Bro he’s much more for confident. Dude was never boring, he never had a boring personality. Dude jus seems really grounded and chill, he’s not even bad at trash talk and comebacks, but he’s jus more grounded.

Everyone wants to talk about “lucky shot this, lucky shot that” but nobody wants to talk about Leon’s 10 win streak. He didn’t get to where he’s at by accident. I think Leon is just the better fighter at this point. I think he’ll be able to keep up in the grappling and out strike Kamaru and win by decision.

The lucky shot they were drilling in the changing room before the fight, the lucky shot his corner called for seconds before it landed, nothing lucky about it.
