#UFC299 #CurtisBlaydes
Everytime he speaks I like Blaydes more, Good luck on Saturday!!!
Blaydes is cool dude man 👊
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
First time I'm watching his interview and just realised
I stutter also so it’s great seeing him circumnavigate it on the biggest stage
He knock out almeida too
Respect to Curtis. Solid dude all the way around.
I always like Blaydes
Humble Giant!

Heavyweight Merab 🔥🔥
a merab without gas
@@user-by3jz8sp1fMakes zero sense. Most takedowns at heavyweight but go on😂🤷♂️
@@ColbyChaos30 0 submission
@@user-by3jz8sp1f Your boy almeida got slept stay salty boyo😁🤣😂🥴
Blaydes will beat him so easily. 2R tko by Curtis
Damn youre a psychic
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.
Remember that one post fight interview where he was so tired, it looked like he was about to pass out. It's still one of the funniest things I've seen in my entire life.
Which card?
i think it was after he fought volkov @@ab1nash815

@@ab1nash815 It was when he fought Volkov.
lets go curt!
Like the heavyweight Merab without the gas tank🤣 I love Curtis
Curtis is right and he's gonna prove it Saturday. He's the nightmare match up for Jalton.. A heavyweight who can actually wrestle and is just as strong as him
Jailton Almeida is gonna finish him.. and he is gonna make it look easy.
@@dreadnaughttactical No way bro even if he does it's not gonna look or be easy
@@dreadnaughttactical he couldnt finish lewis, how you think hes gonna finish blaydes that confidently lmao
Honestly I thought almedia is gonna win but you were right...
@@dreadnaughttactical 🤣
Legend😂🇺🇲
I think Curtis has more ways to win and it’s going to be interesting to see the difference in grappling, I favor Curtis in this matchup and he is the bigger guy
lol you haven’t seen jailton recently… he’s huge and will destroy Curtis
@@troyharris1364 Blaydes will have a 30lb weight advantage. If Blaydes gets him on his back with that 30lb weight advantage and his top notch top control...Almeida is gonna be truly fckued.
@troyharris1364 This comment didn't age too well did it?
@@elcucuy9654 haha i cashed out with Sean, Michel & mvp so I really don’t care.. I did eat my words tho
@@troyharris1364 You made money, that's all that matters lol
Oh Lord!
HW Merab is a pretty good comparison
Let’s go curt
Super nice guy.. Hope he will beat jailton
My comparison is Kamaru usman lite
curtis fuckin blaydes is the guy
He's not that guy.
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.
i hope blaydes tko almeida the cuddler
Without the gas tank though 😅😅😅
Comparison to Merab is awesome 😊
😂
Lets not forget that Curtis was favorite vs Francis in two fights!
Bro is not Merab of the heavyweights. One takedown in his last 5 fights. Not even close.
It’s a fucking joke calm down 😂
@@jmohan7530definitely was not joking. He said without the gas tank, that’s what made them laugh.
@@Adrian-xz3qtCry harder. Curtis is going to lose as usual 😊
@@paulkendrick4153 good I want Jailton to win.
@@Adrian-xz3qt 👍 🔥
i never watch or heard curtis talk before.. is he ok? this how he always is? no disrespect
Studder
Has always had a stutter
I thought it was the cte at first ngl. Appreciate y'all for letting me know, thanks!
How does Almeida win this fight?
Curtis is underrated and Jailton isnt that good as advertised
Jailton is a nasty grappler and super athletic both guys are really good for big guys
Who was more impressive against Derrick Lewis?
@@TMeek94styles make fights though, Almeida won’t be able to lay on blaydes for 15 minutes like he did with Lewis
Jailton is even better than advertised.. stop judging him off of his last fight - Jailton Almeida is probably the most well rounded fighter in the whole entire Heavyweight division! - There is NO Heavyweight that can beat Jailton Almeida on the ground.. not Curtis Blaydes.. not Tom Aspinall.. NO ONE! On Sat night the world is going to see that Jailton Almeida is the future of the UFC Heavyweight division!
@@dreadnaughttactical Most well rounded? Jailton has zero striking.
He has a Studder but its ok talk with your hands
I definitely wouldn't be making fun of him😂
End the hype
He beats almeida and there's no doubt in my mind about it
If you are that sure.. bet the house on it. I am betting that Jailton Almeida will FINISH Curtis Blaydes.
@@dreadnaughttacticalyikes lol
Today Junior !
Poor Curtis.. Jailton is gonna do you dirty son.. you are getting FINISHED on Sat night bro!
Oops
Blaydes got alot to probe here also, he was horrible against Pavlovich, but I think he beats Jailton
Curtis has 60lbs on him....60lbs. That's a medium child. I can't see him losing to a grappler with a medium child on his back
Lmao
Not 60 but around 20
It's like every time he gets knocked out he stutters more and more
Since when did Curtis have this much of a stutter?
He has always had a stutter, it does seem to be a little worse right now. Not sure why but that's how stutters work, stress or other factors can exacerbate it
He's always had it, sometimes worse than others!
Oh okay, yeah I thought I might’ve remembered a little stutter but not to this degree. That’s cool tho !
Curtis “J-J-Jailton Almeida is D-D-Demian Maia of Heavyweight D-D-Division” Blaydes
Please say that to his face, tough guy. I'm sure he's accomplished more than you ever will🤡
Hope he beats the black belt out of Almeida.
Jailton is gonna beat the stutter out of Curtis!
@@dreadnaughttactical🎉
The lowest hairline in business.
He’s got a threehead.
he seem, like he suffering from cte
Cause he got a stutter ??😂MMA fans are special ed
Studder
He has always had a stutter..
Dont bet on Blaydes. I warned u. Almeida will coast after the 0.5 mark
Wrong😂😂😂
@@Whit3WolfXArcadia facts. I got the bet slip to prove it
Lmao sleep like chicken 😂
@@Binmusu casual he never went out
@@gowatchufc8635 ref save his ass A few more punch and he aint gonna see his brazilian fan ever again
most overrated hw of all time
