#BreakfastClub
Context for non-mma fans: Jorge Masvidal sucker punched Leon back stage in his hometown and cut him. Jorge then gained fame over the incident by saying he served Leon a "3 piece and a soda." Since then, Jorge continuously avoided Leon for three years, saying he's a bum and undeserving of a fight. Leon ended up beating all the odds (injuries, embarrassment, cancelled fights) and knocked out the #1 pound for pound champion in Kamaru Usman. Now Jorge is coming out talking trash again. Makes perfect sense why Leon doesn't like him.
Thanks for the history lesson, I'm a casual. 👍
Jorge is the biggest man child ever
And Jorge is on a 3 fight losing streak now too
Lol right and Jorge thought he was too big time fighting for fake BMF belts and getting ppv points the whole time but look at how the world turns things around.
Nope, (As much respect as Leon deserves), Leon didn't act humble and interrupted Masvidals post Darren Till fight interview, got cocky with him out of nowhere, Masvidal didn't take that, walked up to him and threw some punches. That scenario would not have happened if Leon just walked by and let Masvidal have his interview. Leon exchanged first looks and words!!
I have to be honest it is beautiful to see Leon getting all this attention and interviews, I think anybody who's come from nothing or basically lived a life being dismissed by everyone will really love Leon's Story
Not only that he had a story the company could have pushed but they ignored him as well. Overcame all the odds foreal
Enjoy it now cause it won’t last long
@@ao1461 🤡
Francis leon khamzat all from the streets khabib from the mountains
These damn onions making my eyes water
"HEAD SHOT DEAD!!!" Love seeing Leon with the strap , didn't sellout, stayed being himself and pushed through adversity and got the job done, mad respect
Bang! Done! Look at me NOW!!!
He on breakfast club he sold out sorry tell u
@@Flyc2 naw he didn’t. Good try tho little man maybe next time.
@@swattx1536 💀man I know what I’m talking about I ain’t hateing on bro I’m happy for Leon
@@Flyc2 that's the same crazy logic that Muslims used against malcolm x
You couldn't ask for a more humble authentic badass champion
Repping BRUM To the fullest
🇬🇧
Yo! that KO he got on Usman was insane. Down 3 rounds, losing the 5th going to a 49-46 decision most likely. And he lands one of the biggest headkicks of all time against the greatest pound for pound fighter at the time. Glad I got to watch it live, the roof exploded when it happened.
I would say his down 4 round and even his team didn't believe in him
@@hbb7528 I'll give Leon the first round but 2, 3, 4 and even 5 Usman had it until that kick
I flipped out when it happened. Never been a huge fan of Usman, and I was really pulling for Leon to beat him. I obviously felt all hope was gone and Usman was for sure going to win by decision, and then he gets absolutely starched.
@@mdfmma123 I wish edwards was white hate black champions
I could dig up clips of his coaches talking to him between rounds and probably get chills right now…even though months have passed
Leon lives not far away. He's very down to earth and literally speaks to all his fans
Big up erdz

I'm from Scotland. Watched UFC since it's inception. Leon Edwards winning the belt is in my top 3 UFC moments of all time. He is an absolutely Class Dude.
As a Huge fan of this show and MMA, i thank yall for the interview. It shames me these guys arent as famous as boxers. Even Leon when he won the title (according to the brits themselves) there was hardly any mention of it on mainstream news. I hope this sport blows up quicker because these guys deserve it
Lol ufc stars are way more popular then boxers. They're jist under payed. But NOBODY gaf about boxing anymore. Eerol Spence Ryan Garcia Tank Davis Devin Haney Crawford the only popular boxers but Retired boxers, tiktokers and KZheadrs are 10X more popular then any current boxer FACTS
@@ichiganade2071 cmon that’s a silly statement . I’m also a huge mma fan but to say mma is more popular than boxing is just laughable . There’s a reason why guys like canelo and Tyson fury get paid the amount they do . That’s not to say mma won’t surpass them because they’re on their way in doing so .
@@JavierNYC423 lmao 🤣 u know nothing about the history behind the business 🤣 just stop bro and go watch jake paul casual
@@ichiganade2071 you have a very narrow mind dude 😂
He’s boring af wth it’s not our fault he got the belt and went into hiding
“Hope he comes back and does well, his success doesn’t dim mine” Man I really love this guy, well deserved title for Rocky. I can definitely say, come the trilogy fight in the UK, I’ll be happy with either result. Usman and Leon are two great fighters, and beyond that people.
I couldn’t be happier for Leon man. Such a smart and humble guy.
Big up Leon, represent Jamaica and the UK! 👊🏿
Szeen
Great to see Leon shine! From such humble backgrounds, to actually being a champ.
He said Charlemagne is smaller than he thought!😂😂😂😂😂

