      It’s partly his fault for why he lost. After Leon got that takedown in the first round and was the first to land a takedown on Usman in the UFC. Usman took it personally and tried to make a example out of Leon by grinding him out and tryna break his spirit for 4 more rounds. It almost worked, Usman started coasting in the last few minutes and got caught. That’s on him for not ending it earlier when he had the opportunity to

      he only smiles when his students get fucked up. people think he is a sadist for this. but personally from a grappler who also used to strike, i have had many a coach. trevor smiles because he is excited for a challenge and also respects anyone who can get through his athlete. he knows how much work they do so he cant help but respect being defeated and immediately fantasize about what he wants to change. he is a baby danaher in my opinion
