Leon Edwards has always been a fighter with no substance

[Ivancho]

I never liked this dude he’s boring as shit, the way he fights, and he brings the same energy as an unplugged lamp.

 

[alchemy]

Edwards is such a letdown. Always considered him talented, but his lethargy has prevailed again. It's almost like he's falling asleep during his fights. I don't know what's wrong with him.

Lolon isn't the champion of Britain

 

[Portland8242]

For a pure striker he's just complete shit in the pocket. No threatening counters, garbage 1-2, same predictable garbage. Not everyone's gonna fight you at distance buddy.

 

[J'Ghasta]

Someone called him an NPC fighter in another thread and I agree with them

 

[frederick]

Is he the biggest fraud in recent memory?

 

[fujitsugroundnpound]

Same formula MVP, stand far away and put all power into a punch, get ragdolled, repeat

If Nate Diaz didn't point at him like a fucking retard when he had Leon on queer street, then we wouldn't have ever had to deal with the charade of Edwards being a champion. He picked the bones of a washed Usman and even then he looked like shit against a clearly washed Usman and Colby

 

[forsh]

By the third round his eyes looked like he had nothing more to give. How many significant strikes did he have in round 2? Zero.

when you came to no-charisma and no-personality contest and ur first opponent is lion eggwards:

It's crazy because he has some of the best elbows and knees when exiting the clinch I've ever seen, yet he never forces himself into those positions

 

[fujitsugroundnpound]

Lameon gave up, flailing around like a teacher grappled by a big schoolboy

 

[xhaydenx]

He's a DNB that landed one good kick one time and made the absolute most out of it lol.

 

[Portland8242]

Yeah but this is two fights now where he's gotten beaten in boxing range. He's got the feet, he's got the speed, and clearly has the technique, but some guys just don't have the eyes to find those killshots in the danger zone.

JDM would have KTFO'd him tonight, I was also predicting him to beat Leon too when they were scheduled.

 

[MeatGrinder]

I honestly think he's just sawed off. Like a straight up sawed off human.

So literally nothing like MVP then

As soon as he wasn't kneeing the body during the clinch tonight I knew it would be over. No reason a shorter opponent should be out winning that position when Leon's got his level of muay thai. Just no offence and didn't punish Brady for any mistakes.

 

[Söze Aldo]

The Diaz's are pure showmen. Instead of rushing in for the finish, point and walk away.

 

[RockyLockridge]

I have him flagged as trash since this moment.