I’ve been watching mma since the early 2000’s. The moment he knocked Usman out was my favourite moment of all time. His story, the way he humbly carries himself. He is the true meaning of a mix martial artist. I hope he stays champion for a long time.
I'm the same! It's my favourite UFC moment in 20 years. His story and personality are class.
You should watch more UFC then lol
@@chutcentral Go outside
Best story and KO ever in ufc
Great interview. You are a positive example for the youth that are watching MMA. All of the trials and tribulations that you have been through you have always remained strong. Best of luck to you in the future. Thank You, Natasha Samuel
Both UK Champs from the UFC (Bisping and Leon) had hardships in their personal life and fight career leading up to their title win. Both underdogs and won by KO. They’ve inspired so many people.
Both had to fight like 100 people to get the shot😂😂
@@plopdoo339 lol bro no shit!!! 😂
Why do mma fans have to be so dramatic
@@Junior-ns9dn mma is dramatic bro. For example Bisping lost an eye fighting and won the belt years later with one eye. Movie type shit for sure
@@zro2843 omg you dont say! You know how cringe and corny you come off right?
I'm a big fan of mma and Rocky. Never thought I'd say it but charlamnge killed this interview. Let's see some more ufc fighters on the show. Its a damn shame envy and Lee couldn't keep there relationship under raps for an interview with the welterweight champ. Let's go Rock #LeonEdwards
Lee or Yee?
Agreed. Charla did great
Angels lee😂😂😂😂😂
When he said “is ufc and boxing different” like UFC is a sport instead of saying mma😢
Started from the bottom an healing properly. Watching his come up with his story is a movie. May greatness continues for Leon an all! 💯
Gotta respect Leon for this ..His commitment into being a better person..Many would have snapped and never leave that gang lifestyle ..Having to feel like a foreigner in a new country and your dad passed away leaving you alone …Utmost respect to the champ ..I know a lot of people who end up being emotionally torn and turn to drugs which eventually will ruin a life ..
Leon Rocky Edwards life is a real life movie and has amazing journey that everyone should be aware of . Definition of a motivational story that will touch you . P4P headshot dead . That's it #legendary. Much love Champ
As a MMA fan I’m definitely happy Leon get this look on this big platform. Happy for him
Great interviewing from CTG, asked the right questions and gave Leon the chance to express. Salute to both 🤝
Disrespectful that angela and envy aint there. Shout out leon and cthagod
He has a beautiful story... Tears are easy coming when the grit n grind is real.. blessings Leon keep being you big baby
Proper good interview, always been a rocky fan and so glad he’s getting his time to shine
That was a dope interview Charlamgne 💪🏽 You pulled from Leon the type of information we wanted to know. Appreciate you bro. I was really hoping you were going to pull off your sock and show your foot when you asked how he was able to bust his opponent’s teeth out with his toes lol Seriously tho…great interview
Love seeing ufc fighters and boxers on the breakfast club 💪🏾
Leon Edwards is such a humble, respectful guy, that KO of Kamaru Usman was shocking, so happy to see Leon as the WW champ and getting the spotlight to shine 🙌👏👏👏
Hell yeah. I just was listening to a video of Joe Rogan stopping a guy at the bar from trying to fight Leon because he didn’t know who he was. Rogan said you are about to make a “cataclysmic mistake” 😂
Send me a link bro?
Please be true
It's true! kzhead.infouD8Cm5N1PQI

"Headshot 🔫BANG💥 DEAD!💀" GREATEST post fight comment even better then Diazs "I'm not surprised muffukas!" I litterally almost cried for Leon after he won 🙌🏽
*Bang
@@Viraledits791 👍
Nothing better than the Diaz
@@venenosoblue4275 Diaz beat down a mcgregor dude who's a foot shorter. I wasn't surprised and neither wer the other 20 people watching it with me so it didn't rly hold much weight to true fight fans only to you casuals 👀
POW! Bullseye! Terminated!
Great interview let’s go champ!!🐐
"They said I couldn't do it, the odd said I couldn't do it, look at me now living it, p4p head shot dead that's it" Sir Leon Edwards.

very good and humble interview
Leon seemed like the most focused fighter leading up to and rematch. Seemed like he was following an internal path.
I need an interview with the whole crew for Leon !!!
Good interview by CthaGod asking in-depth questions
Glad Leon getting his recognition
i remember when he won the belt he said "CAN YOU SEE ME NOW?" all those years, 9 fight winning streak only to be ignored time and time again. soon as he got the shot BOOMO. yea we see you now Leon, you made it. well deserved.
Leon is a legend grinded for years and never got a chance and now he is the champion head shot dead
Dope that y’all got him in. Good talk Charlemagne. Leon is the man 🦾
I'm proud to be a fan of a sport with such honorable & humble champions as Leon.

Amazing interview by Charlamagne
Love this interview, great work Charlamagne!
Charla should definitely attend a UFC fight. The crowd would show him some love and I bet he’d have a great time. Just need to attend the right fight.
Ctg did a good interview, I didn’t even notice the other two won’t there
C Tha God is a natural great interview
This guy's a legend
I'm a big fan of Leon and will be rooting for him in the rematch. I just hope he hasn't become complacent after his last win.
That's commitment even though everyone left the show must go on.
This guy has balls man many a guy would have folded after what happened but he’s a winner and champion
The legend 🙌
Hell yea get more ufc guys
