UFC 286 ‘Fight Motion’: Ludicrous London highlights in super-slow motion

·1 min read

The UFC’s return to London earlier this month might not have been as finish-happy as a year ago, but there was no shortage of highlights.

UFC 286, which took March 18 at The O2 in London, featured one of England’s favorites, welterweight champion Leon Edwards, in his first title defense – which happened to be a trilogy rematch with former champ Kamaru Usman. Edwards retained the title with a majority decision – and did so despite losing a point for a fence grab.

His win, once again as an underdog, looks even more impressive when seen through the eyes of the UFC’s super-slow motion cameras in the promotion’s regular pay-per-view “Fight Motion” video highlights piece.

Check out the super-slow motion video highlights from the event, including Edwards-Usman, Justin Gaethje’s Fight of the Night win over Rafael Fiziev, and bonus-winning stoppages from Gunnar Nelson anad Jake Hadley.

Check it out above.
