One of the most underrated fighters in the UFC no one talks about him when he’s a legit threat to everyone in the division
Aye, u cant deny his skills but feels that he is somehow unlikable and UFC doesnt want to promote him.
Have been saying he should fight Woodley for a while, hope the fight still happens
He's a great figher. I enjoy watching him fight but I always remember that the current UFC champ (usman) already beat him.
Masvidal, Wonderboy, Woodley and Colby all would beat him. He doesn't get the credit he deserves because he is in the most stacked division in mma and needs to prove he can take out former or current champion.
@Junior Faber no they wont
Most underrated fighter at 170.
Not even top 3, even the guy who beat Edwards gets brought up less
The Meme Connoisseur Doesn’t have to be top 3 to be underrated.
@@najib9093 I'm talking about top 3 most underrated WW's and yes it does if the topic is who's the most underrated..
The Meme Connoisseur he’s literally ranked #4...
@@MackV99 Did you even read the comment?
And now he’s the new welterweight champion
I'm so glad they brought this series back. The "signature moves" is so awesome.
Imagine an Izzy Episode... Question mark kick, faints, back elbows, ... Conor shoulders...
0:00 "I'm Yoshi Weltuhweight, Lea "Rocky" Edwards"
That's a yikes from me dawg YOSHI WELTERWEIGHT
I had to rewind and re-listen to it and now I cannot hear it any other way than Yoshi Weltaweight
LOOL took me couple times to hear “UFC”
So this is the infamous "brummie" (Birmingham) accent, sounds like a very bad lisp to me
Chvj Dvpa thats not how really how a brum accent sounds he does have a weird voice Watch peaky blinders to hear a real brum accent
He’s one of the most well rounded fighters in the World and he’s definitely the dark horse at 170
him and Geoff Neal
Hotep Tiger - Neal is such a beast
Fritz - True but if Woodley fights like Woodley then nobody beats him at 170
Ponzinnibio too
tony ferguson - Ponzinibbio is a beast but I think he’s overrated
He barely beat Perry and his only win worth mentioning was his last fight against Magny
Coulda retired Woodley with it.. 🤦🏻♂️
Hey Grandmaster how’s quarantine? You working on any videos?
Retiring Woodley in the cage is a nice gesture but retiring Woodley's rap career would be legendary. 🔥
shut the fuck up hater
@@omaralbalushi5559 is he wrong though?
@@cheetoyeeto1232 still though dont be a hater, he's a fuckin tool
Great vid. Also 3:20 respect for stopping after you ko'd em
Bruv dat elbow against gunner nelson was mad ting ain’t
No need to try so hard Mohammed.
And Peachy Parasite, you're a good little dhimmi, aren't you.
@@ChrisDynamo stfu
Yeah bruv mad ting ya get me wagwan my g dunknow bout da streetz doe fam my cuz iz on dis big man ting braaaaaap
*COME TO BIRMINGHAM BRUV OI LAD AND I BEAT YA OOP MATE SO IF YA DUNT SHOOT OP AI GUUN KICK YU IN DA FACE BRUV YOU FOOKIN BLOODY DUNKEY MATE OI. GUD SAV THE QUEEN BRUV OI LAD.*
@@tonytancos8051 beg
Finally he gets the recognition he deserves
How u feel
Hes come a long way since losing to usman
Not a long way since he got 3 piece and soda'd by Masvidal tho
@@rpg5636 uhh ok
@@rpg5636 yea he could have derailed a hype train if Masvidal signed the contract to bad Masvidal didn't want a fair fight with him
@@rpg5636 Just wait, when they do fight, Edwards will smoke Masvidal.
@@akshayazariah would be a close fight. Edwards won't smoke him lol
People need to start showing this dude more respect
The grab, direction shift, then elbow on Gunnar is beautiful. Perfect technique and footwork.
That elbow against Nelson was super fast, Leon is definitely extremely underrated for what he has achieved and his potential going forward. I believe he will finish Woodley.
