My Analysis on Usman Vs Leon...Leon will win imo again

Yeah, that was the thing...I saw Marty on a down turning point vs Leon
I really thought, Leon would finish Usman in 3rd or 4th round
But Usman still was dangerous enough to make comfortable Leon hold back
Leon, like I thought, made so many great reads on Usman...in rounds 1 and 2
Thats the trick, see who is reading who more
Leon, in round 1...was clearly making better reads
People who don't know, you can tell, because one fighter actually gets comfortable and reacts well
Leon did that in rounds 1 and 2...d
but yeah good fight...Leon team did well.
Thames Level Leon is just a different beast, looked sharpest he's ever looked tonight. Hope this translates into more confidence and a more aggressive style.

When I watched this fight, Usman had that elbow, and pressure, while Leon was thinking Head Kick only at the right moment.
However, that 1st and 2nd round Mid Kick from Leon was on POINT...I was like Holy Crap...I was VERY impressed by that
His kicks from Knee down were there too...but IMO, right, I am not fighting, but...I kept thinking..dude, switch up mid kick to Knee and below
Cause that knee and below was very off setting for Usman..you could see it early not but Leon left that
...but as the fight went on...Leon left that...IDK...Just thought..he controlled both...mid section and kicking Usmans Knee and below
Both meaning the mid kick and knee and below...to shin
Doesn't matter, Leon TDD defense won it at the end of day and maybe was more worried about that
Or focused on that vs how successful his kicks were
My frustration was, ok, just let it go where you can....I felt, sure mid kick...but I think he had enough to kick Usmans knee to shin too
Like Usmans lead leg, I felt Leon help back in worries in getting taken down
I just did not see that while watching
I thought based on his stance, and backing up, he could have kicked anytime he wanted in those two areas...the knee and mid section
Rounds 1 and 2 were going that way
But, Leon played it that way...IDK...just saw it like that
Did you see that too?
