Rumored Leon Edwards plans to call out the winner of Strickland vs Du Plessis after UFC 296!

[OldBoy91]

i would honestly be more excited if a champ came out and said "i wanna beat the consecutive defense record for my weight class".

Aspinall said that.

Granted, there's no way in hell he's ever making 205.

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

He had a contender coming up, but he can’t remember the name I guess

 

[mraa1]

Jesus Lord Almighty pls no

 

[Elvis.]

Fuck that , there are plenty of worthy challenges for him at welterweight, the angle here is so obvious, I want a big money “super fight” where my world title isn’t at stake

 

[Blastbeat]

Aspinall said that.

Granted, there's no way in hell he's ever making 205.

205? he wouldnt have to. if Aspinall can beat Stipe's 3 consecutive title defenses at HW he's put himself in the running for GOAT HW in the UFC.

205? he wouldnt have to. if Aspinall can beat Stipe's 3 consecutive title defenses at HW he's put himself in the running for GOAT HW in the UFC.

Yeah. My point is he couldn't go for champ champ status even if he wanted to. So he's forced to go for the title defense record.

 

[Matt Brown's Elbow]

Bro has like 3 kos out of 13 wins in the UFC but yeah he's totally going to knock Colby out

 

[jitzmonkey]

This man is talking sh-t (getting attention) and seeking greatness.

I hate him.

 

[Pepy]

No, two defenses isn’t enough. Still has plenty of work left. Belal and Rakhmonov are right there. Brady, Garry, Maddalena all potentially there soon. Tired of this champ champ stuff. If they’re going to do it, needs to be reserved for a very select few.

It was fun when we were talking about GSP vs Anderson Silva, but this now is just silly

 

[Spiderbite]

Sure, why not?

Islam can fight for the interim WW title while Leon gets his title shot at MW and Volk can fight for the LW interim.

As a matter of fact, we should only run interim titles and whoever has the most, can fight MacGregor for red panty night, then retire.


In fairness to Volk though, at least he has more than a single defense.

 

[xhaydenx]

Leon's logic is Usman cleaned the dvision and i beat Usman so i don't need to beat other WW's. DDP has the same logic lol

Such crap logic. Usman's wins don't count for his lol.

What happens if he does go up and beat Strickland? That div was cleaned out by Izzy, so Sean shouldn't have to face any of them, so Leon wouldn't either?

 

[flektarn]

Wasn't that long ago this guy wasn't liked for being inactive and never going for the finish. Not a good look when you have Belal and Shavkat itching for their shot.

 

[Adamant]

Should Leon beat Colby, Dana will probably give him the MW title shot thus fucking over Khamzat AGAIN.

 

[Tapatio]

But Colby has that forever Dana White Privelege

 

[LiQuiD42]

Another double champ... How exciting and original.

 

[Motivated BJ Penn]

He needs to fight Shavkat, Belal rematch and maybe Burns before even thinking about it.

 

[aali14]

As much as I hate this new era of divas refusing to defend their f*cking titles, I'm actually gonna enjoy watching Leon do the callout and get absolutely no response by the UFC whatsoever

 

[Bork Neslar]

I don't like this guy.

 

[jeskola]

O'Malley working his way up to HW

 

[Luvhawky]

They would be my favorite champion immediately... Hands down ..

And that'll make them the GOAT of that division


Divisional GOAT

1) win title
2) Defend said title more times then any previous champion did agaisnt ranked opponents.
3) that is all

Would it make you start buying their PPVs, if you currently stream them?
