What a weird ass, obviously one-sided matchup. Leech isn’t the biggest welterweight, but he’s pretty ******* massive, and has insane hand-power. This isn’t a fight, this is a funeral.

That's one of the best comeback KOs of all time!
I think now we'll see Leon fight with some flair rather than be gunshy most of the time. To add on to that, Edwards vs Usman 3 is happening in the UK I'm assuming, which will make it electric.
Decent card overall, glad to see Costa win again but what a fight!

Still great to see and I'm glad it's in the books though. Have to give Edwards props for never giving in and backing himself when all looked lost.

Like Leon didn't capalize on some mistakes that Usman did.

was just thinking that the re-match would be somewhere in England and UFC selling out Wembley would be insane.
need to matchup Paddy with like Jared Gordon or Solecki
Sucks for Chimaev will likely have to wait