That's some vicious elbow
UFC fans " Why does Conor get big matchups, because of his big mouth?"
Also UFC fans " Who cares if Leon Edwards is a legit title contender, HE'S BORING lul".
Corp Sjun at least someone is speaking out 😑
Conor get big matchups because he is biggest star in UFC history. Simple as that. He became that thanks to his charisma out of octagon and his fighting skills inside the octagon. Leon is good fighter but he doesn't have any charisma. He is boring outside the cage so he will never be huge star.
You're an idiot no doubt.
@@ettorebugatti9354 If that was the case, khabib wouldn't be as big as he is and he has the charisma of a wet sponge.
@jakiiboi8 I mean, he was set to fight former champion. He gets his opportunities. What else do you want? He already lost to a current champion so he really must prove that he is championship level fighter. And no better way to prove that than beating a former champ like Tyron Woodley.
Super stoked seeing Rocky Edwards get some love, always liked his personality.
He's a reason masvidal should just stop chasing the belt... Lol cos even if he somehow wins Usman, Leon will murder him...
@@tell-it7649 true dat. Leon would murk him
Okoye Stevens Ike mas is awesome too. You don’t gotta down talk another fighter to appreciate one
@@justincase4613 sharap... Ain't that exactly that journeyman does? Why are you pawns protecting douches jorge insults every wrestler, colby insults even babies, yet we can't talk them down? Grow up..
Okoye Stevens Ike the point is your a loser talking somebody down on the internet cause your lonely and your life sucks and you are probably raised in a crappy home. Other people usually write to try and spread positivity but losers like you wont have it and it’s a shame.
That swelling on Gunnar Nelson was disgusting
You think that was disgusting. Well it seems to me that your new to the aftermath of Joanna's face after the Zhang Weili fight.
@@sobiabano9443 i watched that fight live you donut. But this video isn'tt about them two ladies is it?
Yeah that was horrible, looked super fucking uncomfortable, but Joanna's head was some next level shit, I didn't think you could get a hematoma of that size!!
@@sobiabano9443 You're a donut.
@@jayrex690 Donut.
That straight at the end was a beauty!!!
I was hugging my gf, now she doesnt breath. Cool elbow technique, thanks beast Rocky.
Let's go for that belt!!!!!
You are lucky Khabib at least you can throw rocks at women in your neck of the woods. #Hespect
Wow broken English just like khabib.
@@EcsMurphy Brother im dedicated troll....

Smesh her brodar😂
Thank you for sharing the knowledge! 🔥
Leon Edwards has a high IQ and one of the best tacticians in the division. He can beat you by knockout, sub, or decision which is very dangerous in itself. Most fighters can only do one of the two.
Man he's got some nasty elbows
Man that left hand was quick
And the sportsmanship when he let the opponent go... Instead of killing him
Ufc should do a signature series on how to screw over Leon Edwards. They are the best in the game at that.
Sean oreilly ask KAMARU USMAN HOW THAT FELT!!! They only promote SHIT TALKING AND FANCY HYPE FIGHERS
@@1D.JFanMma sugar foot lol
Welterweight & Lightweight division are on 🔥🔥🔥
Leon gave the fans the best gift - ktfo of that sick bigheaded fool back to earth. A true salt of the earth MMA fighter - Leon Edwards. May this King reign long. I can't stop watching Leon now.
What a great video! I love this kind of content, would love to see more of this with other fighters!
I’d love to see him fight Jorge
He was already lost in the backstage fight. Lol!
I would like to see him fight against Ponzinibbio
@@Ollivier10x56 he's not on the map right now
@@yeps0859 another brainless Jorge's expendable pawn
jorge is a bitch who can't get in the cage and fight Leon like a man
@@yeps0859 he destroys Masvidal in a fight, you're deluded if you think otherwise... and I'm a fan of Masvidal!!!
