It’s so weird how after the press conference everyone was like “is Leon gonna keep his cool to be beat Colby, he could get emotional and get knocked out or taken down” But after the fight when Leon DID keep his cool and stuck to the game plan (which was the right thing to do) people are like “Leon didn’t do enough you’d think he do something after what Colby said about his dad” Honesty can people just give Leon the respect he deserves
I honestly don't get the hate Leon gets. I thought that fight was actually exciting. Like it was a good fight. Kept me on the edge of my seat. It wasn't boring at all to me either
It's just sad watching Tony Ferguson at this point, but I don't think with his mindset he will listen to anybody that tells him to hang it up. He's almost 40 and has 7 losses in a row, at this point even Dana needs to save him from himself.
Always tell yourself before watching any jre clip, " this is the same joe rogan that said ronda can beat bantam weight male contenders and champions and thought ronda boxing is supreme.." And you will take everything joe says with a lake of salt.
@@AfroDevil He's not saying Joe has no Idea of what he's talking about. He is an expert for sure, has done some martial Arts himself and has been in the game for decades. But Joe's also a Fan and sometimes he just talks like one and throws out some ''emotionally guided'' takes. Wich is fine and also why a lot of people love him. But some people need to learn to not take everything he says for gold and just to don't take him that serious.
Colby last 3 wins were against lawler who was way past his prime woodley who was past his prime and got injured Masvidal past his prime granted he had a good fight with usman both times but still lost that division was only kept busy by usman none of the top guys fought each other Colby waited around to long

@@aaronmchenry8136 the UFC already fully documented that by their doctors. I’m not even a Colby fan, it’s the unfortunate thing that happened regardless of what anyones opinion is on him.
Go ahead and blame the coaches instead of the has been fighter who called out a 40 year old Wonderboy who is ranked below him. What an embarrassing move. He's too afraid to call out the guy who just beat Wonderboy, Shavkat Rakhmonov. Rakhmonov would graveyard the mouthy has been. I look forward to the day Colby goes into retirement never having won a belt.
Going from "I thought Paddy looked great - Tony is still dangerous you guys!" Literally STRAIGHT to "So who's giving Tony the tap on the shoulder?" Wild. Tony was a sacrificial lamb so that Paddy could beat a big name (if no longer a big fighter) and justify himself. Paddy winning on an unconvincing decision should end both fighters' careers.
@josephjohnston1996 You're probably right, I barely remember the fight it was so forgettable. Point is, Paddy had to make a statement by knocking someone out and he couldn't knock out Tony on his Zimmer frame.
Once they feel leons striking there wrestling becomes harder to use because they dont want that smoke coming in for a takedown...its leon who makes them look average its about time your started respecting leons game
Ring rust is real. I think they are acting like Leon did more than he did. He landed some jabs and a bunch of leg kicks. He got taken down and held down at times. Took Colby 3 rounds to get going 2 years off was along time.
@bradleykimmons Lol, you're the one making excuses for his embarrassing loss. The facts are Colby's performance was terrible, and he barely won one round. Any reasons for that are just speculation. This really isn't anything to argue about.
I just think Colby has never fought a new age technician like Leon and he froze. WW has historically had good wrestleboxers or one dimensional strikers or straight up sprawl-and-brawlers.
People don't want to fave facts but guys 35+ in title fights from 170 down are 2-29. And those 2 wins belong to Tyrone Woodley who went on to lose his next 6 including getting koed by Jake Paul
Colby isn't the guy everyone swears he is. What happened to "if Usman was the Champ Colby would be..." LoL Colby was a fart in the wind dream for the fan boys that love the heat of a used car salesman. "His gas tank is incredible..." Till he gets his chin checked 😂
I don’t understand what Joe means by “colby finished on top, it doesn’t look good” Leon outclassed him stand up and grappling doesn’t really matter how the fight ends
Clearly when the boss publicly describes you as 'slow and old' you know he was embarrassed and your Dana-privilege is gone. Colby didn't deserve that title shot and now he's got to do some hard yards. And that probably shouldn't include picking his next fight with a 40 year old pure striker.
I think Colby was more worried about his image etc if he got finished more than he wanted to win, on top of that doing what he did at the press conf intensified his worry of how Leo would react
Fucking rogan during that fight was going on and on about how Leon should try to finish the fight and when he took a risk to get a submission but ended up getting reversed Rogan immediately started going off about how he tarnished his performance by ending the fight on the bottom. He gets so caught up in creating narratives that he completely misses what's going on sometimes. I'll be glad when he's out of the booth.
