Was Brady vs Edwards one of the most emasculating beatdowns in recent main event history?

[Fact Checker]

I don’t recall a more impressive and thorough beatdown in recent main event history… Leon got outstruck, outgrappled, and outworked into quitting. I feel like Brady gave him a way out slowly synching that guillotine and Edwards took it.


Credit to Brady for taking his game and conditioning to a new level… he set a high pace and beat the fight out of Leon.

What’s a more dominant shutout in recent years?

 

[Spacebadger]

Belal vs Leon.

 

[Limeade]

Alex versus Hill.

 

[tymikeson]

strickland vs izzy

 

[MisfitsBR]

Moicano x BSD

but I'm a Sean Brady fan now, that was a real beating, I'm glad to see a non-boring grappler

Real life NOBODY TS referring to a pro cage fighter and insinuating emasculation is beyond ridiculous.

oh yeah, that's a good pick. one way traffic and elbow express lane.

I missed this. Really surprised to be reading this. Leon is supposed to shine against grapplers with bad striking. What's going on?

 

[Bork Neslar]

I wouldn't say so. I'd say it was a great performance against a dangerous but inconsistent opponent.

"Emasculating"? OP sounds like a guy who thinks his balls will fall off if he uses the wrong shampoo. Maybe you'd feel so easily emasculated, but that's no reason to assume Leon does.

Gotta suck to get beat up in your own backyard.

It more than sucks as he got beat up in his own backyard back to back

Leon only wants to win if there is no resistance. Vastly overrated, most top 10 would have beaten him in his last couple fights. Zero heart.

 

[tritestill]

The replies here are hilarious and Leon landed zero strikes in the second round lol. Leon had half a chance in the first part of the first round. After Sean landed a three punch combination that didn't really hurt Leon physically, I think hurt him mentally, because Sean coming out striking confused him and he had no answer and conceded takedowns, which he was so good against Usman in their second and third fight IIRC. Leon just wilted and gave up, you could tell midway through the first round that the fight was done. He stuck around a couple rounds, but he was done.

Leon's performance against his father Belal was worse IMO because people expected him to win where as no one really expected Leon to win against Brady.

 

[rear naked ankle pick]

ank embarassed alex pooreira even worse

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Belal broke Leon

Brady crumpled him up like a dollar bill

 

[burningspear]

strickland vs izzy

that was a shocker !

 

[TITS]

I'd hardly call that a "beatdown", maybe "effective grappling". You can't spend an entire round trying to lock in a kimura then be credited with beating your opponent down. It was a very low IQ performance by Leon, especially that takedown attempt in round 3.

If you want to see a really "emasculating beatdown" watch this:

 

[Objectively Correct]

Reminder that Leon was like 10 seconds away from being defeated by fucking Nate Diaz lmao
