Can Lewis “just stand up” with Blaydes on top? That will determine who wins.

Black Beast gonna put hands on Curtis Blaydes worse than he did to Travis Browne.

BB has seemed pretty explosive in escaping from the bottom at times. I look for him to do the same here, enough to get the TKO.
I could be wrong, I was once before.

Blaydes via UD

Lewis got controlled like nobodys buisness against Latifi whose like 30 pounds lighter then him and dosnt have a super impressive record in the UFC. whenever the round started Lewis threw ridiculous knees and Latifi caught them every time and threw him onto the canvas getting top control with ease . only reason Lewis "won" is cause Texas mma judges smoke crack . Blaydes is gonna make him his bitch . Fan favorite fighter getting owned by one of the most unpopular incoming haha . Not a fan of either though tbh .

The two ultimate skill sets. The best wrestling in HW vs the Derick Lewis “just stand up” school of grappling

People underestimate Lewis because of the fluke loss to JDS. Black Beast beats JDS 9 out of 10 times.

Nah wasn't a fluke at the time and I'd pick Lewis in a rematch for sure.

 

[TITS]

Why do they want this fight to happen so badly? It fell through once before, just let them fight someone else.

 

[TJ177]

Nothing that BB does can really surprise me at this point.

At various points in almost every match he gets caught fumbling around and seemingly on the verge of getting subbed, yet also becomes more dangerous as the fight goes on when the other guy gets gassed and can't get out of the way of a bomb quick enough.

 

[faustian]

Wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to see Beast KO Blaydes. BB is pretty underrated imo

When this was made last time, Lewis was a giant underdog. Definitely worth betting on, imo. If it's that bad again.

ZZZ

Hoping for a Lewis miracle. He's going to need it. This has lay and pray written all over it.

 

[joeson]

This will end up looking like DC vs Lewis, except much, much more boring and there will be no submission. Lewis will get taken down, he’ll get up and get taken down again, and again and again, until I wonder why I ever watch Curtis Blaydes fight.

Hope I’m wrong and Blaydes gasses, allowing Lewis to knock him cold.

Five rounds is a long time for Curtis to have to wrestle The Beast. Lewis will find that chin sooner or later.

Lots of double legs, I like Blades by UD

However, if Lewis is over +325 I might make a stimulus wager.

 

[Aurelian]

Blaydes wins a 3 round fight. Not so sure about a 5 rounder though. I got Black Beast by KO in the championship rounds.