@@MMARavid no hes the greatest next to jon anik. his knockout reactions are amazing, you simply dont like rogan and its okay, your entitled to your wrong opinion.
"What the Hell Happened to Colby Covington?" Absolutely nothing! Look at his UFC record. The guys has NEVER beaten a PEAK UFC welterweight. He is a gas tank merchant meaning, his game plan is to "out cardio" the opponent so it will look like he won the fight. That has never worked with PEAK WWs. LOL
Leon still getting backhanded compliments. Colby is a great wrestler, the fact that he took Leon down and held him there at the very end of the fight doesn't "Look bad"
That was such a dumb take from Joe on the night, most fans watching didn’t care that Colby had him on the ground when Leon won 4.5 rounds. He kept going on and on about it as if we didn’t just see Leon dominate him.
It's on the UFC to cut Tony. It's clear, he's not that concerned about hurting his legacy, that damage is done, and apparently not concerned with taking damage. Apparently the money and/or the competition/lifestyle is more important. Honestly, it's kind of understandable, I'd get beat up for 15 minutes for 250-500k,
It would’ve looked better on Colby if he would’ve called out a guy who won their last fight instead of calling for a 40-year old Stephen Thompson who just lost.
My theory is Colby has become his character and deliberately lost because of it. I don’t know how else to explain it. He threw that fight. We all know that what we saw vs Leon was not Colby.
Colby is 35, hadn’t fought in 21 months, hasn’t beat anyone coming off less than 2 losses in FIVE years, has no power, has no submission threat, and is much smaller than Leon edwards. Leon is better your just coping
Disagree - Leon was just a really bad match up for Colby. Colby’s style only works if he can use his volume striking to close distance and chain wrestle. Leon’s distance management, speed and movement was just too good for that - every time Colby tried to close the distance he got stung with kicks or punches that clearly hurt. So much so Colby started biting laughably hard on Leon’s feints. And then when he did get close Leon was good enough and strong enough to not only defend his take downs, but also reverse some. That left Colby with no path to victory and so he fought like a beaten man.

Leon's striking is such a threat for other fighter that they cannot fight comfortable because of being afraid of getting knocked tf out, in Diaz case, we all know he's freaking Nate Diaz so he's not gonna get knocked out
Where do you people get this BS from? He knocked out Usman with a 5th round Hail Mary and all the sudden he is a devastating KO artist? Nah Bruh... Dude only has 33% of his wins by way of KO/TKO. The threat with him is being pieced up and out pointed for 5 rounds and ending up with hamburger meat for legs. Get your facts straight...

After watching Aldana vs. Rosa on the prelims and Colby promising the 7 layers of hair/hell, I wasn't expecting Colby to win but I was expecting him to FIGHT. Colby's shtick is f'n embarrassing if he ain't putting the effort in the cage. Based on his appearances on Fox, Tucker, etc. he has 1 foot out the door looking to do politics or media or something besides fighting. He lost me as a fan that's for sure.
People saying colby broke his foot the first minute in, so changed the fight .... yep! Leon defended himself and disabled his opponent at the same time ..... that's martial arts, colby was overcome
@DjAlanBarratt Oh no leon 100% deserved the win, just saying colby fought shit due to his injury. People saying he's lost it but if you can't push of that foot, it would effect his whole game plan.
He lost two title fights and shit his pants at the possibility of losing again. The was a performance anxiety loss because he could have just wrestled to a win.
Colby is the type of dude to throw a fight.....because he's in debt. Only way I would describe why a person doesn't look like themselves or not give it there best
Coby was scared of getting KOd.

How many Rhonda rowsey has he created? You know how many “greatest of all times” he says and they are gone from the sport in 1 year ?

@@NayaWrapyou do know he’s been working with them for like 20+ yrs and is an avid fan of mma, he just speaks his mind and happened to have a fighter on the pod this time so of course they talk fighting.
Your so dumb. Everytime they cut to a promo it’s of Joe Rogan saying. “Wow greatest of all time”
If I had a dollar for every time Joe says “massive”
Colby should go down to 155 cut the weight like everyone else maybe then he'll have size over the 155ers
His cardio would be diminished making the cut to 155
He couldn’t make 155
@@slickdon1yes the fuck he can he is so small lol
Tony went from being a interim champion to old man Diego Sanchez right before our eyes.
