Idk leon couldve beaten Magny or Chiesa. Maybe they didnt want to set a precedent.

This dude needs to pipe down and listen to his employer. He’s no Khamzat

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Cue the Khamzat supporters calling this weak or ducking somehow, like half of the retarded comments in the article and one douche here already

 

[Call-of-Cthulhu]

Leon is very good; he has been pushed aside and overlooked, which is blatantly unfair.

If Dana White were a good man, a fair man, and a true aficionado for the sport, he would demand that Masvidal face his comeuppance with Edwards.

Not sure if it's racism, or simply preferential treatment, but Jorge Masvidal needs to have his nose rubbed in his potty ... and face the consequences of his actions ... with a Leon Edwards showdown.

 

[Jackonfire]

Unfortunately for him, he's not one of Dana's pets.

 

[ChristianZilla]

I don't really like the Khamzat match up for Leon. I'm surprised the UFC hasn't pressed a Leon v Masvidal match. That seems like the better fight to make. Allow Khamzat to fight his way up a little. He hasn't beat anyone worth getting a shot at #3.

True. Leon actually has some ranked wins.

Lol Dana knows this dude is probably only fighting once a year. Wants to feed him to his new goldenboy

 

[Sticko]

Khamzat can kind of get away with double booking because he fights in 2 weight classes
He's also yet to actually do a double booking successfully as the anticipated matchup with Demian Maia fizzled

 

[Sweater of AV]

Classic Uncle Goof to screw over a very good fighter that isn't one of his babies.

So far he's averaging 2 fights a year. A little over 6 years and 12 fights. He's a decision machine as well so yeah Dana clearly doesn't care for him.

 

[Kono dio da!]

Fuck dana white bruh. He'll look so foolish if khamzat gasses and gets boxed up for 5 rounds... (keyword:IF)

How is Leon getting screwed over? Isn't fighting an *unranked, unproven fighter supposed to be an easy payday and a TS coming off it? Arguments like yours are what makes people think the fight between Leon and Khamzat is justified.

The fuck are you going on about? Leon wanted to fight in the meantime and wasn't allowed. And lol at thinking he's guaranteed a title shot with a win. You must be new.
