Footage of Leon Edwards' coach losing his mind before the final round at UFC 304 goes viral

Footage of Leon Edwards' coach losing his mind ahead of the final round of his loss to Belal Muhammad has emerged.

In a rematch between the two in the main event of UFC 304 in Manchester, Muhammed produced a huge upset to beat Edwards via decision - with all three judges ruling in his favour after he dominated the contest with his wrestling.

He claimed a sixth win in a row in UFC, becoming welterweight champion and the first Palestinian to hold gold in the promotion.

In his third title defence, Edwards did not get going and suffered a third defeat inside the Octagon.

His coach Dave Lovell was frustrated with Edwards' performance and unleashed on him while he was sat in the stool.

"Do you want me to stop this f***ing fight?" he asked 'Rocky', who appeared to reply, "Shut the f*** up".

Lovell then said, "Well you f***ing go out there and win this last round, you gotta stop him Leon - you gotta throw it all at him. Come on son, come on Leon man."

Lovell's dressing down has paid off before, notably when Edwards produced the incredible head-kick to knock out Kamaru Usman and become welterweight champion.

Edwards did show more urgency and wounded his opponent but it was too little, too late.

In an interview following on from the right, Lovell revealed Edwards had some injury problems in his training camp and there were brief discussions about pulling out.

"I'm not making any kind of excuses for him, but we had a few niggles in camp," he told Submission Radio.

"His back was niggling him so he couldn't wrestle the way he really needed to offensively and defensively, you know, because of the niggle that recurred about maybe 2 or 3 times.

“Well, not taking nothing away from Belal's performance, you know he did well, he done well. The best man won on the night. But Leon will be back."
