Wait, it broke?

Don't copy the image to attach it, copy the url of the image itself. Then in Sherdog, click on the image button in the post toolbar, then click on the link button to change it to URL upload.

That help?

Bro, thank you!

His character doesnt have anywhere to go after getting dominated like that.

At least he kept up with Usman. It seemed like a fight that was possible for him to win.

Here he talked so much shit,and didnt do shit once the bell rang. Hollow drum,only worth to be beaten upon.

Bad performance by Colby but the SIG strikes were almost even and he had nearly double the total strikes with more control time.
Not saying he won by any means but you can't win those metrics and be "Dominated" - especially when you were never hurt/dropped.

"lashed out" <Lmaoo><Lmaoo><Lmaoo>

I honestly have no idea wtf is going on and can't bring myself to care.

Fitting for someone that came straight out of a comic book…..

He landed a single significant strike in the last round. 54 shots landed and only one was considered significant.

Leon ended up grappling with him, just to get him to stop running and he still did nothing.

He ended up grappling with him just to stop him from running?
Are you listening to yourself lol

Did you see the round that Leon took him down after Colby was doing his best running man impression? Colby only had success when Leon chose to exchange with him on the ground. Leon stood in striking range the entire fight and Colby just kept circling away. He ran all fight.

Colby only took top position when Leon attacked a submission. That last round was because Leon went for a submission instead of just working back up like he had every other round. He did that because Colby was giving him so little on the feet, he felt in a good enough position to grapple with him to try and get a finish of some sort. Colby made that fight crap by refusing to engage and did even less when he finally got top position. He finished that round punching Leon's thighs for most of his total strikes.

54 of his total strikes were in the 5th round and only 1 (a body kick) was considered a sig strike. The majority of those 5th round strikes were to Leon's thighs...

Totality of strikes is assessed lower than damage/impact. Leon outstruck him, landed big enough shots that Colby spent the whole time running and in his best round, barely won because he landed no significant offence.

Leon stood in front of him all fight, landed much bigger shots, threatened with submissions and a takedown for fun, whilst his opponent ran for 4.25 rounds. That decision was more dominant than most of Jon Jones 48-47s over his career.

He ran his mouth, got the big Trump go-get-em-boy, then he showed everyone that he doesn't have it anymore.

He did have it once. That Lawler thig was unbelievable.

Dude's done now. Needs to shut up and go get a job.

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

Eek. Dominated? Learn what words mean

Fight was very one sided.

I never said Colby even remotely won the fight. Just didn't get dominated.

He was definitely dominated in that fight. Leon's strikes actually had an impact. Coby's were as he was moving back and getting countered. Sure he didn't get finished, but at no stage was he actually in that fight. It's really hard to actually land impactful offence on someone running backwards in the massive octagon.

Leon outstruck, outwrestled Colby and had him in 2 submissions. It was just like the Diaz fight with Leon dominating him except for a single short sequence at the end of the fight.

Both fights were still dominating performances for Leon.
