Diggin’ Deep on UFC: Blaydes vs. Lewis - Big sluggers looking to squash their beef

Despite the crowded nature of this card – 15 fights! – it really boils down to one fight: the main event. However, while it’s hardly shocking news that the main event is the most consequential fight, it’s about as good of a Fight Night main event as the UFC can provide… even if it’s at heavyweight!

Fan favorite Derrick Lewis and wrestling bulldozer Curtis Blaydes square off in a grudge match that has been brewing for some time. However, the funny thing about the contest is even though Lewis and Blaydes are two of the top heavyweights in the game, it’s unlikely the winner would get a title shot any time in the next year… and that’s with both of them having wins over another contender in Alexander Volkov!
