“Terrific” UFC Champion Lose Title After Brief Domination: “That Ended”- Donald Trump Left Surprised
The welterweight category was rocked by the British champion’s triumph. The MMA fighter’s feat astounded both spectators and analysts. Against all odds, Edwards emerged from the venue with the UFC championship belt. But he didn’t miss the chance to criticise his detractors.
It appears that MMA is so unexpected that even a former President can be caught off guard. In a recent interview with Matt Serra and Jim Norton for UFC Unfiltered, Trump went into great detail on Leon Edwards’ displeasure with Kamaru Usman.

Trump said, “This sport is interesting like I watched Usman and… [he is] a fantastic fighter and I watched that fight [against Leon Edwards], and he was essentially undefeated and pretty much unbeatable, and he goes into the fight, and he was winning that fight by soo much. It was over, and that one kick and it was indeed over… So you never really know.”
“I was a little surprised, and I give credit to his opponent too because in his next fight… he was fairly dominant, and I was a little surprised to see that… You never know what’s going to happen [in MMA]. The kicks and the punches, right? The kicks and the punches.”
Edwards is awaiting his next opponent after successfully defending his belt against Usman at UFC 286. Colby Covington is being promoted as the following in line, and a fight at UFC 295 on November 11 at Madison Square Garden is being considered by the organisation.
