News Leon Edwards calls out Masvidal for fight in November / December

[JB228]

Masvidal knocks this dude out easily. Diaz almost got the job done, what do you think Jorge does to him? Leon will try to wrestle and get stuffed on the takedown attempts and battered on the feet.

You’re a clown if you think otherwise.

You’re a funny guy.

Leon — two steps forward, one step back

Crawling up a precarious ridgeline, inching his way towards a Title Fight — with a mile to go

Leon's striking is more technical and more well rounded then masvidal. He also has a better ground game and is the mich bigger and faster fighter. You're delusional

 

[BlackMessiah]

Hopefully Leon avenges that backstage nonsense

 

[Oscar Madison]

A scrappy Masvidal has a greater likelihood of catching Leon earlier than Diaz did —

but will it be enough to keep Leon from out-pointing Jorge?

That’s what will make it a fun match up. imho

 

[Goldentrophy]

Watch masvidal duck and everyone here will somehow blame Edwards

Also the whole "He should rematch Belal" folks around here

 

[KBE6EKCTAH_CCP]

Let that thug face the man he sucker punched on a television set. But he will make excuses again and the 85ers here will point out that Leon got punched by Nate.

LOL @ Leon being more well rounded than Masvidal… please stop watching MMA.

They’re both clean strikers but Masvidals level of grappling is light years ahead of Leon’s British Tier mediocrity.


Positional awareness, Submission defense, wrestling, etc Mas is on another level… clearly you’ve never trained.

I thought WB and I thought Conor vs Dustin 2 would be an execution display by WB/Conor respectively. I can never be shocked with the outcome of fights anymore barring Nunes and Valentina.

He's been called out by Burms who is a legitimate contender and is ducking him. Instead he wants an easy fight with an old former LW while it's a gift he just had in his last fight.

 

[Ald0]

This should be the fight to make next for sure

 

[Goldentrophy]

It'll be interesting if this fight does take place because who will Gilbert burns face next? Chiesa if he beats Vicente? but if Vicente beats Chiesa we all know Burns and Luque will not fight each other.

As much I am a fan of Nate, the damage he did was near the end of the fight. While Leon was fresh, Nate barely landed. Masvidal doesn't have a spectacular gas tank, especially not after being wrestlefucked for 3-4 rounds.

Edwards has a similar wrestling pedigree to Usman and Covington and shouldn't have much difficulty taking Masvidal down and wearing him out.

You'd have to be a "clown" to think otherwise.

Masvidal is a top 15 fighter that has Askren's promotional skills and Nate's willingness to fight him to thank for his current popularity.

Are u trolling???

 

[User4908]

Are u trolling???

Far from it. No offense but you obviously don’t know a lick about grappling.

 

[RemyR]

Wouldn’t mind seeing this fight if they’re. Or giving Leon the title shot

Stay off the meth lol

 

[User4908]

Stay off the meth lol

Lol please pay for a decent BJJ lesson.

Anyone who thinks Edwards has better grappling than Masvidal needs to be purged from this sport.

 

[Natural Order]

Jorge Masvidal most certainly owes Leon a real date in the Octagon.

As a huge Masvidal fan, and even a defender of his quick hands in their previous confrontation, he still owes him a real scrap.
