Leon's coach makes me happy our boy has a solid team around him. The pep talk and motivation he gave Leon in his corner was just what he needed to secure that KO in the last fight against Usman. Hope he doesn't need it this time around but I'm rooting for him 🙏

He will probably just end up trying to clinch Leon against the fence and foot stomp him this whole fight

[@dootpooter4740]

@@jc9291 That foot stomping vs Masvidal proved to me that Usman feared Masvidal. It's interesting how he overcame the fear and KO'd Masvidal in the next fight. I'm wondering if Usman comes back with that same fear he had.

Usman is going back to his roots 100%. Hope Edward's continue to improve his takedown defense, and I hope he practice throwing knees and uppercuts for when Usman shoots for a takedown, he's greeted with a fist or knee to that dome🗿

Usman will try to KO Leon but will also have his dangerous take down game sharp and ready. its going to be a hard fight for Leon thats why Usman is the bookies favourite.

Leon is the most underappreciated champion even by UK

[@akritasdigenis4831]

He got a lot of recognition after he knocked Usman out, if he does it again a lot of people are going to be fans of him and they won't have any excuses anymore like they say lucky kick.

[@briannoble1022]

That's because he wss getting dominated and got lucky with just seconds left because Usman stopped moving with just seconds left in the firght for whatever reason which gave him the opening...not an impressive win!

[@itchyballsack6627]

​@Brian Noble Not an impressive win? He drilled that combo over and over in training and saw the opportunity and KO'd the P4P guy in that moment. Wipe them tears and do something with your life...

Potential welterweight fights I hope to see soon. Leon vs Belal 2 Usman vs Khamzat Colby vs Burns

[@lakebennett1274]

Both Have alot to be confident about Leon can improve his wrestling and cardio and still found a way last time. Kamaru did alot of things well was up 3-1 without dispute and has beaten him before. I don't think the knockout will play on his mind as much as the hostile territory. Nor do I think it will play as much on him physically as much as being 36 years old now will. Interesting Trilogy
