Blades: 'I won't be an immovable target for Pavlovich'

Top American heavyweight Curtis Blades shared his expectations from the fight with the Russian Sergei Pavlovich, which will take place on the night of April 23 as part of the UFC Fight Night 222 show in Las Vegas.

“My wrestling is a problem for anyone. If you don't think so, then you don't understand MMA well. My ability to transfer my opponent to the ground at any time puts a lot of psychological pressure on my opponents. Even if I don't throw takedowns, they know the opportunity exists and keep that in mind and I use it. I will beat Pavlovich and I will wait for the title fight.

Sergey's previous rivals stood in front of him and played his game, and I will move and will not become a stationary target for him, ”blades said at a press conference before the tournament.
