“I had pretty good seats. So, I saw Brock show up and sit next to Dana. I knew.”
That Blaydes saw the swerve coming didn’t soften the blow at all. “I feel disrespected,” he continues, plainly.

The 27-year-old is understandably upset. He also isn’t just criticizing Lesnar’s deservedness based on his 5-3-1 career record. Blaydes is also pointing out all the ways that he finds Lesnar’s ability and skill to be lacking.
“[Lesnar] has lost two fights in a row, hasn’t fought in two years, and he’s not good. He doesn’t have a good skill-set. He’s also not a very good wrestler. People look at him and they see that he was in the NCAA finals twice and assume he is a good wrestler. He isn’t. He’s not very explosive. I’ve actually watched his college matches and he won one title 3-2. When I wrestled I didn’t win matches 3-2, I won them 18-4."
After earning a shot at UFC gold but seeing it taken away to no fault of his own, Blaydes says he doesn’t know what will be next for him. He just knows he has to speak up for himself, and that he’ll be ready for whatever or whoever steps into his path.
“I’m just freestyling it,” he admits, when asked if he knows what his next move will be. "Today, I’m saying my piece, letting people know how I feel. Tomorrow, we’ll see what happens.”
