I'll catch the co-main and the main. Would love to see Volkov pull the upset but I think Blaydes takes him down and grinds him out.

Very underwhelming performance from Blaydes. He looked like an idiot after about the 3rd round sucking air like like he was. I'm glad he got kind of exposed. He was pretty ineffective after the 3rd round and a more powerful striker would have put him out. I was hoping Volkov could have came back late and landed the (T)KO shot but he just doesn't have the power. I was more impressed by his heart and durability than I was by any of Blaydes performance. Stipe & DC make quick work of Blaydes. Ngannou kills him a 3rd time.
