[autotag]Leon Edwards[/autotag] became the new UFC welterweight champion in dramatic fashion this past Saturday at UFC 278 where he knocked out Kamaru Usman with 56 left in the fifth round.
After being dominated in Rounds 2, 3 and 4, Edwards was headed for certain defeat down 39-37 on all three judges’ scorecards – meaning he needed the finish in order to win, and he found it with a vicious head kick.
The outcome joins the likes of Anderson Silva over Chael Sonnen at UFC 117 and Miesha Tate over Holly Holm at UFC 196 among fights in consideration for the greatest come-from-behind victory in UFC history. But was Edwards’ win the greatest?
