[@dnam727]

Context for non-mma fans: Jorge Masvidal sucker punched Leon back stage in his hometown and cut him. Jorge then gained fame over the incident by saying he served Leon a "3 piece and a soda." Since then, Jorge continuously avoided Leon for three years, saying he's a bum and undeserving of a fight. Leon ended up beating all the odds (injuries, embarrassment, cancelled fights) and knocked out the #1 pound for pound champion in Kamaru Usman. Now Jorge is coming out talking trash again. Makes perfect sense why Leon doesn't like him.

[@lakersin556]

Thanks for the history lesson, I'm a casual. 👍

[@nah9538]

Jorge is the biggest man child ever

[@oleg3913]

And Jorge is on a 3 fight losing streak now too

[@droppa57kgx24]

Lol right and Jorge thought he was too big time fighting for fake BMF belts and getting ppv points the whole time but look at how the world turns things around.

[@vsingh8078]

Nope, (As much respect as Leon deserves), Leon didn't act humble and interrupted Masvidals post Darren Till fight interview, got cocky with him out of nowhere, Masvidal didn't take that, walked up to him and threw some punches. That scenario would not have happened if Leon just walked by and let Masvidal have his interview. Leon exchanged first looks and words!!

Yo! that KO he got on Usman was insane. Down 3 rounds, losing the 5th going to a 49-46 decision most likely. And he lands one of the biggest headkicks of all time against the greatest pound for pound fighter at the time. Glad I got to watch it live, the roof exploded when it happened.