Leon is the next champ 100% I’ve been saying this for a couple years. Been backing my guy for time
You know it bro 🤙. Their 1st fight was close but i reckon Edwards takes it this time.
KingDoms Kingdom1985, So many casuals don’t realise Leon actually gave Usman a few problems. And that was a shadow of the version Leon is now.
@@jimnosnow4484 exactly bro, i think alot of those people are just new "fans" of the sport who don't truly watch it but only watch highlights and the trash talking videos online... as nobody who watches the sport seriously would ever say shit about Edwards in a negative way. Their 1st fight he did lose but it was a close bout but Edwards has improved ALOT, I'm itching to see that one ran back again 🤙
KingDoms Kingdom1985, You know it. Half the fanbase think Masvidal is actually a top 5 Welterweight too. Shows you how many new fans the ufc has picked up in the last year and a half. Leon’s the most well rounded fighter at welterweight imo. Remember watching him fight live for the first time a couple years ago and he’s improved so much since. Showcases new skills every time. Reminds me of a welterweight Jones
Jim I like it, you knew 🤙
I love this Signature Moves series! Please keep em coming
They brought this back!!!!
can we get more content like this when we can? i really like the diversity of the content the quarantine is inspiring
Leon is such a straight shooter. No bullshit just straight skill and determination. Very exciting guy too watch
Wow didn't really like him before but this made me gain a lot of respect for him and his ability
Watch the hype train start if he beats Khamzat. Can smell the casual hype from a mile away. Meanwhile they yet to know Leon exists
After i watch this video
I love leon edwards.
Thanks for your technique
Looks like a nice guy in this interview
Yes. More of these please.
More of these please
Oh cool their bringing this series back
Underrated 👊🏼
Hi I'm Jorge Masvidal and this is my signature move: "The 3 piece and a soda" I walk with my hands behind my back sucker punch my opponent and then I leave
Should be, hi I am Sissy jorge masdival I am a journeyman... Period...
😂😂😂
Dont talk shit wont get punched in the face simple as that. Dude ran his mouth and got served then screamed assault lol
Fast as lighting and he hits hard .. I wish Edwards the best in his career ..he would make a great fight in that division with any of the top 5
He literally is number 2 in reality but loud mouth jorge has mouthed his way there ...
Okoye Stevens Ike ur absolutely right my friend .. jorge will have a tough time with usman but it will be a great fight and whoever is next for Leon should watch out for this man he is a real threat for that belt and division for a long time
Neat series, would love to see more.
Great stuff
Good work
Damn Leon is technical as hell;
Let’s go Leon
My boy Scotty Leon
Nice one mate 🙌
his elbows are a thing of beauty.
Masvidal's personal Nightmare is Leon Edwards.
And this is why Leon Edwards has the most aesthetic physique
Leon Edwards has incredible roundhouse kicks and elbows that that do serious cuts
If everyone finds a good mentor then that person can become a good fighter👑
Leon Scott is for real
that hand raise was ferocious 2:37
Straight basics, simple but effective. I hope to train with you someday.
Edward's is a pro. That's sweet skill. Text book. Nice job!
Most impressive skills and the timing and executions is perfection Leon Edwards! Lots of fighters can do the move in practice but they lose the plot once they step in the ring! As Denzel Washington would say "MY MAN" Leon "ROCKY" Edwards is one dangerous cat!
Big up mr Edwards big up to all the brumeys respect
Loved that vid short sweet and lethal.
Man this is a DANGEROUS man 🗣💯
Doing the basic, simple things superbly well...so underrated. No need for going over the top on flashy stuff just land
Dudes a beast
This dude has the best elbows at welterweight. Dropping Nelson and making serious damage vs RDA and cerrone is no joke. Also a highly underrated left kick, luque still has nightmares with it.
I've seen this guy fight multiple times and I was still surprised to hear his voice.
I need more like this from Ufc❤️
Underrated going about his work , Till getting the promotional push but talent wise and mentality looks as if edwards is the real deal - a rematch with usman beckons i think .