You have to also remember that Colby broke his foot less than 30 seconds into that fight which changed the entire trajectory.
Did he?
@@aaronmchenry8136 the UFC already fully documented that by their doctors. I’m not even a Colby fan, it’s the unfortunate thing that happened regardless of what anyones opinion is on him.
@@djtheory313and with all that said, it doesn't even matter if true.. it's a fight
Colby also isn’t good
Excuses. Slow sloppy kick gets blocked, that’s what happens.
I blame Colby's coaches man. He never fights like that
Well the 35 year old version of himself certainly does
Go ahead and blame the coaches instead of the has been fighter who called out a 40 year old Wonderboy who is ranked below him. What an embarrassing move. He's too afraid to call out the guy who just beat Wonderboy, Shavkat Rakhmonov. Rakhmonov would graveyard the mouthy has been. I look forward to the day Colby goes into retirement never having won a belt.
@@red94mr28Except the second place belt, lol.
@@vanguardprime4636 Yup. Like the saying goes, always a bridesmaid never a bride.
some athletes just get the permanent stats and abilities debuff earlier than others especially in combat sports
Going from "I thought Paddy looked great - Tony is still dangerous you guys!"
Literally STRAIGHT to
"So who's giving Tony the tap on the shoulder?"
Wild. Tony was a sacrificial lamb so that Paddy could beat a big name (if no longer a big fighter) and justify himself. Paddy winning on an unconvincing decision should end both fighters' careers.
Couldn't agree more
@josephjohnston1996 You're probably right, I barely remember the fight it was so forgettable. Point is, Paddy had to make a statement by knocking someone out and he couldn't knock out Tony on his Zimmer frame.
As if Rogan was talking so much shit about Leon’s victory just a couple of weeks ago.
Once they feel leons striking there wrestling becomes harder to use because they dont want that smoke coming in for a takedown...its leon who makes them look average its about time your started respecting leons game
Problem was he wasn't good enough. Leon made him look flat.
Ring rust is real. I think they are acting like Leon did more than he did. He landed some jabs and a bunch of leg kicks. He got taken down and held down at times. Took Colby 3 rounds to get going 2 years off was along time.
Don't care. That's all just speculation and excuses from Colby fans trying to cope with him losing.
So ring rust isn't real you've competed and know? @@vanguardprime4636
@@vanguardprime4636whether you care or not is irrelevant to the facts at hand
@bradleykimmons Lol, you're the one making excuses for his embarrassing loss. The facts are Colby's performance was terrible, and he barely won one round. Any reasons for that are just speculation. This really isn't anything to argue about.
@@vanguardprime4636 then why you posting. Take a deep breath.
I just think Colby has never fought a new age technician like Leon and he froze. WW has historically had good wrestleboxers or one dimensional strikers or straight up sprawl-and-brawlers.
People don't want to fave facts but guys 35+ in title fights from 170 down are 2-29. And those 2 wins belong to Tyrone Woodley who went on to lose his next 6 including getting koed by Jake Paul
So gaethje is losing to Islam and volk is losing to topuria
Used to be a tough in your face warrior, no longer. And his trash talk has deteriorated beyond acceptable 🥳 Good night, the party’s over !
Leon sucked. Could not finish a Colby with a broken foot and Leon got dominated in the 5th. GTFO. These guys must of hit the bong as usual.
LMAO. At no point was Leon "dominated" by Colby. Colby got two measley minutes of control time in the 5th with zero damage. Fuck off.
Colby got old. Pretty simple. Young bucks will handle it
Colby isn't the guy everyone swears he is. What happened to "if Usman was the Champ Colby would be..." LoL
Colby was a fart in the wind dream for the fan boys that love the heat of a used car salesman. "His gas tank is incredible..."
Till he gets his chin checked 😂
Totally agree. His record is completely mediocre.
Ufc does not want to release him pfl would get him
I don’t understand what Joe means by “colby finished on top, it doesn’t look good” Leon outclassed him stand up and grappling doesn’t really matter how the fight ends
Clearly when the boss publicly describes you as 'slow and old' you know he was embarrassed and your Dana-privilege is gone. Colby didn't deserve that title shot and now he's got to do some hard yards. And that probably shouldn't include picking his next fight with a 40 year old pure striker.
