Curtis is such a class act man. Love that dude
Rmember that time a random loser trolling him, and he politely kept asking " who is this man?, whos is this?"..
He is a humble giant
I didn't realize he's such a humble guy.
Hoping Aspinal takes it but I won't be sad if Curtis wins.
It’s a shame Tom is gonna melt him in to oblivion
@MMAproAtGOLF does not matter. Hes made good money, got his health and a family. Im happy for him
@@lebraa me too. But Tom goat
Blaydes entered the UFC 5-0 and now he is 17-4 in which he has fought: N'Gannou twice, Volkov, Lewis, Overewm, Hunt, Oleynik, JDS, Shamil, Rozenstruik, Almeida, Pavlovich and Aspinall.
That's a bunch of killers and different styles that he has seen plus he knows what is like to go the full 25 minutes
For sure being slept on for this fight cause of the Aspinall hype.
18*-4 must be 19-4!
I don't think anybody's sleeping on Curtis. He's a dangerous opponent for anybody. Tom's probably the favourite, but it just takes, one touch.
didn’t he willingly ask for the ngannou rematch too
Big respect for Curtis
always respect Curtis man.. this dude went out there and had a boxing match with Sergei, what balls that takes! much respect, good luck Razor
Even tho I have Tom in this fight
A completely agree with you Curtis is a top man ✌️
LETS GO CURT BRING THAT BELT HOME BABY 🇺🇸
With all irony of the situation Blaydes is the only one in UFC who has a win over Aspinall,but devastating loss to Pavlovich,seems very funny to me
had a boxing match because he couldn't take him down. Stop downplaying Pavlo
I’m rooting for him to get the upset,,
Curtis is actually a cool guy. Im glad he’s doing media now!
There's a reason he's called Cyril Gone.
Nice 😂😂😂😂😂😂!
😂😂
Took me a minute to get that one 😂 only works with an American accent with Os being As tho
at first i though it was pronounced as "gain" but that pronunciation makes more sense these days
Love this dude, and Aspinal, a battle of two real ones! Love it
Great interview honestly, Curtis truly is a class act
Why does he look so angry in the thumbnail?
@@bigmanbigman2544probably his RBF
Good for curtis , one of the few fighters that fights everyone, unlike that French
Yeah, disappointing he ducked Pavlovich
Jon Jones not French lol
@@marmedli9124 you must be a casual, he's talking about Cyril Gane...
@tacoz316 It was sarcasm, you must be a yank , so narrow minded lol
@tacoz316 it was sarcasm, you must be a yank, so narrow minded lol
Tom and Curtis are real men who conduct themselfs with dignity and class. They take on whatever challenge; even if its a huge risk. I cant help but respect both guys.
I want Tom to win but Curtis seems like a cool guy 😎
I know it's tough when both guys are cool
@@Dob_Ogurt
Not really just watch fights, without being emotional invested, unless someone you know irl is fighting.
@@DarrenReddix-mf4ee it's more fun when you are a fan and are emotionally invested. But in my case it's Aspinall all day, and I hope he gets the finish. But will still feel for blades if he loses cause he seems decent and he's had a tough run in the UFC
@@Dob_Ogurt
To me it's not more fun, I'm simply just a fan of fighting not fan of a specific fighter. I do agree with you about his run btw, I do feel bad for him, being so close to UFC gold just to lose.
@@Dob_Ogurt May the better fighter win..
So glad Curtis has the courage to do interviews with his stutter. It must take so much strength to get through the interview 🙏🏾. I’m rooting for you brother 🤘🏾
Im 30 with a stutter, tbh by now he will be used to it.
You tend to stop caring what other people think as you get older
his stutter is starting to sound better too i feel
Great interview! Looking forward to this fight.
Shock the world Blaydes
no thanks. Jon needs to fight Tom.
@@jboi6398 cry
@@cubancreamking4392 Tom gonna give him a worse stutter since steroid cheat Jon Jones don't want the smoke with the real heavyweight champ
@@jboi6398Curtis will sleep Tom. Respectfully
@@snorkey2462 Tom is the more well rounded and better overall fighter. A freak accident likely won't happen again. Tom wins this 9/10 times
First time ive seen an interview with Curtis.
Didn't know he was so courteous and well spoken 😮.
Warrior Blaydes
Big fan Curtis. Let's go!
Thank u
Thanks for the video, MMA JUNKIE
Curtis is a solid, respectful athlete. How can anyone not like him. Best of luck to both gentlemen. Gonna be a banger.
Curtis is a good dude
Let’s go blades !!! Really happy bro get his chance .
I am so happy to see Curtis putting in work on screen. proud of you bro!