This guy will be a future champ great everywhere i think he might have retired woodley had they fought
One of the pound for pound best martial artists within the UFC. I wish the UFC would promote him more.
He's great
I'm impressed. His technique is sweet and he has some good fighters on his resume. Always managed to somehow miss his bouts. Not anymore.
Here after his match announcement with Khamzat...gonna be an epic matchup!
Thanks
Ugh yeah the elbow shots are brutal!
Leon is a straight savage lets not get it twisted guys!
He can beat masvidal
Yea.. I’m a masvidal fan too.
No he doesn't have the grit I'm sorry but no one can break masvidal
cassidy erickson Who said anything about breaking him? He’ll just beat him like the other 13 guys did, I say this as a fan of Jorge.
@@ek7404 lol get out of fairy land. He's a completely evolved fighter he doesn't sit anymore and wait he goes for the kill every fight you've seen him I dont have to point it out but he's literally been running through his competition. Edwards has too but he can't beat masvidal he hasn't faced any of the guys Jorge did
cassidy erickson if Masvidal doesn’t fight until one person dies, I can see Leon winning if the fight goes to the judges.
This guy is a killer. Hope he gets a fight soon
I love using him in ufc 3
Hes got low attributes though.
Leon "unanimous decision" Edwards
He got robbed of a unanimous decision against Gunnar, he won 2 rounds out of 3, clearly, including a 10-8, but one idiot judge gave the fight to Gunnar, how retarded is that?
He cant finish people.
@@pitchrich5893 The last clip of that video was literally him finishing someone in 8 seconds 😂
Most underrated welterweight...hands down.
Beautiful
Ayyy he’s dope
Here come the “3 pIeCe aNd a SoDa” “lEon sCott” “hE’s bOriNg” comments from Masvidal and Colby fangirls.
michael thomas it’s not
if you really care, you're not any better than them
michael thomas it was just another copy of “who the fook is that guy.” Not really that funny, not original
Those brainless bots, and retarded pawns... Leon right now is the only legit number 2 next to Usman after colby lost his jaw..
Literally nowhere to be seen
Now we'll see a real test for Khamzat.
Great fighter
Give this man more promotion
Give this man a title shot
The guy is so underrated
My dudes underrated af.
Here after Smesh guy ! 💪🏼
Love it
Most underrated fighter of UFC
Leon edwards is the best cant wait to see the fight with usman
I haven't seen him outstruck in ufc
He dominated Luque, Barbarena, Cowboy, Gunnar and RDA. He definitely doesn't get enough credit, all because he doesn't spew shit out of mouth every 5 minutes like Masvidal. How can a guy be on an EIGHT FIGHT UFC win streak and NOT fight for the title? It's insane. Same happened to Zaleski Dos Santos, he was on a 7 fight win streak and not even allowed in the top 10.
He was been outstrucked by masvidal at the backstage fight. 😂
@@yeps0859 When they lock horns in the Octagon, no cheap shots, Edwards will break him.
@@ChrisDynamo masvidal was always quiet, it was leon being a loudmouth doing that interview that got things started for masvidal. i get it that you're a fan of this guy, but cmon. not like it really matters because he would probably beat masvidal in a fight.
@@ChrisDynamo domainated? If it was Pride rules Barbarena would have won. He barely outstruck RDA, he got outstruck by tuminov but won the grappling and the fight because of the old rules. And i don't hate on the guy i actually had him winning against Tyron
This dude is the future
Elbows are nasty weapons man
I thought his signature move was ordering a 3 piece and a soda?
where is the joke? he is 1 of the most technical and complete fighters in ufc RN if ur a fan but casuals are blind
Raffael900me quit getting so butt hurt over another man. It was a good joke
@@bio-hazzard1233 IT WAS A CHILDISH JOKE AND SILLY. YALL LOVE PUSHING FAKE NARRATIVES
