UFC heavyweight Curtis Blades has spoken out about his upcoming fight against Tom Aspinall, the promotion's interim champion in the division.
"If I see Tom limping, it doesn't mean I can immediately target his leg. It's not like my fight plan is, 'Oh, attack his sore leg.' I'm not targeting his knee. Honestly, I don't even know which leg is injured. I don't want to win because of an injury. That would denigrate the victory. You can't brag about winning when your opponent is injured. But if it happens, it will happen. I will take the belt. But it's not my approach to emphasize hitting him with kicks," Blades told SHAK MMA channel.