He should release Colby
I think Colby was more worried about his image etc if he got finished more than he wanted to win, on top of that doing what he did at the press conf intensified his worry of how Leo would react
Fucking rogan during that fight was going on and on about how Leon should try to finish the fight and when he took a risk to get a submission but ended up getting reversed Rogan immediately started going off about how he tarnished his performance by ending the fight on the bottom. He gets so caught up in creating narratives that he completely misses what's going on sometimes. I'll be glad when he's out of the booth.
He's the worst. I prefer even Sanko over him
hater. lol hes articulate whe calling out fights. commentators cant be perfect 247
@@realestJC777 he's inarguably the weakest of all the commentators.

"What the Hell Happened to Colby Covington?"
Absolutely nothing!
Look at his UFC record. The guys has NEVER beaten a PEAK UFC welterweight.
He is a gas tank merchant meaning, his game plan is to "out cardio" the opponent so it will look like he won the fight.
That has never worked with PEAK WWs.
LOL
Colby broke his foot the first 2 minutes in the fight also.
Rogan is such a casual it's insane
Man do Sean and Sergio pettis look like 2 long lost brothers...maybe just me.
Colby got old. Five years ago Colby would have smoked him.
Colby can’t dominate anyone unless they’re washed up. He barely beat RDA (a lightweight). 🤣
Leon still getting backhanded compliments. Colby is a great wrestler, the fact that he took Leon down and held him there at the very end of the fight doesn't "Look bad"
That was such a dumb take from Joe on the night, most fans watching didn’t care that Colby had him on the ground when Leon won 4.5 rounds. He kept going on and on about it as if we didn’t just see Leon dominate him.
Nah Colby should have won that fight because he won the championship rounds. First 3 rounds were a snooze fest.
@@wilhelmbittrich88 😂 not gonna gonna bite cause you can’t possibly be dumb enough to actually think that lol
@@wilhelmbittrich88Thank God this is satire, because I actually thought you were being serious for a sec.
Did Tony go on a 12 fight winning streak? Let's see if he could go on a 12 fight losing streak.
It's on the UFC to cut Tony. It's clear, he's not that concerned about hurting his legacy, that damage is done, and apparently not concerned with taking damage. Apparently the money and/or the competition/lifestyle is more important. Honestly, it's kind of understandable, I'd get beat up for 15 minutes for 250-500k,
🇺🇸 lost that night by the way 😂 both Tony and Colby! That night belong to the 🇬🇧
Those two are the American has beens lmao congrats
Tony and Coby should both retire after all they are millionaires so go enjoy your life.
2 year of layoff with a guay who did what Leon did to Kamaru in the 2nd fight...Not a good idea
I like Brady, he’s a good guy.
It would’ve looked better on Colby if he would’ve called out a guy who won their last fight instead of calling for a 40-year old Stephen Thompson who just lost.
Sean Brady isn't a good interview.
My theory is Colby has become his character and deliberately lost because of it. I don’t know how else to explain it. He threw that fight. We all know that what we saw vs Leon was not Colby.
Colby is 35, hadn’t fought in 21 months, hasn’t beat anyone coming off less than 2 losses in FIVE years, has no power, has no submission threat, and is much smaller than Leon edwards. Leon is better your just coping
@@hjon5988 Not coping. I thought Colby had the tools to win. Just didn’t do it.
Disagree - Leon was just a really bad match up for Colby. Colby’s style only works if he can use his volume striking to close distance and chain wrestle. Leon’s distance management, speed and movement was just too good for that - every time Colby tried to close the distance he got stung with kicks or punches that clearly hurt. So much so Colby started biting laughably hard on Leon’s feints. And then when he did get close Leon was good enough and strong enough to not only defend his take downs, but also reverse some. That left Colby with no path to victory and so he fought like a beaten man.

Wheres the info about him having a broken foot in the first round and fought all the way through the fight ? Colby took no harsh damage either(unless foot was broken). If true thats pretty wild. People might need to rethink shit lol..
I agree Leon didn’t do anything better than Colby it was a garbage fight watching 2 guys just circle around a cage. Colby landed more strikes in the fight. Everyone saying Leon destroyed Colby how not a scratch on him
This comment and the reply to it are pure nonsense. You saying he took no damage as he's bleeding on his face and could barely walk from all the leg kicks, lol. Get a grip on reality.
