Media Leon says he will NOT sign contract vs. Colby Covington

[Christhammer]

RIGHTFULLY SO.
Good on Leon. Someone’s gotta step up to that bald headed goof.

Fk Dana WHITE privilege.

Could Trump have had a say in all of this? Maybe he ordered Dana to give Colby the next title shot?
Speculation galore but I feel like Dana and Colby sharing a lot of the same values has a lot to do with this preferential treatment.

I hate race baiters

 

[Small Town Andrew]

This is one of the bigger cases of a champion ducking we have seen in a long time.

They should strip him of his title

I know you guys hate Colby but the fact is he is a top 3 WW and has only lost to Usman.

Even If MMA had an independent ranking council that determined title shots, Colby would be getting it, since he's ranked #3 behind Leon and Usman.

Come on now is not about deserving Leon wants to fight Masvidal or McGregor lol Colby is more deserving then those two any day. Then again if Masvidal beats Burns that's a top contender higher then anyone Colby beat. Colby did turn down Leon few times so I guess Leon now holds all the cards.

 

[WalterSobchak]

Trump is too busy getting arrested. Needs Dana to teach him how to stay out of jail after smacking his bitch up.

Win/win for Edwards. Either he gets a pile of pintsworths that pleases him, or (as the consolation prize) gets to be the hero we want.

He can join Ngannou fighting in BKFC or ONE halfway across the world and fade into obscurity

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

His fights with Usman drew like 700K. Kamaru doesn't pull those numbers when he's fighting anybody else.

Yet Colby vs masvidal didn't sell.
UFC 245 Usman vs Colby was Usman'so lowest selling title fight.
Usman vs masvidal sold more.
Usman vs Edwards cracked 1mil.
Usman vs masvidal 2 sold 1.3ml

We can safely bet Edwards vs Usman 3 did more than it too.

So you're completely wrong.

[USA-man]

Hes gonna help his bro train for mousasi then we'll see, im sure if money is right he takes the fight

 

[FIghtxIQ]

He's angling for a Masvidal fight because it's the most winnable and the most marketable.

That or Conor.

Why the fuck did you all caps WHITE?

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

Stripped. Colby vs Shavkat for vacant belt. Leon vs Belal 2 as title eliminator.

I would be fine with watching Shavkat absolutely maul Colby.

I hate race baiters

I feel it's relatively recent on the forum, never remember seeing even a little race baiting outside of playful jabs at eachother on old Sherdog. Just another account along with people like Dreyga to ignore, at least they out themselves quickly.

Cuz of Colby's pearly whites

 

[Hypetrainofthemonth]

If it was independent, then he would not be #3, so no he would not.

 

[Royce's Gi]

If Leon does not accept the fight, strip him and give the belt to Colby.

 

[teamfox223]

I cannot believe Trump is getting arrested, I always thought Teflon Don is untouchable and the democrats are dreaming.

 

[cws80us]

Glad to see him standing up to the bully DW, but if he's angling for Masvidal then he's a hypocrite. Mas is even less deserving than Colby. May not the well trying to defy the boss.

 

[DatSamboKid]

I respect Leon for saying this, but we all know he’s going to end up signing that contract.

 

[Henatch]

But he’d sign it for Masvidal?

 

[Crash-override]

good job leon. making me more of a fan with this move.

masvidal is just as lame of a choice though

He is worse
