Blaydes would beat both of these guys pretty effortlessly, in my opinion. Feel free to disagree.

Yea Moldavsky is really showing his limit as a small HW without powerful striking to back it but the other 2 top guys Bader and Vassell are a ton more well rounded and athletic enough to hold their own.

Bellator is now counting on Ward being able to drag an entertaining fight out of Storley to save this card, good lord.

Storley is hell bent on grinding Ward into dust.

The match making in Bellator is pure shit a lot of the time, sadly.

Honestly hope the sale rumours are actually true because that could maybe turn entertaining Bellator cards from a rarity to a consistent thing.

Bader is chinny. He gets dropped by Curtis. Vassell looks like he's been hanging with the incredible hulk lately. He might be able to knock Curtis out, but I think Blaydes can out wrestle him and he's got better hands.
 
Main event going to make it 7 decisions in a row. Can only hope Storley gets KOed
 
"I told him, lets bang baby!"
PAUSE!
"I'm pegged!"
AYO....pause!

At LHW he's been chinny but at HW he's taken some solid shots and stayed composed. I respect the opinion of Blaydes being better but I just think his jab isn't enough to dictate the range in either matchup and plus Vassall might have that size to make him uncomfortable like other heavy hitters have.
 
Yay more wrestling

With guys that big, it only takes one punch, but Curtis has shown a good chin, great wrestling and top control, along with great cardio for a Heavyweight. I think he would rightfully be the favorite.

Don't know about Vassell since he looked completely helpless against Bader on bottom, granted that was before he found some nice supplements but still.

The Fortune fight would be the best frame of reference we have to a possible Blaydes matchup, but Tyrell is dogshit compared to Curtis everywhere. Honestly the likeliest outcomes to Blaydes vs Bader/Linton is a finish for Curtis, on the feet against Ryan and some late GnP on Vassell.

Curtis is just a beast against anyone who's not one of the hardest hitters at HW.
