#UFC #ufc299
Blaydes just saved the heavyweight division. Thanks for stopping that boring clown.
Your mom bro. Your mom
What are you talking about? 🤣🤣 Just that 1 fight against Derrick Lewis was stupid boring. He was on a 6 fight finishing streak in the UFC before the Lewis fight.
@@sphixiondid you not see the first round against blaydes lmao
@@Mathis313😢
@@Ricardo0777 I saw a BJJ guy working his craft. Tire out a heavy handed puncher to submit later. Curtis just proved Almeida's gameplan was correct. Just cuz you casual asf.
As a Derrick Lewis fan, I'm so happy for Blaydes not just accepting the takedown but just going for those hammer-fists.
That’s because Curtis is a wrestler himself. But I’m more impressed with how jailton ragdolled the best wrestler in the division
@@itsAlwaysKhabibTimeanybody can lose, I’m pretty sure Jailton will be back stronger and better than he ever was.
As a Jailton fan, I’m so happy that Jailton dominated Derrick Lewis for 5 rounds. Don’t worry anybody can lose at some point. Jailton will be back 😂
@@MarcspartacusBack to putting us all to sleep
@@itsAlwaysKhabibTimeragdolled? He was put to sleep
The man proved that MMA math is a myth. No need for knees divided by spinning elbows, and finding chin. Congrats Curtis
@@darrenreddixhe also has the Guinness world record for highest ball temperature.
@@JonJonesWantsYourBuho😅😅😅😅😅❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You thought MMA math was real before this fight?
@@RayDoneRaydon I mean that's the way the betting lines are determined and most of the time, the favourite did win so it must have been true to some extent.
@@JonJonesWantsYourBuhokinda had me in the first half ngl
The Hero for all HWs
For the world
One of the most satisfying KO's in recent times. Right up there with Topuria's ko of Ryan Hall.
😂 so fcking right
@@daydreamingapparitionMMA fans are infamous scvm. The exact reason why the sport doesn't get the respect it deserves.
@@daydreamingapparition he hugged Derrick Lewis for 24 minutes, and he was doing the same thing to Blaydes. Hugging him the entire time and doing 0 damage
@@daydreamingapparitionhot take: quickly submitting low tier competition and then hugging the elite guys isn’t impressive or entertaining bud
@@GooGooGadgetHe submitted Jairzinho Rozenstruik in the first round as well. Also, you should hate Khamzat Chimaev as well
Guy just saved heavyweight division. Thank you Blaydes
Now he's going to be the next Jailton Almedia 💀
Respect to blaydes. Happy for him
Thank you so much Blaydes I am so tired of how Almeida fights
Thank Curtis Blaydes for saving us from watching 15 min of hugging
I hate the hugging 😅 it’s the worst
And for chalking my parlay 😢
@@YBGGRUBlol
Curtis saved us all from 10 more min.s of dizziness
Curtis Blaydes. I will always remember you as long as I live.
Thank you Curtis Blaydes! Hopefully we never see Almeida’s boring ass style ever again.
Just because malhadinho got 1 decision win doesn't mean he is boring,, look at his other matches he got all finishes
@@Goofy_face1he's definitely a boring fighter. He should only remain on the prelims. Hugging is not fighting.
@@darrenreddixonly the volkov imo
@@Goofy_face1His fight against Lewis was abysmal. He held him, nothing else, even when he had full mount or in a position to get a sub or Ground and pound, he just held Lewis. He was doing the same thing to Blaydes but thankfully he wasn't having it.
@@certifiedjefe5151and his fight with Hunt, Daniel, Willis and Rozenstruik
Curtis Blaydes is the most underrated UFC fighter, possibly ever. He's getting to be in that conversation of "greatest fighters never to win a belt" which is a conversation you don't want to be in, but when push comes to shove, it's better than nothing.
He is the most overrated 😂😂😂
@@Alex-Ale55He is the only fighter to have beaten Aspinall in the UFC.
@@IbrahimIbrahim-vu3zb Bro..... it s like saying Matt Hamill beat Jon Jones... How can you count a knee injury in the first 15 seconds a loss? Or better said, how can you consider that a win for Blaydes?
Still has bad fight iq like trying to stand with Pav. He needs to work on his gameplan instead of standing with strikers. That’s Lewis ko definitely messed his chin up too
@@SuperBlingCowboy It's heavyweight. It's not exactly the mecca of technique and perfection.
Shit that was satisfying
Seeing Almeidas head bounce off the canvas triggered my dopamine receptors
The best gatekeeper🔥
Gatekeeper to top 5 is still an elite
He can still be champ tho
@@AlexCS8 not to forget , gatekeeper in a hw division is not a bad thing lol
@@IbrahimIbrahim-vu3zb he only loses to people who have dynamites in their hands , maybe he has a phobia lol
@@suhailshaikh8529No phobia, just really stupid decisions, like going for the slowest possible takedown against Derrick Lewis whom he was dominating on the feet
You gotta love when a grappler gets KOed.
