemented it. Greatest ufc call ever.

That corner speech it’s as important as the KO

I remember being in the LR with my dad and cousins. Soon as usman fell my cousin literally ran out the living room in disbelief. My jaw was on the floor

Herb Dean said “ oh sh*t ! 🏃🏾‍♂️“

I love watching dc and joe durring kos.

Leon a welterweight legend!!

Best moment in UFC history.

Can UFC turn the music up so I can hear it more

KOs with no follow up are thankfully rare, and I'm saying thankfully because these strikes inflict some serious brain damage, but damit are they so much more satisfying than TKOs.

Seeing Leon’s movement from the 2nd to 3rd fight really does show how bad elevation can fuck fighters up. The ufc should never do events at places with high elevation again

He follows it with “a dejected…” then the head kick landed.

Fuck me that kick never gets old.

i still remember the rush of seeing Usman fall to the ground. it felt like a dream.

Joe's eyes are going to Pop out.... Love never Fails 💖

LOOK AT ME NOW! GAMES OVER! WELL SAID. When No One Believed In Him Leon Edwards Delivered A Kick Of Perfection!!!!!!!

Insane how Leon recently said he went in defensive minded in fight 1. He lulled Kamaru to feel comfortable and then once the spell was casted Bam! Head shot. D**d!

I regret not watching the rest of round 5 because leon looking like he really gave up and just waiting for the clock to run out, and then 2 minutes later I saw comments and posts that leon koed usman, and went back to see leon doing that billi strut

Just a wide mouth open moment, it was so crazy to see!

That is not the cloth from which he is cut…….and folds him up in a lounge chair LIGHTS OUT! And Usman couldn’t except it then walks by him and not even shakes his hand. Best KO I have seen. Checkmate upkick.

As an Englishman - this is my favourite knockout of all time

You could see the feints in his leg, and his hands. Then he shows him the jab, and then kicks his head.

3:38 Lmao the guy with crutches just standing up

Perfectly timed comment from John Anik “that is not the cloth from which he is cut” - BOOM headshot dead

as someone from the uk, watching this live didnt feel real.

By zooming in so much in the recording of the fight, fans lose the complete movements they make, they should record the camera a little further away. You can't see the leg movements if they zoom in so much.
