Rankings Show: Leon Edwards' Place Among The Eff-You All-Stars + MMA's Most Overqualified Bodyguard, Fond Farewells & More MMA Fighting

    • Sports

Leon Edwards was one of the most disrespected fighters in MMA. Now he's the man who not only did the impossible — he did it twice.
The rankings show is BACK after another crazy MMA stretch to sort through Edwards' massive win in his UFC 286 trilogy with Kamaru Usman, and much more. Co-hosts Shaun Al-Shatti and Alexander K. Lee are joined by Jed Meshew and Damon Martin to debate where Edwards ranks among the greatest reversal-of-narratives UFC champions around (11:40), where the welterweight division stands after a slew of big fights, and much more. They also hit on whether Merab Dvalishvilli's standing as MMA's most overqualified bodyguard is good or bad for the bantamweight division around (33:57), whether Muhammad Mokaev's first year in the UFC deserves a reassessment of expectations around (43:54), and pour a few out for the homies with some bittersweet farewells around (55:58).
