Can we talk about Leon switching stances the whole fight? Throwing Colby off with that. He was cutting Colby off on the cage constantly keeping pressure. Sticking his leg with kicks the whole fight forcing Colby to shoot for takedowns off his opposite leg. Yeah Leon didn’t get the finish but he was winning before the fight even started. Crazy strategy.

@@guyontheinternet6034 Brother, he beat the pound for pound best fighter in the UFC, and his last win against Usman was all down to his fight IQ. He has improved soo much these last few fights. He made one or two errors today, but he could afford to make them. And it was pretty much just to dominate, humiliate and piss on Colby. Beat him at his own game. The man is one of the calmest individuals in the ring these days.

Wah wah. Leon's dad got what was coming to him, look him up, he was an evil piece of crap that was a gang leader in Jamaica that did a lot of bad things which includes sex trafficking. Leon himself was following in his father's footsteps and was a thug before getting his life changed.

"He didnt play for 2 years" SO WHY DID HE GET A TITLESHOT?? XD 4 out of 7 of his last fights were title shots. 0 Wins against anyone from the roster the past 4 years, inactive for 2 years, yet gets the Titleshot over multiple names in his division that had 2 Digits winstreak (Belal, Gilbert etc), they were fighting without camps, fighting whilst injured, took all the challenges UFC threw at them to leave no excuse. Embarrassing performance with all the privilege he keeps getting and this was exposed tonight! Leon even outwrestled him, took him down, and was about to win by Submission many times.

I am truly disappointed in this sport. I am disgusted. A fan for years, only to find out that fools like Awakenbeerus can rig these matches and sell them to people for money. Sports are truly destroyed, and we need to stop this.

if you didn’t know Leon Edwards is an incredibly skilled champion and the skill gap between him and Colby is exponential. Leon worked his ass off to get to where he is, and for you to write off this fight as rigged makes me “disgusted”

After the first round I left with my friends to go to the bar because I saw Colby had nothing for Leon and it was over. Two years off for Colby, then coming right back to a title fight was dumb. If you are 33 you can’t sit out for 2 years.

What a casual fan attitude towards MMA. I mean, you could have said the same thing about Leon vs. Usman 1 no? Leon looked like he had nothing for Usman, and the rest is history...

Its the Dana White privilege that got him the title shot in the first place thats the problem. He never deserved this fight. The only title shot he earned was the first one in 2019. These last two he got gifted because of his big mouth. Maybe now he'll be made to fight a contender that's not on the verge of retirement.

Leon is showing that he's a well-rounded fighter and not just adept at the stand-up. He took Usman down and now was willing to exchange with Colby in the wrestling. You have to give him kudos for that on such a big stage with all the risks involved.

I was a pretty big Colby fan. Im not big on the trash talk. I just liked his cage presence. But im less of a fan today. He had the chance after the fight to say he crossed the line with bringing up his dad. But he doubled down. I just cant get down with that trash.
