Less power than Lewis but he’s better at distance management and countering. I think blaydes has to be really careful he doesn’t get hit with an uppercut when he goes for takedowns. That’s what Lewis was doing and it worked exceptionally wellBlaydes can win easily, or Roz can knock him the fuck out.
Was the same fight vs Derrick Lewis. Roz is the better striker but probably a bit less power (I think is fair to say)
HW is pretty sad if a guy is ranked #6 and has no wrestling, no BJJ and above average standup with big power.
You either should beat him handily in standup or take it to the ground. It's called MMA for a reason.
DC would maul Rozen same as he did Lewis or Gane that decided to stand but beat Rozen with ease.
Blaydes pretty handily. Rozenstruik takedown defense isn't that goof and Curtis is probably the best wrestler in the heavyweight division.

No doubt.Who would ever imagine paying 12k guaranteed to get brain damage at the absolute premiere level of the sport wouldn't attract suitably young, talented athletes to the game?
Athletes that size with options don't choose MMA because they are paying peanuts of the revenue coming in. Risk -vs- reward is totally out of wack. This is why fighter pay is so important, its holding back the quality of the sport.
I'm thinking it's either a clear-cut UD for Blaydes or a KO by Rozenstruik. I'm going with Blaydes by UD.Seems like this fight is flying under the radar. I am quite looking forward to it. How do you see it going?
Does Blaydes wrestlefuck or does Jair catches him and puts the lights out? I say the former.
Jairzhino is so gun shy. I hope he’s more aggressive instead of waiting and getting taken diwn
No idea why Rozenstruik took this fight. It makes me feel like he knows something we don't. But unless he catches Blaydes coming in at some point, Blaydes easily wins a UD or wins by 3rd round tko.
It’s a toss up. I would have said Blaydes easily, but then he got caught by Lewis. And I think rozen is capable of catching him as well. I’m also interested to see if blaydes is capable of closing the distance for a TD
