It Was Always The Head Kick For Leon

UFC Welterweight champion Leon Edwards is known for having an elite striking ability. Edwards uses a southpaw stance and has a great setup for his left head kick. Although he has explained his setup publicly before, it is still difficult for his opponents to stop. Before his title fight with Kamaru Usman at UFC 278, his coaches watched film of Usman's previous opponents to see how to implement the head kick which would later go down in UFC history as one of the more shocking knockouts. #ufc #leonedwards #shorts

How can people have the audacity to call that Headkick a Fluke when Leon’s corner legit called for it he said jab Crosskick and they were practicing it before their fight in training camp

[diomond]

Leon will get back to his feet and become champion again

The impact on that kick ! Did they add to it ? Damn that shit cracked

That head kick changed Usman's career forever.

Usmans story is so fascinating, especially during his tenure as champion. There was a time when not one of us thought he could lose in welterweight, because Usman was just so dominant in his performances and physically speaking just the way he looked he’s an absolute athletic specimen compared to literally everybody within his division at the time.

Its hilarious to think of all the high kicks he’s blocked over the years, (as seen in this clip) THE ONE TIME he tries to slip the punch, instead of eat the left hand and block the headkick is the ONE time he’s knocked out. And not just knocked out, knocked out cold, headshot dead. Absolutely sensational end to his story and the beginning of Leon’s.

Beautiful game planning. Leon already does that combo and usman has been caught with it

[teeeejaay]

Leon is the might be the pound for pound number 1 right now . He is the most underrated fighter rn

[MatthewLivingood]

The way that fight ended was just awesome, leons corner yelling at him telling him to "stop feeling sorry for himself" and to "stop letting him bully you"to come in and land that head kick. Flawless 😂

I dont understand why people find him boring. For those who understand the game well, he's actually a great fightet to watch, very skilled and technical.
