Leon Edwards shook up the mixed martial arts world, knocking out Kamaru Usman with a stunning head kick late in the fifth round to become the new UFC welterweight champion Saturday night in the main event of UFC 278 in Salt Lake City.

The knockout came at 4 minutes, 4 seconds of a fight that Usman had largely dominated.

Edwards snapped Usman's 15-fight winning streak.

The fight was a rematch of a December 2015 bout, which Usman won by unanimous decision. Edwards has won 11 straight fights since that loss to Usman.

USMAN BECAME TOO OVERCONFIDENT.
HE WAS WINNING THE FIGHT WITH LESS THAN A MINUTE TO GO. MOVE AROUND AND ALLOW LEON TO CHASE YOU. HE STOOD IN FRONT OF HIM TO CHALLENGE HIM.

BIG MISTAKE

Him and Joshua should come back and vote Obi

Watched it live...
Happened like a flash... I couldn't believe it
My brain couldn't process it. Seeing the Nigerian nightmare go out like that... When he's won all round with less than 2mins to go.

That's mma mehn! So unpredictable
At just a tinkle of an eye, a guy is slept into shadow realm for good.

I hope they offer him an instant rematch though. Khamzat Chimaev be dancing now

Ok

BIG MISTAKE

Usman has always stood in front of all his opponents to brawl because of his reliance on his raw power but it didn't work out tonight.

less than a minute and you wan still attack.

had the 2-4 round already in check.

just dance around make the omo boy chase you, you dey still go do attack.
