Part of it probably was his bigotry. He had said previously he would never fight izzy because he wants two Nigerians as champions.

Especially if the white fighter was just like usman but only white, where the white fighter said things like he wants other white fighters to be champ or that he’s a white brother. Pretty sure usman would have hated that guy and not been so gracious in defeat. Even tho that guy would be exactly like usman in his bigotry, just bigotry for a different race

@@rogue0919 if a white fighter showed humbleness in defeat saying he respects the other fighter cause he’s white like me, that would raise a red flag in my mind. Imagine if stipe lost to a white fighter, not Francis, and then said he respects him and recognizes he’s white, like me, that would raise red flags on stipe. You would wonder why stipe brought up the fact the other fighter is also white. And why that matters that he’s the same ethnicity. You might not call stipe a racist for that, but it would at least raise a red flag as to why stipe cares about the other fighter also being white. That wouldn’t necessarily be racism which is superiority to other races. It wouldn’t necessarily be that. But it would be bigotry, rooting for your own race. And I’m not even saying bigotry is wrong. Most people are probably bigoted in one way or another. And bigotry doesn’t equal racism. You can prefer your own without hating the other. I’m not saying in-group preference is wrong. I’m just saying if a white fighter was openly showing racial in-group preference, it would raise red flags in most people’s minds.

It’s simple really from a fighters mindset. The cameras and event ordeal make it more hectic but Usman knows he won’t contest for the belt while Leon’s champ probably ever again. Also Usman won’t go up in weight I don’t see it happening, so really he has to accept he’s just going to be a title fight gatekeeper for a year or two. Crazy sequence change from being champ to that, probably regrets the words he was saying about all the champion business with the UFC being the champ entails. Bet he will miss it 20/20 hindsight

Thank you to both gentleman we all appreciate Y'all so much

He's a true champion Warrior I gave him my respect🙌

Not a big fan of him personally but he was a solid champ. He fought as often as he could, whoever they put in front of him, and his fights were exciting. Both those fights with Colby were incredible. Happy for Leon, but congrats to Kamaru on a solid run and ability to handle the losses well.

I think his only boring fight as champ was Masvidal v Usman 1. Aside from that, every single fight was electric and entertaining from start to finish. He has no need to hang his head low, because he achieved every MMA’s fighters dream. When it was his time, he was unstoppable, the pound for pound #1 fighter in the world, undefeated in the UFC, and considered one of the greatest of all time. I feel for Usman but at the same time I’m happy for Edwards. Father Time beats us all.

2 things: Kamaru won that fight and Fiziev won his. Both fought walking forward, cage control, taking risks and doing overall more. Leon was passive all night and Gaethje was on wobbly legs more than twice. Stupid judges.

Respect for Usman! What a legend! He’s one of the greats.

Luv this!! No beef just a belt, a position and the dollars!!

You will remain a champion even without the belt, thank you the respect and sportsmanship you display. Congratulations to Leon
