  • Props to Curtis doing media days and dealing with a speech impediment, pushing through all the questions. I hope he inspires others who struggle with similar issues. I can imagine it must be difficult. Hope Curtis wins by KO

  • About Curtis last fight he was not himself for sure meaning he was very far from being at his best. Hopefully Curtis is close to being on top of his game when he battles Almaida because I believe Ameida is very sharp at what he does in his combat style, he's built very sharp and he moves very sharp and he's got great anticipation but if Blaydes really brings his A game overall he's going to present some challenges for Almeida too no doubt. Almeida is also a well rounded heavyweight, he could strike too but very rarely he has to show it because he's so good at avoiding the strike game so he can grapple and wrestle his opponent to the ground and then has the technique to keep them there and his level changing is very good. Almeida is a unique heavyweight and the more he wins with that kind of style vs the top top all around fighters in that division the more unique it will make him. Gane and Aspinall are also unique in their way.

  • Blaydes must have forgotten about Usman. That’s the obvious comparison. Although Merab has wrestling and is a chain-wrestler like Blaydes, he doesn’t have the striking. Usman isn’t a chain-wrestler but he has both the wrestling and the striking. I’d even say Belal over Merab.
