My friend. Usman is not underestimating Leon, nor did he in the second fight. He got caught after a pretty dominant fight. Usman is not one to underestimate an opponent. You don't get to 20-2, with a 19 fight win streak, whilst champion, after lapping the top of the division by underestimating your competition. Usman is confident in his own abilities, as he should be and as he needs to be. He gave Leon every bit of respect. Another thing, every fighter talks about how they were ill or injured going into a fight, and while a lot of the time it is true, injuries are unavoidable in the sport especially leading up to a fight, they are still excuses when you throw them out after a loss. Kamaru hasn't said a word. He admits he had a bad night and Leon got him fair and square but he's gone back and is coming back better. No complaints, no excuses, just dues paid and straight to business. What more do you want?

@@badm.d if you didn’t see the fight, it was actually embarrassing. He played possum is his best way to explain it because dude looked dazed and confused getting yelled at by his cornermen like a little kid. He won the fight with that well timed kick on an opponent who got complacent. Let’s see what he does to an opponent ready to go all 25 mins. That “game plan” won’t work twice. May the best man win.

It's crazy cuz last time Kamaru wanted the Canelo fight they were both the P4P kinds but now they've both lost and new P4P kinds in the 140lbs division took over in each sport

[@fromheaventoearth5779]

Boxing enthusiast here. Canelo does not campaign at 140 lbs. Also, he is the biggest draw but to call him the goat in any sense is inflammatory. In fact, he has been ignoring taking the best fights for so long, that he has to now fight in Mexico because networks will lose money behind the opponents he's been choosing most recently in his career.

[@yelo30]

@@fromheaventoearth5779 thank u for sayin this because majority of stans don’t understand that

[@sharkyjena]

He cleaned out the 168lb and became undisputed. There were some fighters he could’ve fought but to be fair he beat all the champions. He then moved up and fought a top p4p fighter in Bivol and lost. No shame in that. He’ll fight Ryder and then his next fight would have to be a big one. Either a rematch with Bivol at 175 or , Benavidez at 168 assuming he gets past Plant.

Lol Edwards won 1 of 8 rounds. Landed a head kick because Trevor told Usman to stand a strike... "Go for the knockout".

[@alfredarchbold9768]

Let Kamaru stand and strike and then you give him the head kick , lol just messing around bro , if you check Leon has done this same kick multiple times different fight , go to Henry Sejudo KZbin , he breaks down their fights , Usman just have that bad habit of ducking fist and exposing his head , being uncovered , Leon has always been in MMA so he is ready on his fight , very technical, Kamaru progressively Learned to strike , when he fights he push you on the fence , wrestler vs striker

[@badm.d]

Its a striking strategy. You lose if you get knocked out and yo uare the better fighter if you win the fight. Just accept it. I think izzy has won about 12 rounds against perreira now.
