Leon being so soft-spoken & underrated for years just makes the moment (and watchback) that much more special/legendary. His personality has been shining ever since 🍻

Still have so many questions.. like how hard he hit his head on the canvas when he took usman down.. how angry he must have felt after Herb put him back after a fence grab while Usman got away with it a few seconds before.. The fact that he stayed so patience is unreal.. even after Usman following him and trying to get under his skin after rounds. I watched this fight back so many times..wish could get that live feeling back. Good luck Rock march 18!

I’ll never forget the feeling of watching this live. The combo was there all night and he landed it perfectly.

Every single time I watch that end speech I get tears in my eyes man.

He had one of the greatest post fight interviews of all time

Leon definitely gave us one of the greatest post fight interviews. “Pound for pound, head shot dead done”

People are sleeping on Leon in the rematch, we have no idea how Kamaru is gonna come back after that knockout. Getting flatline koed at 35 years old isn’t good for any fighter.

This has to be one of the best comebacks in combat history Leon Edwards can write or sell his life story and make a movie when he retires of course.

Epic battle between two unique fighters. The one who talks like he's telling bonfire scary stories all the time vs the one who talks all the time like his voice is trembling of fear for no reason.

The moment of him crying to his mom gets me emotional. Long road, hard work and constant hurdles and to do what he did.. man, we all want that in our lives.

More than a Champion. What a Inspirational Man. Honor for Mum and Dad. The Best back Story and the realist emotionally Moving Victory speech in the history of MMA.

Look at how happy he gets when he sees the kick again “what a shot”, hes smiling through the whole interview tbh

Such a genuine and humble guy. So refreshing to see in ufc

I still remember i was about to turn of the TV and then it came, headshot bang ! So happy for him, one of the greatest knockouts ever, considering all on the line

This was an amazing interview. Every second. Especially how Leon was so honest and frank about his upbringing and what this means to him. Massive thanks to everyone, what an inspiration.

I remember meeting Leon years ago. He's a top dude. When he was on that winning streak at about 7 or 8 matches he was more or less on the longest winning streak in the division and nobody in the states gave him the time of day as he wasn't controversial, he's a nice dude. When he eventually got the shot and won, people still discredited him and said fluke. I really want him to win to shut them up. Go ROCKY

It was just like a movie!!!i get goosebumps every time!!!!

Loved this! Can tell he’s such a genuine bloke aswell! “LOOK AT ME NOWWW” 👊🏻

Well done mum for not taking a pointless jab! Let’s go champ! My jaw dropped when that kick landed.

Lol that thumbnail. The sheer joy as he relives knocking Usman tf out 😂

Leon Edwards is the definition of a mixed martial artists, such well rounded skill set. At the top were he deserves to be.

The after speech gives goosebumps

Damn. My tear ducts slipping during the discussions about his dad

Nick's fishing for tears haha

Leon’s post fight interview gives me goosebumps every time. Hearing that crack in his voice and the outpouring of emotion is as real as it gets! 👊🏼

My favorite moment of the year.. and this has nothing to do with Usman but everything to do with Edwards.. so happy for the man 👊

GOOSEBUMPS! That post fight interview is iconic

I never knew he did the headshop thing at the start. Crazy. Like he’s psychic without knowing it.

It feels good to see someone from my hometown on top of the world, Leon is an inspiration and a great role model💯

No one deserves it more than leon. True champion

Thanks Leon. It's a victory for everyone who has been pushed down, stepped on, told they couldn't do it. Your victory will forever keep me going.

Absolutely one of the most shocking and unforgettable moments in UFC history. I'll never forget crumbling to the floor of my living room and burying my face in my hands, not from grief, not from glee, but from shock. It was truly out of nowhere and will stand forever as a defining moment of this era of mma.

What a moment for Leon this was. Never get tired ot reliving it. Hoping he also wins the rematch.

Probably the most unexpected and historic knockouts in UFC history🎉.

This just made me love leon even more! What a guy

Absolutely positively the greatest post fight speech for me. Nothing ever came close, nothing ever will

Was seriously happy to hear that Leon won! His reaction “what a shot” mans deserves it.

