Rumored Leon Edwards vs Jack Della Maddalena - UFC:London headliner - Mar 22nd

[Dreyga_King of Sherbums]

Cool casual racism

Supporting black athletes because of pride in my heritage and connection to my culture isn’t racism. Racism is about discrimination, prejudice, or treating others unfairly based on their race, and that’s not what I’m doing. I’m not putting down, insulting, or excluding athletes of other races—I respect and admire athletes from all backgrounds.

My support for black athletes comes from wanting to celebrate and uplift people who represent my community and its accomplishments, not from any animosity toward others. There’s nothing wrong with feeling a sense of pride and connection to those who share your heritage, as long as it’s done with respect for everyone else, which is exactly how I approach it.

Man as much as I like JDM.

I cannot on principal route against the black guy.

Let’s go ROCKY!!!!

My mind says Leon, my heart says Leon. I’m still going to root against him.

 

[VinceArch]

Head says JDM by TKO. Heart says Leon by UD.

 

[HatKick]

Leon by decision. He has a good style to deal with an aggressive striker like JDM. And he will (hopefully) be very motivated to redeem himself.

 

[SamuraiBro]

JDM will make this look easy.

 

[Tweak896]

Rooting for JDM. Leon could do his usual boring outside point fight approach. Honestly Leon might be checked out after losing belt. I noticed most champs that lose belts lose future fights. We'll see if Leon has any fire left because JDM has momentum.

 

[TCE]

Rocky will probably shit the bed again but my vote is him to win.

 

[svmr_db]

@BoxerMaurits Kevin has a bad track record overall, I'd call this a rumor until a better source backs it up.

 

[CC27]

fun fight but still dont get why JDM isnt fighting in Aus which needs another fight. Could have easily done Leon vs Buckley and JDM vs Brady in Aus giving each card something.

But with this fight I guess its all but certain Usman/Buckley gets made and Garry sits till summer and Brady is odd man out who has to wait or fight someone below him unless Garry is convinced to fight in spring and fight Brady.

 

[laleggenda27]

Leon by virtue of being faster, longer, and cleaner on the feet.

 

[mister piscadinha]

JDM by being the better boxer

 

[wufabufa]

Leon is more well rounded but his best bet is to struggle huggle JDM. If he can't make it happen he's going to gas and then get lit the fuck up.

Picked JDM, it's his time.

 

[FrappeDuRocma]

If heartless Rocky shows, he will lose, but I'm confident he will win.

Don't feed the trolls.
Just don't.

JDM will make this look easy.

JDM is a bum.

Facts. Too many people confusing racism against others which is hatred and negative with a preference for people similar to you which is just an attachment and positive. Doesn’t mean you hate anyone just cause you love a group more than others

 

[SamuraiBro]

JDM is a bum.

 

[Elvis.]

It’s an excellent fight night main event

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Hopefully Jack via violent KO.

Probably Edwards via hugging against the fence.

I know, but in this case he’s reporting the news from Benny P, the Australian guy, who has a good track record and almost reported every Maddalena fight up until now (aside of the JDM vs Holland fight, that’s one of the bigger fights that me and my boys broke )
