Your support makes all the difference.Heavyweight action headlines this weekend’s UFC Fight Night, as Curtis Blaydes and Chris Daukaus go head-to-head and each man looks to insert himself into the title picture.
Blaydes (15-3, 1 No Contest) has twice put together solid win streaks to close in on a title shot, only to suffer a loss and lose momentum on both occasions.
The American rebounded from his most recent defeat by outpointing Jairzinho Rozenstruik in September, while compatriot Chris Daukaus (12-4) won five in a row before suffering a first-round knockout loss to Derrick Lewis last time out.
Former police officer Daukaus will look to secure a statement victory over Blaydes here and reestablish himself as a genuine contender in the division.
