Kamaru Usman, former UFC welterweight champion, praised the punch that Leon Edwards knocked him out.

"It was just a great technique. Edwards timed it perfectly. He was throwing punches to the head as the fight went on, but I blocked them all. That punch hit the bull's-eye. I'm almost thrilled with how good he was, but it happened. Champions go down and come back and show why they're champions."

Remember, Edwards knocked out Usman in the last minute of the fifth round.
