Leon took that first round. Cowboy still a slow starter. #UFCSingapore

Cowboy starting to land in flurries, but Leone doesn't seem fazed at all. #UFCSingapore

Cowboy's plan of drowning him in "deep water" doesn't seem to be working. Leon looks fresh and untouched. Cowboy is bloody and frustrated. #UFCSingapore

Happy that fellow European Edwards picking up a win but bummed that Cowboy lost. Would’ve liked to see Edwards try and go more for a finish though. Felt he was cruising a bit too much for my liking but really showed some great attack’s and counters as well. Congrats!#UFCSingapore
