Blaydes is not a headliner and doesn't belong anywhere near a 5 round fight

but he stands a decent chance of beating either stipe or DC. hard to say he's not a headliner.
Both those guys have better wrestling credentials, mma wrestling, and a huge striking advantage.

he is aggressive, today was an exception.
 
No he doesn't.

Volkov was stuffing him by the 4th round and Stipe and DC actually have wrestling, cardio and striking.

They'd keep it standing and tune him up on the feet.
blaydes could potentially outstrike either one. his boxing is no joke now. to say he doesn't have a chance is stupid.

LOL HOW????

There’s levels to this and Cormiers wrestling makes his mediocre creds look minuscule. He has pleb tier cardio and Stipe would probably punch a hole through his head.

We already saw what Ngannou did to him catching basic underhooks to counter his basic body lock... he looks a lot better than he is because he fights in a sham of a division, However DC and Stipe are the only legit fighters and he ain’t touching them.

DC absolutely does not have a 'huge striking advantage'. his decent striking comes from threat of TD - and blaydes is the one guy in the division who might be able to stuff his TDs as well.

DC absolutely does have a clear striking advantage on Blaydes. Blaydes stand up is nearly non existent. DC's stand is sharp, crisp, and fucking quick! Also Blaydes wrestling pales in comparison to DC's. Its like comparing apples to pickup truck.
 
Herb Dean himself fall asleep and dont restart the fight on the feet
 
Have you ever seen DC fight?
apparently more times than you. when he faces someone with good striking, he looks like a drunk bum in a bar. there is nothing 'sharp, crisp or fucking quick' about it. it's incredibly overrated. like i said it's completely based on the huge threat of TD.
 
DC would sleep Blaydes standing up. How do you guys not realize this? DC is WAY faster than Blaydes is and over a decade older lmao.

Blaydes is a good wrestler in a garbade ass division with 2 elite fighters at the top and a striker that has already knocked him dead. That's what's up.

I'm having a hard time telling if you're delusional or just a fucking idiot.
 
He was fine the first three rounds, last two he was cringe to watch. Volk however could never capitalize on that deficit or only minimally.

I like Blaydes and still think he has a higher potential. Without a doubt he needs to fix a few things. Dude is 29 in the HW game so has some time.

Khabib lays the blueprint for wrestling and GNP, most simply cannot match this and likely will be sometime before they come close or do.
 
He went from beating a jds quitter to almost being finished by volkov. Cormier stipe and Francis smoke him

Honestly though, Volkov is a better fighter than JDS now
