  1. Y’all remember when the belt was avoiding Leon for years and everything wasn’t going accordingly as planned? Now Leon dethroned Usman from being the top of the world. Unbelievable.

  2. I’m happy for him I think he could beat Colby but after Colby the monsters are next so enjoy the belt but let’s be real here Burns khamzat would snatch that belt, and even Colby regardless what I think!

  3. I am really happy for Leon, he earned it. However, just seems like he is showing cowardice and trying to avoid Colby. His lame reasoning, Colby has been inactive for 1.5 years. Hello, Jon Jones, inactive for 3 years, GOAT. Fighters don't get to say who they fight next, otherwise UFC becomes Boxing with 2 boxers who the public is desperate to see fight, never fight or fight years later when they are beyond their prime. Great Champions fight whoever the UFC puts in front of them. Masvidal can't wrestle and you are afraid of Colby's wrestling, IMO. Colby beat Masvidal convincingly, how do you put Masvidal ahead of Colby? Don't be a coward. You are not the king. Defend your title against the best for 5 or 6 times, than you can call yourself the king, not now.

  4. He does NOT wanna fight Colby lol he KNOWS he loses that fight. The problem for Leon with him talking about HE will decide who he fights . . . nah Uncle Dana done said Leon vs Colby 100% so, Leon, you might as well start training camp lol

  5. Leon is spot on about fake act Colby. Colby already got his 15 minutes of fame twice and he lost both times. He hasn't fought in forever, haven't fought anybody in the top 5. And yet Dana and the complete joke that the UFC is just let the guy walk straight into a third title shot. For no reason at all. At the very least they should have made a number one contender fight but nope. Can't have that. Meanwhile Leon himself had to work from scratch to even get his second shot at the title. This will be Colby's third shot and zero work had to be put in for it.
