Really annoyed he’s given that cnut even a chance to fake celebrate and lie post fight
Shavkat vs Leon is mouthwatering. Both excellent strikers and grapplers. Just 2 really decent all-round mixed martial artists.Belal not invited to the octagon post fight.
UFC probably finding a way to spin it so Khamzat or Shavkat to get the next shot
It's impressive how he can keep up the crap talk 24/7 and not get tired. It must be exhausting. Feel bad for him because without it he'd have no attention. Terrible performance“I don’t have a scratch on me” with two bleeding cuts on his nose and forehead.
I'm ok with most trash talk if the performance backs it up. This performance was pathetic. I really wanted Leon to KO him.It's impressive how he can keep up the crap talk 24/7 and not get tired. It must be exhausting. Feel bad for him because without it he'd have no attention. Terrible performance
After coming up short twice against prime Usman, who at the time looked unbeatable at Welter, I really thought Colby would throw the kitchen sink at Edwards. Last chance saloon, Edwards much less of an intimidating monster than Usman…..it really was all geared up for an all-out assault.I'm ok with most trash talk if the performance backs it up.

Disappointed Leon didn’t break him and leave him laid out. Colby was terrified; very pleased Edwards kept his emotions in check.Well @Fortitude pleased that you were right.
Expected miles more from Colby. They need to get him the feck off the roster. Not even arsed to talk about the fight afterwards. Just a meme
Agreed. It nearly cost him against Nate a few fights ago.Leon has a distinct focus issue to work on before the next round of challengers roll round. He has a tendency to switch off after all the hard work is done, lulling himself into a false security that the fight is over and that he can switch to cruise control. He’s worked on so many of his weaknesses, but that one is not good for a champion vs hungrier and better opponents than the likes of Colby.
Can’t see him getting to ‘jobs done’ stage against ShavkatLeon has a distinct focus issue to work on before the next round of challengers roll round.

I think there's some sort of transformation when an MMA fighter becomes a caricature of the character they were playing and you start to wonder if they were ever really pretending. Maybe I'll call it the McGregor zone.
Colby heartbreak
He would run his mouth even if he got KO.Frustrating that Colby didn't get his clock cleaned and can still continue to somehow talk shit, but dominate from Leon.
Can't imagine Colby ever getting back to another title shot which is satisfying, losing 3 now and putting in a performance like that he's going to have to go through contenders in their prime to get there and he's never proven he can do that.
Shavkat-Colby over 5 rounds next would please me, I'm almost certain he'd get finished and then what would the excuse be.
Dana said Colby looked old and slow (or something similar) in his post fight presser and more or less blamed him for taking 18 months off, which is usually an ominous sign for his future fight opportunities, especially at 35.Frustrating that Colby didn't get his clock cleaned and can still continue to somehow talk shit, but dominate from Leon.

GSP was a huge drawMMA is built around the fighters being cnts. Sells tickets. Look how Mighty Mouse ended up being nice
He said he just signed a new deal. Regardless of whether he looked slow and old, he'll still capture attention and views fighting, which is all the UFC care about.Dana said Colby looked old and slow (or something similar) in his post fight presser and more or less blamed him for taking 18 months off, which is usually an ominous sign for his future fight opportunities, especially at 35.
Yeah, he just wont be featured in title fights anymore. Bilal, Shavkhat and Usman will be in line first.He said he just signed a new deal. Regardless of whether he looked slow and old, he'll still capture attention and views fighting, which is all the UFC care about.
Of course, as I said already, I highly doubt he'll get back there. The fact he dismissed Shavkat - which is a fight that if he wins puts him back in the title picture -- and called out the guy he just beat instead shows he isn't prepared to fight these up-and-coming contenders and would rather try and pick up a few easier paydays as he enters the final chapter of his career.Yeah, he just wont be featured in title fights anymore.

Hopefully not bare knuckle where a fight with Mike perry might actually kill him.The UFC need to stop booking Ferguson for fights. He refuses to retire, but he’s destroying himself and shredding his legacy; at the current rate, he’ll be remembered more as meme than a potential Khabib killer. The guy is going to be a vegetable down the road; pretty sure he’ll just switch to any organisation that will prolong his humiliation; almost certain he’d do that bare knuckle nonsense if it came to it.