HE DEFINITELY KMOWS WHATS UP, HE THINKS LIKE A FIGHTER AND " A FAN "GREAT INTERVIEW BROTHER :👏👏👏💯👍
Great interview
Curtis is a very dangerous fight. You gotta respect Tom for taking this fight when he could have just waited it out.
He is win or lose I respect Toms decision on taking the fight with Blaydes.
@@stackmosayless-1669Tom is not exactly undeniable though. He owes Curtis this fight. Don’t get me wrong, he probably beats every HW. Yes it was an injury but he officially lost to Blaydes two fights ago.
But he lost to Curtis only two fights ago, beat tybura and pavlovich. I mean Blaydes has recent wins over Almeida and Aspinall.
@@Harry-hh1isas the interim champ the only person Tom owes a fight to right now is Jones. the fact that there’s a defense of the interim belt is disgraceful and i hope people remember this when they talk about Jon’s legacy in the future
@@hellogoodbye1748 he shouldn’t have the interim belt though. He fought for it on a one win streak over tybura.
Both Tom and Curtis are great representatives for the sport and would make for real classy champions.
top blokes
What a respectful humble man 👏
Enjoyed it, thank you.
Love this dude.. Very excited for this fight!
Curtis is humble af, dude perfectly described how Jon sees fighting him vs fighting Stipe for his legacy. That takes some extreme awareness and lack of ego to see it that way when you’re the guy fighting for the interem belt rn.
Curtis' testimony truly makes me feel bad for him...
what's the testimony bro
Curtis. What a guy. Keep being you brother. Grind it out. All the way to the top. 👊🏼
Cyril soft as hell. He doesn’t really wanna fight. Glad Curtis got the shot.
Yeap, the division is only in this weird position because of his "performance" anyone in the heavyweight would do 10x better than him.
Curtis is that dude! I can't wait fo the fight!
Curtis is the man. Doesn’t rely on any BS just makes improvements and keeps it pushing.
Curtis can give Jon Jones lil problems. Both same height and wrestling. Curtis almost in his orime year
Man, Cyril out here winning at life! He got a movie now too! He's literally going to end up fighting for the belt after these dudes go to war. Got his own fight league. Crushing it!
no he's not. He needs another win at this point.
@@jboi6398 false. He’s showing he doesn’t need UFC & has more lucrative opportunities outside the company
@@RealMattKiefer he's lost several title fights and ducked everybody. He deserves nothing, he needs another win. He knows tom will smash him.
You're jokjng @RealMattKiefer
@@jboi6398 never said he deserves anything… I said he’s obviously making more money outside UFC with his fight promotion & movie career if he can decline title shots & main events…
Love both Curtis and Tom and they have so much respect for each other.
Lets go curtis. You deserve this title fight.
Halesyeah, Curtis!
Go razor!!
What i'll say is everytime theres a fighter destroying people in double quick time there always comes a point where the run ends n they have a hard fight where they either lose or come close, we'll see if curtis can be the 1 who halts tom.
So happy for Curtis. Dude has put in some good work at Heavyweight. This is going to be a lot better fight than a lot of people think it’s going to be.
Shame him and Tom have to fight, both top blokes, humble, respectful and always ready to fight anyone. Respect.
Cool to hear what this guy has to say rare to get an interview from him
Never watched a proper Blaydes interview before, thanks.
I love Curtis Blades, and have since I saw him. The fighters I like are chill, calm, humble, and oddly enough in their field of work “not mean”
I’m thankful the mcgreggor era is done and fighters have realized there is no need for BS. I wanna see real and passionate people.
Curtis the real fans know what’s up! You the man dude, wishing you the best
No trash talk in this one…both respect each other …let’s go 👏🏻
I got to know Curtis Blades from this video and I respect him for saying he doesn't have to hate anyone to fight and compete. This guy is really cool.
Let’s go blades !!
Crazy they offered it to that bum Gane before Blaydes considering the history Curtis got with Tom and Curtis beats Gane easily IMO
I like Tom but I’m rooting for Curtis to get it! Tom is the present and future of heavy weights for sure. But I’d like to see Curtis go and get the win. He’s fought everyone!
I really like tom but man I gotta root for blaydes!!
@@jboi6398blaydes would leave your mom shaking with a stutter
@@InterYamah Stop projecting your fantasies on me weirdo! 😂
@InterYamah you're so angry from this guys comment that it's given you a stutter. I bet you have a stutter don't you?
I usually don't care who wins but I hope he wins, because I've always felt bad for the guy dude kept getting close to a title fight just to lose to Francis & Lewis. 🤦
Please pull this off big man🎉
Great interview. I actually agree 💯 with blaydes in everything you guys spoke on. Loved it. Rooting for blaydes 💪
"He said N-nnnnnnn... Turned down an opportunity."