You're a hero Curtis ,thanks for saving us from boring HW Almeida main events
Brother played drum solo on almeida’s head. Congrats.
god is great he smiled upon the better fighter
😂
Thank you blaydes
Send Almeida to the PFL please. Somewhere that nobody cares.
Hahaha that is cruel, but I agree
Gamrot also, plz
@@alexdragunovI agree Gamrot needs to be sent to PFL or WWE if his game plan is to spam takedowns
Shut up casual😂
damn the hate is real😂
That was the last thing I was expecting tbh haha after that first round
Thank you Blaydes!
Almeida is always diving for the legs for dear life
Lol
B B B B Blades!!! So happy rn!!
Blaydes deserves a title shot😊💯
And he deserves to be champion one day, too.
Im so glad this jailton Guy got stopped all that laying on people in the end he got layed out 😂
Thank you Blades for finally knocking that wet blanket steroid freak out. I couldn’t stand the idea of Jailton getting a title fight.
It is pretty clear from the comments here that nobody likes Almeda fighting style.
Bro is on steroids to literally hug his way to a win, it's insane
Eu torço contra o Malhadinho, pois suas lutas são chatas... Falta dar socos, ser agressivo.
@@MMABones lol yeah way too much overhate Only 1 bad fight against lewis
im glad almeida the cuddler grappler got tko'd, he had it coming😂😂
Curtis must be the champ in this era
I agree! I have always loved this guy and predict he will be HW champ pretty soon.
Not with aspinall existing
@@Dpw20001 Aspinall is ducking him
That you so much Curtis Blaydes You save the audience from boring everytime leg hugger also save HW division God bless you
Saved the heavyweight division
Congratulations to Blaydes he's one of the best
Curtis is a nice guy, and a dangerous grappler.
YOOOOO blaydes is talking without a stutter BIG UP man all love and respect for you ❤❤❤
All the homies love Curtis Blaydes
Almeida just went straight for that takedown, no feint or something. Blaydes defended it well, almeida got stuck, blaydes used his left arm to keep him in that bad position as he hammerfisted his head. Some good TDD for blaydes
He wasnt even stuck. Blaydes wanted to anchor his head down, but I noticed Almeida had his hands locked the entire time on the single leg. Looked like he didnt realize the hammer fists were doing so much damage and ended up rocked quickly. I think he just wanted to keep working the single leg because all he does is hug.
Didnt like him at first but Curtis is a G. Never avoided fight , i mean dude fought Francis twice , always seems ready , fights pretty frequently for a HW and no drama at all . Keep it going brother
So happy for all the success Curtis has enjoyed in his career one of the most underrated fighters in ufc history dude can do it all
Of course it should be Aspinall next!
He also beat his stutter lfg curt
Thank you, Mr Curtis. You are a saviour..
Big respect
YESSS, BLAYDES YESS!!!!!!!! GET THAT ASPINALL REMATCH
Thank you Curtis
Congratulations Curtis Blaydes! Incredible win 👏👏👏
Thank you Curtis for ruining a hype train 🙏
Especially a boring lay and pray hugging fighter like Almeida
How does he speak so well after a fight but every other time he has stutter lol. Fighting completes this man
blaydes is awesome
What a legend demolished that hype job
Curtis, thank you.
Crazy finish
Thank you Curtis get that rematch with aspinall
Thank you Curtis!!! Get that snooze fest outta here
Splendid. Other fighters should learn from this. When someone takes you down like that and his/her head is open use a hammer fist instead of trying to get back up. Most fighters never learned from the same mistakes they've been in.
I think this only works because HW has heavy hands. Smaller fighters not so much.
Johnny Walker knocked out Paul Craig like this. It only works if you've got really heavy hands
@@rexoni2512Yeah but smaller fighters also fight opponents with smaller heads. Also, bigger doesn't equal to harder punches.
Very happy for Blaydes man 🎉
Thanks for the cash Curtis, real G of the HW, alwYs taking the tough fights and banking on his skills
Joe asking for the replay then asking Curtis in the interview about an uppercut that never happened is hilarious to me.
The UFC doesn't show ppv finishes on replay in their YT clips. That's why you didn't see it.
@@MMABones you must not've watched the fight. Joe was insisting that Blaydes caught Almeida with an uppercut when he was shooting for his legs, asked prodiuction to show a replay of Almeida shooting, where it was obvious he didn't, and Joe couldn't admit to being wrong, so he asked him in the post-fight interview too, lol.
