Dmitriy Kel Jan. 4, 2025, 7:19 a.m.

UFC American heavyweight Curtis Blades shared his thoughts on the upcoming fight between the promotion's lightweight champion Merab Dvalishvili and Umar Nurmagomedov.

The Georgian and the Dagestani will meet in the main event of UFC 311, which takes place in Los Angeles on Jan. 18.

"It's going to be crazy. They're very similar to each other. Both are going to try to get the knockdown, both operate at a high pace. Umar is a little more technical, Merab is a little more impulsive, always pressing forward. I'm betting on Merab to win, but I know Umar has fast hands. But Merab will be hungrier for the knockdowns because his striking is not as good," Blaydes said in an interview with James Lynch.
