Styles make fights however if someone was gonna out wrestle and ground/pound Leon it would’ve been Usman. I don’t see Colby doing anything, Khamzat is his worst threat if he fights at WW again. Shavkat still untested.

Oh and spot on - Colby? Who's that?

Looking back at this, I truely think Tom Aspinall should have being a commentator as an option after he retires. I don’t wish his career to end quickly but injuries can shorten a fighters career extremely quickly and so I feel as though his knowledge of MMA and his genuine love for the sport makes him a good commentator. Plus he sounds extremely educated on the microphone and it just adds that extra layer of believability which any commentator desires to have.