Can we give this man the credit he deserves for overcoming his stutter? Sh!t ain't easy, and it cripples lots of people.
Hope my man from Chicago gets this best!
Jon is nothing but a big ol 🦆
The real champ is Tom and everyone real knows it. Happy to see Curtis get his shot.
Curtis lookin THICC from this angle lol
He has a thicc head
I love Curtis and this is definitely for the real ufc title
LETS GO, CURTIS!!!!
I’ll be rooting for Tom as a fellow countryman but much respect nevertheless Curtis, good luck!
Rooting for you Curtis!
Curtis: when it comes to wrestling I don’t make errors
Derrick Lewis: 👀
The moans from Curtis after that KO are nightmare fuel.
Let's go Curtis blades!!!
Shout out to Curtis on the Wyoming hoodie, represent!
he finally got his chance so TAKE IT BABY
Get it Curtis 😎
So the stipe fight is in November 😂 Jon waiting for stipe to get older
I called it let's goooo
Aspinall 🏴 vs 🇺🇲 Blaydes 2
What is he doing with that bottle is he spitting in it 😳
I hope he walks through Tom to humble that gentleman
How is Tom not humble?
"USA IN THIS HOE!" - Derrick "the Black Beast Who is also Nostradamus" Lewis
@@diegovazquez3566 by thinking someone who has been defending titles for over a decade should just vacate it all of a sudden because you beat Sergei
About to be severely beat up
@@Jon--Jones 100% I get it he popped WAY BACK IN THE DAY. bro did you see how Vitor looked when they fought? Jon was pretty candid about how the UFC knew Vitor was juiced too the gills and put his life at risk. I don't blame him for taking a little help. But other than the picto gram that was explained not with bro science but with nerd science... I hate when these dorks hate on Jon. That being said I still think if DC retires after beating Lewis he is the all time GOAT
Curtis always got a dip in during interviews…
BASED.
Whats a dip in ?
@@ronburgundy2383nicotine pouch
Google it bro, damn. They dont have tobacco at whatever school you're obv still in?😂
@@flightplanstan144 thanks for nothing tough guy
@@ronburgundy2383 Smokeless tobacco.
(i.e. Skoal, Grizzly, Copenhagen)
I'm a big Aspinall fan but Curtis looked sharp for those 10 seconds of the first fight lol.
Curtis spitting facts!
Curtis is a great dude and deserves all the best. Mike, "interim" and "undisputed" don't really belong in the same sentence, but I know what you meant :)
Im a massive Aspinall fan but in the 1st fight all 30ish seconds of it i was really surprised how fast blades was in there
Why is Curtis such a sweetheart
i've Always believed in this guy. I like Tom too i think they are both tough for Jones, however i hope Blaydes gets the win then beats Jons. You can do it man!
Curtis is a beast
Man do I love me some cccccccccurtis Blaydes
Massive fan of Tom but I gotta feeling that Curtis pulls this off
Dude I’m actually thinking that this fight will be more 50/50 than people think. Curtis a fighting freak. Aspinall is good and got a pretty solid record too, but Curtis also beat some top level heavyweights. This will be amazing
I think it’s 50/50 too because at heavyweight anything can happen and Curtis can wrestle too.
Dude Aspinall will likely make it look east and get another first round finish
Curtis is a very good guy i feel like, hes not stuttering as much cause he isnt as nervous
1 and 1 coming for tom let's go bro
Jones doesn't want any part of Tom Aspinall! Agree, Curtis is a class act !!
Curtis is built hilarious 😆
What a top bloke
Nice Beard on Curtis, he is ready for Power Slam !!!!
Proper scrap this fight. Respect to both men
"you better tuck that lip in. Gonna get that caught on a tripwire." - Lt. Dan
this fight should go the distance, interesting matchup
awesome
Much better fight than ciryl gane fight. I m glad they made tom vs curtis for the real belt.
I hope Curtis wins!
Rooting for Aspinall!!!
Curtis Blaydes seems like a sound geezer
Hard to want either one of these guys to lose
I won alot of money on Blaydes he's the main reason I didn't feel Aspinall should just automatically get the belt. He's a consistent professional no hype involved.
Such a likeable dude. I'd buy him a pint for sure.
as a casual I can confirm custis blades is fighting for the real belt
As one who respects the true meaning of what a championship belt signifies, I can say the same without sarcasm. Tom and Curtis fight for the 'best right now' status aka the real belt.
@@lostartistlostart iphone auto correct sucks wasnt sarcastic can't lie
@@sadier3536 sorry I'm particularly bad with interpreting broken sentences so please rephrase it (just in case, NO SARCASM INVOLVED LOL)
