Like Blaydes said before, this fight will end up happening at some point. And he is looking forward to it.

I believe Blaydes will take Reem and solidify himself as a top contender which will make the rematch happen sooner than later.

Blaydes on his last fight broke the record for most takedowns on a HW bout, against 270 lbs Mark Hunt. So clearly Blaydes wrestling is a threat to Ngannou.

Who do you think wins?

i think Ngannou will , i think he learned alot from his fight against Stipe , that sort of experience ( even though he lost ) makes you a better fighter in the long run , i think he beats Blaydes worse then last time.
 
Toss up imo, blaydes certainly has the wrestling to tire ngannou and beat him, but I don't have the same faith in his striking as i do in stipes. In a three rounder I see ngannou winning a decision or 2nd-3rd round tko
 
It's fun and trendy to doubt Ngannou now that he's been "exposed" by Stipe, I'm guilty of it myself. But I think that loss to Stipe is going to really push Ngannou to become better. I want winner of Blaydes v Overeem to fight the winner of Black Beast and Ngannou.

When Ngannou returns, it will be a great improvement from the last Predator we saw

Well of course it was the worst Blaydes looked .... he lost , however i see Ngannou improving alot from his loss to Stipe , Ngannou at least went the distance where guys like Werdum , Overeem , Arlovski didn't even last round 1 , Ngannou is still very dangerous.

Why is everybody counting out Overeem? Blaydes was out struck and stuff by hunt until hunt gassed, Overeem is both a better striker and defensive wrestler than hunt.

Hunt did not stuff Blaydes, he was taken down immediately.

Hunt was able to stuff the majority of his takedowns in the first round and even almost scored a finish. My memory might be a bit foggy on this fight but hunt was very competitive in this fight until he gassed which I don't see being a problem for Overeem.

Your recollection of the fight is awful. In the first round not much happened until Hunt rocked Blaydes. Blaydes then took him down and dominated him for the rest of the fight.
 
Ngannou, you know he’s working on developing his TDD and ground game since that Miocic beating.

Ngannou is just a special athlete and I think he’ll be too fast and strong for Blaydes.
