Leon got all the skill and ability but fights way too tentatively. The Leon in the final 30 seconds is how he should fight the whole fight.

 

[RustyShackleford]

I know Dana pissed right now

Just won $10k on belal and Rodriguez parlay


BELAL REMEMBER THE MOTHER****ING DECISION MUHAMMED

I couldn’t be more blue and I will be watching Shavkat finish Belal like this.

You can transition to it, but you’d sacrifice giving up a dominant position. I’ve seen it a few times in the ufc, I believe Ilia did it on barn boy

I see, i it’s a bit risky and difficult to get into. If the RNC isn’t there might as well try the triangle.

 

[whtascene]

I'm sure Dana and a lot of fight fans are excited about Belal winning.

My Twitter has been feeding me progressive leaning mma posts. This got to be a big W for them

Was it a typical Belal snooze fest?

Gonna be a nasty one, but man you can’t count out belal after that performance. Dudes punches were straight to the point, literally. His team wasn’t playing when they mentioned canelo…. I mean belal covered great distances with those nice jabs

Shame on edwards, he pulled that peekaboo defense just to get countered by lead uppercuts from a grappler.

My homeboy that has been a fan for a long time and made most of his living betting on MMA for the past 12 years said he will probably stop watching the UFC if Belal wins.

You check in on him?

 

[boxer15]

You check in on him?

He’s been living in a villa in Bali for the past few years, he’ll survive.

 

[steevoo1]

Woooow. PFL don't even have 125

 

[xbiker47]

Assuming mokaev antics outside the cage is the reason they don’t want to resign him as well

 

[xbiker47]

Not a single question about belal at the presser

 

[spiderjericho]

Leon got all the skill and ability but fights way too tentatively. The Leon in the final 30 seconds is how he should fight the whole fight.

That’s exactly how I thought Belal could beat Leon. Did Dana said they’re going to run back Edwards/ Mohammed? Or going straight to Shavkat?

Also Dana exactly said what I thought they would say about someone like that at flyweight performed? Ya don’t put butts in seats, they don’t care. Especially at that weight class. Mans traded DJ who is the greatest flyweight for Funky Ben Askren.

Damn Mokaev must have really pissed off Dana

Dana said they not running belal/Leon back, they going in a different direction.

Yeah heard that
I’m guessing they go shavkat next

Plus Dana said he likes Garry vs Edwards more

So damn frustrating to watch. Has all the tools, is athletic as hell, but he's content to stay in one gear and never take risks no matter the situation. It almost cost him in the Nelson, Diaz, and Usman 2 fights. I don't think he stood his ground one time tonight. He looked straight lost when Belal wasn't giving him space to work his power kicks and teeps.

Belal has definitely leveled up. Added a variety of combinations to go with his already great pace, pressure, and wrestling. That triple jab setup to the uppercut that stunned Leon was beautiful.

 

[steevoo1]

Shavkat in January should be the move. JDM/Garry needs to be made for next shot around the same time. Would rather avoid any possibility of Garry and JDM losing their next fights and we end up with the same faces fighting for the title again.
