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 🍻

That speech will be in my mind forever.. thanks Leon for inspiring alot of us

Goosebumps every damn time. LOOK AT ME NOW!

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 really hope he wins the next one as well. Will solidify him. Lots of people think it was a fluke.

Leon is such a humble man and he came literally from the slums, nobody deserves it more than him

Pound for pound head shot dead Still giving me chills

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

So proud of him, I couldn't stop screaming when he ko'd Usman.. Well done Rocky!

"Yep" - Leon Edwards

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

One of the best post fight speeches in history. Possibly only tied with McGregor’s double champ apology. What else is there? I’m definitely missing someone’s

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

Head shot dead gives me goosebumps every time I watch this. LOOK AT ME NOW

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

That's a masterpiece of an interview!!!

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.

Leon is such a humble dude. Rooting for him in the trilogy.

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.

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

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.

"Pound 4 pound headshot dead" haha yes Leon

I’ve watched this moment about 3 million times now….. and I’ll continue to watch it everytime I see it come up anyway ❤❤❤❤ WHAT A MOMENT. LEON DONE EVERYONE PROUD 🇬🇧 🇯🇲

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.

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.

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

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

The after speech gives goosebumps

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

Nick's fishing for tears haha

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

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 👊

Man this gives me chills, that post fight speech and the pure character of Leon “Rocky” Edwards. What a top bloke.

Watching this while on the pan, great video so far lads… Exhilarating!

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

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

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! 👊🏼

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

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

Leon such a humble down to earth guy

No one deserves it more than leon. True champion

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

GOOSEBUMPS! That post fight interview is iconic

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

Just pure emotion in that post fight. Class!

Greatest finish & post fight interview of all time

best ufc knockout ever

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

Love this man! Proper legend!

Leon's story is so powerful🔥

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

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

He put Usman on stand-by mode

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

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

the way leon hugged the belt wit rocky tune background wow

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

*HEADSHOT. BANG. DONE*

This is great! Love Nick and Leon!!

This man will win the trilogy. Everything about the rematch was in usmans favor and he took a massive career changing knockout loss at 35 years old at 170. Now in the trilogy usman will not be able to fight the same based on his style. He won’t be fighting at crazy elevation. He was the only fighter on the card of ufc 278 that didn’t have cardio issues because he trains with team elevation. He also loses his mental advantage as well. He hopefully won’t be able to cheat multiple time during the fight with cage grabs and glove grabs. And he’s coming off another hand surgery. Leon Edwards will win the trilogy and remain the champion of the world.

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

Goosebumps every time watching this💯🔥

The knockout always puts a smile on my face 😁 pfp headshot dead that’s it

Leon... It gave us all goose bumps 😮😮

He was overlooked for years look at him now AN STILL 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇

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.

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

Real goosebumps

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

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

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

BT sport cover UFC like no other, this is incredible

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

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 go to the bells done!! Legendary..

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

The CEO of EPO shall return!

Still gives me the tingles seeing that head kick 😍

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.

One of my favourite fighters.. has been for a long time!

I love this content, great video!

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

One of the most loveable human beings alive. ❤

Really rooting for leon to win this one as well.

10:55 night night. To this day still gives me goosebumps.

What a wonderful human