@@whiteowlmassacre4907 ok
Almeida from now on should only fight in the prelims at the Apex
I agree. Or maybe he could just go to the PFL where nobody would care anymore.
He should go hustle the grappling tournaments. This is prize fighting.
Thank you Curtis MF Blades KO this Boaring fighter. Almighty needs to go in Jujutsu
thank god
Thankyou Curtis 😂
The fact this guy could fight for the belt is insane
So happy blades got a win such nice guy
Give him the title shot. You gave cby 3 and he lost all of them.
Jailton seemed crazy strong. Glad curtis got it
It’s prize fighting, not a grappling tournament. When you fight like that guy, people will cheer when you get slept.
They all said Blaydes was finished but I guess he never got the memo. Congrats to the future Heavyweight champ. Tom Aspinall, we are coming for your head.
The thing is, almeda just showed a huge flaw in Blaydes fighting style. Blaydes have no takedown defence whatsoever. Getting taking down 10 times in a single round is not a good look. If almeda was a bigger guy like Tom he would have done great damage to Blaydes. I don't see Blaydes beating Aspinall. The only person that i see beating Tom is Cyril Gane. Gane is as fast and elusive as Tom Aspinall and Gane has showed that he can defend the takedown and keep the fight standing during his last fight with Spivak. Sadly, Tom is now avoiding a fight with Gane like a plague.
@@MMABonesnotice how Almeida never let go of his grips to throw a punch? Of course he's able to mat return and control him but he's doing zero damage.
Muscly is streak over, just one loses. Congratulations to Curtis Razor blaydes!!!
Never get anchored and pounded!
perfect callout that fight sounds perfect since they got unfinished business and he win in a impressive way
i met curtis at elitches and he is a great man
Blaydes was a very tough match for Almaida no doubt and I knew that before the fight too and Blaydes won in spectacular fashion. For Almeida I still think he has lots of potential, he works very hard on his body to keep it in shape and if he could apply that same effort into working on the mma skills like the ground and pound when he has top control or into the striking when he's holding an opponent up against the cage, then he will be very dominant. If he wants to keep avoiding the standing strike game from a distance then that's fine but he has to learn how to throw some strikes while he's holding on to his opponent either on the fence or ground and that will force his opponents to open up to putting themselves into vulnerable positions for him to submit them and he has to find other ways to submit his opponents other than the rear naked choke because everyone knows that's what he's going for.
I'm so glad Almeida wasn't able to hug his way to a win, I got so hype when that coward got finished
Big fan of Blades! This dude is a great fighter with a big heart .
Oh yes the belly tactics
Damn that must've felt good for Blaydes
Salut, s'il vous le lien du combat, j'arrive pas à voir, merci !
That is one guy you don’t want to wrestle with. He’s a problem man
thank GOD someone finally beat almedia. Hes so boring
Curtis blayde holding it down for the old guard
Curtis Blaydes for president, please.
Happy for Curtis. The guy seems to have improved in his fight IQ, which makes him so much more dangerous. I don't understand this Division' Business, esp at the top of the pyramid. Ngannou is the real UFC lineal champ. No one knows where the Jones/Miocic storyline is going. It can't go very far though. So Blaydes, Gane and Aspinal have to fight each other at some point. All three fights are pretty exciting, so go for it
💯 Tom for sure 👍
*Curtis the top 5 gate keeper.*
Almeida not on that level yet called it vamo curtis!
Very bold plan to come significantly underweight and outwrestle Curtis Blaydes at HW. Good luck in the rematch with Aspinall!
Lovely when people get kod, what was talking bs before 🤣🤣🤣❤
Dominate with take downs but did not hurt Curtis
Tom aspinal is a fair callout. Jones is holding up the belt. And their last fight tom was injured. So it's unfinished business plus Tom could defend his interim belt and make jones mad.
okay grappling is part of MMA. But Almeida is just hugging and doing nothing.
Following Khabibs theory.
@@samblack5313Khabib would actually throw ground and pound and do damage, Almeida is just hugging literally the entire time
Razor is like the ken norton of UFC
Day of a one-dimensional puriest BJJ like Jailton dominating has long been over in mma. Jailton's ground game is exceptional but he needs to up his striking game and then he'd be a serious threat.
But where is the moment?
🙌🙌🙌🙌
super
Man i really thought he was gonna grapple with almeida cause of his great fight IQ! He seemed surprised in the first round too Then again blaydes beats everyone except power punchers lol
Rematch Pablovich? Ajajaj
I 'm not an experts of UFC rules, but I believe Curtis Blaydes hit Jailton Almeida with 19 hammer fist, with 4-6 of them hitting him directly in the back of the head.
He was about to say I’d like to get that one back but realised he got the w over aspinall even tho what happened lol
