What happened to Leon Edwards?

Leon got rich. Semi rich. Than this 5'7 short guy from America came around. He wasn't rich. Needed money. Younger. So he was motivated and beat Leon. Leon waits and strategises without being a elite grappler. Didn't work anymore. That guy who beat him is like 5'7.
 
Eh, always seems disinterested in fighting, so he comes in, wins the belt and defends a couple times then dips, not a bad career.
 
He was always more of an over achiever than he was wildly talented. I think he's settled in to where he actually belonged the whole time.

He found a way to be effective and win fights but was always prone to lapses in concentration. He'd kinda fall into a trance during his fights and it almost cost him numerous times before and after the head kick.

Between getting rocked by a stockton slap and deciding to shoot take downs on Sean Brady, he goofs up constantly
 
Have you ever tried to fight with a fractured Skull?

Real talk that could have actually caused some neck issues that could explain sitting out. Just a pure guess obviously, but that was a nasty spill he took. That was actually skirting the territory of the rule of not being allowed to spike your opponent.
 
The guy simply disappeared after being schooled by Bumlal

No one remembers that he fought Brady

Even a sherdogger with his avatar disappeared too (maybe he is Luffy)

Leon been less active because of injuries. Only fought once in 2024 when he lost title to Belal and fought once in 2025 when he lost to Brady.

Hes still good but he needs to change his approach. Whenever his gameplans go to shit, he cant pivot to a new strategy and just cruises to a loss.

That's pretty blatant spiking, IMO. Crazy that it didn't get called and no one here cared.

Belal is not younger than him