@@vanguardprime4636 okay tough guy lol… i was asking the question if there was any info on the topic, secondly if it IS true thats pretty tough of colby… sit on your couch and rethink why it is you comment under comments whilst getting no vagina. 😂
@@TheExauticTruthYeah whatever, your comment was fucking stupid so I pointed it out. End of story
@@vanguardprime4636 youre talking “about the champion” and in the last round was getting pounded on. That wasnt a great win at all… if colby had a broken foot that would be pretty dope. Like it or not buddy. Wasnt stupid it was a question if anyone knew it was true or not..
Respect to Leon.
Leon's striking is such a threat for other fighter that they cannot fight comfortable because of being afraid of getting knocked tf out, in Diaz case, we all know he's freaking Nate Diaz so he's not gonna get knocked out
Where do you people get this BS from? He knocked out Usman with a 5th round Hail Mary and all the sudden he is a devastating KO artist? Nah Bruh... Dude only has 33% of his wins by way of KO/TKO. The threat with him is being pieced up and out pointed for 5 rounds and ending up with hamburger meat for legs. Get your facts straight...
Agree w/the assessment of Leon. And I love Diaz but I feel bad for him. Not getting knocked out has done him far more harm than good. His brain is toast.
@@kennyhouser3467 wtf does that has to do with what I said? ofc hes gonna try to get controlled by Usman or any grappler bc of the fdanger he represents,m seomethign that you havent figured it out yet df. Your level of reading comprehension is poorly sad
Colby wasn't Colby in that fight. Ring rust is real. If I'm Leon I'm retiring after that one.
I hope Brady doesn’t want to fight Colby just for the money but if he wants him as a pure competitor I would love to see Brady destroy Colby in a 3 rounder
He was clueless vs Belal, I doubt he survives a motivated Colby he's awful
@@azqq1526You must know nothing. Sean Brady would MAUL Colby
Colby didn't show up.
i kinda think colby has brain damage, he just seems different, he a and conor are very sad tales
They were special from the beginning
Difference is Conor won 2 belts, Colby none
After watching Aldana vs. Rosa on the prelims and Colby promising the 7 layers of hair/hell, I wasn't expecting Colby to win but I was expecting him to FIGHT. Colby's shtick is f'n embarrassing if he ain't putting the effort in the cage. Based on his appearances on Fox, Tucker, etc. he has 1 foot out the door looking to do politics or media or something besides fighting. He lost me as a fan that's for sure.
Never understood how anyone can have colby be a mouthpiece for their platform lmao
Like, this is like a good episode. Its like, you know like, it’s like oh.
Can only take so many wars before it starts wearing down on you
He also broke his foot in the first minute of the fight
Fight more often
Mr Sean Brady .
Real warrior right there
Cant believe no one said he broke his foot kicking leons elbow in the first minute which fk up his pressure fighting strategy.
People saying colby broke his foot the first minute in, so changed the fight .... yep! Leon defended himself and disabled his opponent at the same time ..... that's martial arts, colby was overcome
@DjAlanBarratt Oh no leon 100% deserved the win, just saying colby fought shit due to his injury. People saying he's lost it but if you can't push of that foot, it would effect his whole game plan.
I don't understand the Colby hate, he probably knocked out around 200,000-500,000 people in one night from watching that last fight😂😂😂
At his worst night Leon couldn't finish him.
Leon didn’t unload the gas tank, he was fine peppering him without getting the finish.
Colby broke his foot in the first minute
colby vs masvidal in power slap would be cool
Leon took Colby to the 7th lair of hair
Saying paddy looked good in his last fight is like saying he doesn’t get fat in two weeks.
Is this gonna be the new ‘five’ map if so we are winning
"That's stuff u get fckd up in the parking lot for" or in colbys situation, a steakhouse 😂
Colby felt the pressure of his daddy trump being there
He lost two title fights and shit his pants at the possibility of losing again. The was a performance anxiety loss because he could have just wrestled to a win.
How many days are not Tony’s day
Didn’t Colby break his foot in the beginning of that fight?
Colby is the type of dude to throw a fight.....because he's in debt. Only way I would describe why a person doesn't look like themselves or not give it there best
those are some shit odds to me throwb
