I'd absolutely fucking love it if Lewis knocks him out.
Unfortunately I think Blaydes will blanket his way to victory though.
He relied on that heavily against Blagoy and a few other dudes, but we've seen in the DC fight how his lack of "conventional" technique can be exploited. I see it playing the same way with Blaydes, who's a consummate wrestler/grappler in his own right.I'm not sure if Blaydes's grappling is advanced enough to deal with Lewis's high level execution of the just stand the fuck up technique, but it will be a real chess match in this regard for sure.