I love this man and his story. He is really Rocky Balboa with this fantastic win. Nobody will take this away from him. He made history. Congratulations Sir

Leon's story is so powerful🔥

Leon such a humble down to earth guy

Leon is such a good dude and seems like a really authentic person, and I’m so glad that it went down like this. I wish he had the ability to make Usman wait and win a fight before a rematch, but I have to admit that Usman deserves an instant rematch if anybody does.

One of the greatest KO’s in combat sports history

Greatest finish & post fight interview of all time

best ufc knockout ever

This man is living legend...support from Croatia 🙏

I've watched UFC for roughly 6 years now.. This is my number one moment I've witnessed. The fight looked like it was over, then BANG! HEADSHOT! The post fight speech still makes me emotional watching it! Love to see Leon do it again

The greatest mma knockout ever for me. Especially with the way the fight was going and to win a world title like that.then the post fight interview

F***ing class! What a story, what a journey!! Really hope he wins the rematch. Certainly inspired me!👏

Love this man! Proper legend!

Just pure emotion in that post fight. Class!

Have to comment again just watching it again with Leon watching it so emotional 🔥🔥🔥

My biggest regret of 2022 was having to see this knockout on replay, was watching the entire fight and of course the second i look down to check my phone i hear Joe and Daniel get excited.

I fell off my couch when I saw that kick like unbelievable man congrats to him he truly deserved this 1...💯💯💯

BT sport cover UFC like no other, this is incredible

Love this. His man in his corner tho. That was epic. This is what we love. Those little moments make the narrative. Respect Leon

What a gent of man!! Respect this reflect ion 💯

Great idea for a video Leon is a legend

This is great Leon winning the title is one of the greatest moments I’ve ever seen watching mma his story, the comeback in the 5th after his coach fired him up, the post fight interview,phone call with his family amazing his hard work paid dividends

The CEO of EPO shall return!

Leon... It gave us all goose bumps 😮😮

HEAD SHOT BANG DONE - one of the smoothest Octagon lines ever

Love this guy.. I will never forget watching him at UFC London and the ‘fans’ alllll wanted Gunnar Nelson to win it was insane.. now he’s champ and headlining a UFC event in London. What a guy. So good to watch this back.. in my memory I remember him getting beaten up for 24 mins.. I forgot he had crazy crazy fatigue.. changes my mind a bit on the rematch

Man was so happy for Edwards

Goosebumps every time watching this💯🔥

I’ve been watching the UFC since Silva V Sonnen 2012 and that knockout was by far my favourite moment

Great content, this was a great fight to watch, knowing Leon needed a stoppage in the 5th then he got it in spectacular fashion! Great to hear his thoughts.

Man i still have a huge smile on my face everytime i see this wow emotions man 👊

A true master of the art. Hopefully, he gets to do the same again !

That’s crazy he did the gun to his head before the fight even started

the way leon hugged the belt wit rocky tune background wow

This man is a goat win or lose I’ll always support him he’s a different breed

WHAT A MOMENT UNFORGETTABLE WELL DONE SON WELL DONE 🙆🏼‍♂️

This is great! Love Nick and Leon!!

*HEADSHOT. BANG. DONE*

Watched this live on a carvan Park in Devon on my summer holiday and woke up the whole carvan park at 5:30 in the morning after that head kick. Amazing leon

I remember seeing one of these videos of Darren Till reacting to his fight with Gastelum. I like these videos, I hope BT keeps doing them.

“Rocky may have resided to a moral victory of losing a decision” “THAT IS NOT THE CLOTH FROM WHICH HE IS CUT”

I love this content, great video!

Im really glad the salt lake crowd gave Leon the credit he deserved.

Can't wait to see Marty Juiceman reunited with his son Street Judas in the shadow realm again

'look at me now' will always stick with me for some reason feel so happy for him even tho i dont know him

I remember Rocky's winning kick every time i pass by his portrait in Erdington, love it.

Leon Edwards is really intelligent. That's what I got from this

One of the most loveable human beings alive. ❤
