#3 Ranked heavyweight, Blaydes claimed he would get JDS ont he ground in the first round using his wrestling but he had to struggle to keep up with his word. But in the end, he didn’t had to use it to win the biggest win of his career. Blaydes was pressuring JDS right from the start and looking for a take down. JDS was aware and kept his hands low. He looked to land his signature right uppercut but missed his mark. JDS landed some heavy blows that changed Blaydes’ mind from striking to look for take downs. JDS was smart enough to evade and stuff his attempts while looking for a big shot from his right punch. The turning point came in the second round when Blaydes faked a take down and hurt JDS with a crushing right hand following up with couple of knees to the head. JDS was hurt badly and covering up himself. A barrage of right hands against the cage saw JDS crumbling in pain and the referee stopping the fight at 1.06mins of the second round.
