UFC heavyweight contenders Curtis Blaydes and Chris Daukaus are scheduled to meet in the headlining bout of a yet-to-be-announced UFC Fight Night event on March 26 in Columbus, Ohio.
Journalist Ariel Helwani was the first to report the news of the matchup, although the promotion is yet to officially announce anything itself regarding the fight or event. Blaydes is 5-2 in his last seven Octagon appearances and will try to build on a unanimous decision win over Jairzinho Rozenstruik at UFC 266. Daukaus meanwhile is 5-1 in his last six fights and is coming off of a first-round KO loss to former UFC title challenger, Derrick Lewis, at UFC Vegas 45.
Rozenstruik starts to come alive in the second, and is met with another Blaydes takedown --
