UFC 278 On ESPN+ PPV [8/20] “Summer Of Sequels” (Kamaru Usman/Leon Edwards II)

[ahomeplateslugger]

Man what a crazy ending. Usman should’ve just pressure him to the cage and wrestle him until the fight ended. Hopefully Usman’s chin doesn’t go to shyt after that. Sometimes a fighter doesn’t recover from nasty knockouts.

Trilogy in January

As long as Colby doesn't get that belt

I would've never thought that after getting out of that rear naked choke attempt in round one that the fight would end like that. Best pound for pound fighter and one swift kick to the jaw done ended it all. And looking at the replays they keep going, was definitely setup nicely with him turn his head towards that side and closer to the kick.

How dudes saying Usman should have coasted when people swear they hate that shyt

I stg I hate that shyt but damn breh. Hump his leg and ride that shyt out

"Belt belongs to nobody, belt belongs to nobody"

Leon's gotta work on his post fight interviews, it's your belt buddy

HE WAS TALKING ABOUT
THE IMAGINARY POUND FOR POUND #1 BELT.

So now Usman is overrated. Gotta love hot takes

i been consistent since woodley had a mental breakdown to give him the belt in the first place

 

[The G.O.D II]

Jorge worthless probably coming out the woodwork now too

 

[Knockout_LR_Freshmart]

The third fight is definitely up for grabs, but after all the obstacles and doubt Leon had to go through on his way up it's nice to see.

Leon's key to victory is to keep it long (pause).
He needs to hit Kamaru with long shots..teeps...jabs..crosses and kicks. Can't afford to engage with Kamaru.

Usman shouldn't fall in love with his striking. His best path to victory is control. Whether up against the cage or on the mat, he just has to control Leon for long periods through the fight.

I think Kamaru will try to make it look like the Woodley fight.

Former champ got complacement and got slept.

Hopefully they don't write Usman off after this loss. You know how MMA fans like to re-write mma history.

 

[Lurk Angle]

covington has no pop, you can get away with that against him

Yup but covington rocked him that same way

 

[8====D]

One head kick saved this shytty ass card.

I know breh's chin might be cracked after that

That's life folks never give up until it's over, now stop reading them threads on how to get girls and go talk to that girl at Walmart

I'm motivated

Bout to shoot my shot at the chick at the late nite window at the gas station
