The 'Hunter of Legends', Curtis Blades is coming off victories over legendary heavyweightsMark Hunt e alistair overeem in this year. Your focus is now on the winner of Stipe Miocic e Daniel Cormier who fight at UFC 226, on July 07th. In an interview with the website “BJPenn.com”, 'Razor' expressed his interest in facing the winner of the UFC champions' duel.
Blaydes posted on his Twitter on Wednesday (20), “#legendhunter #measureanother #takethebelt”.
“They’re both great in their own ways, they’re both really good on their feet, they’re both good wrestlers. [My] only advantage would be that I would have a weight advantage over them and probably a reach advantage as well. I was thinking about New Years Eve in Vegas. I think I deserve to be the champion,” explained Curtis.
The Legend Hunter believes that the winner of the clash of champions will be the North American, Miocic. “I’ll take Stipe. I like his kickboxing, his footwork, his conditioning. I know DC is a good wrestler, but Stipe is a better wrestler. I think it has many more advantages. I think he gets the finish – but probably in the fourth round, maybe in the fifth,” he said.
In addition to the two victories over Hunt and Overeem, Blaydes also has victories over alexey oleynik, Daniel Omielańczuk and Cody East. His last and only defeat was in his UFC debut, with a technical knockout to Francis Ngannou.
