been nothing short of a buzs saw just going through guys at a rate that not anyone could have expected what a fantastic fighter we get to watch every time we see h on in the op and of course many people hearken back to the Gilbert Burns fight in 2022 the consensus fight of that year in which chimaya was challenged and still Rose to the occasion we'll see how he fares time [Applause] yes he is the reigning defending Undisputed UFC welterweight champion Leon Rocky Edwards obviously there weren't many people picking him to beat Kamal Usman at UFC 27 but that fight was scheduled for 25 minutes he needed all of them he produced one of the greatest highlights in UFC history he did he needed 24 minutes and 30 seconds in order to become the champion but he never gave up on himself it seemed as though everything was trending in the wrong direction and he got the job done Leon Edwards is a phenomenal fighter he's very well-rounded and he's real big for the weight yes and you see his physicality come into play in that first round against Kamar Usman taking him down and controlling him on the ground right but tonight he has a different challenge he doesn't have the guy that brings all the accolades he has a young hungry lion that's looking to knock him off his throne and we will see how Leon handles this challenge but of course increased eyeballs on Theon Edwards given what he was able to accomplish in becoming the man at 170 [Applause] lbs our tail of the tape for this highly anticipated welterweight fight all right to get us started with the official introductions here is

really starting to do some appreciable damage to his opponent's lead leg kamach Chimay gets touched by that kick [Applause] there nice job to get inside and get the single colar tie oh good combination on the feet DC there from Leon Rocky Edwards underappreciated no more and if he doesn't have the respect he so craves from the fan base he certainly has from his fellow R gets the single leg Tak down all right so there's the early taked down for the decorated Grappler exactly what he wanted to do tonight exactly what he needed to do if he's going to want to win this fight you got to put this down on his back early and you got to put him on his back off all right so that calf is starting to bruise up we'll keep an eye on it he's got to check down because if he doesn't his leg is going to be so he's not going to be able to move he's going to be in real trouble all right opens the guard now stacked guard just over two minutes to go Edwards gets back up again nicely done straight punch that is [Applause] useful oh well timed with that team trying to land the elbow there to no avail head kick attempted but both Fighters throwing heat now beautiful leg kick lands changes levels now DC oh man he was in a single got to a high R big slam take down that was H crazy accuracy and efficiency with these ground and pound strikes here and if you're the opponent you got to intelligently defend or the referee's going to stop you got to defend but you can see him now starting to gain posture and the intensity at which he's throwing these ground strikes is starting to improve it's starting to elevate because he knows that he can get the Finish final seconds of the round now he's got good body position yep osters up and lands a brutal strike to the Head 5 minutes in the right now we take a look back at some of the action in that you ready to fight ready round two underway all right next round is now underway DC any major takeaways after the previous five minutes

great play mixing up his attack he didn't stay the cour he mixed it up he went High when his opponent thought he was going low and now he's got him hurt very badly and he's back to his feet good side for him there well his opponent seemed to be stunned to a significant extent but was able to recover and almost like he let him off the hook kind of let him off the hook he needed to really put his foot on the gas to try to find that fin three minutes to go so a much different approach for him here in this second round he was a little bit tentative in round one little bit of a Feeling out process now he has clearly found his rhythm found the range we'll see if he can continue with more activity here in round two Hook is there again we got a fight folks strong outside leg kick all right
