An elite heavyweight wrestler nicknamed 'Razor' whose only real obstacles have been the division's very best.

Curtis 'Razor' Blaydes is one of the best wrestlers in the UFC heavyweight division, a fighter who has spent years near the top of the rankings on the strength of his takedowns and suffocating top control. When Blaydes gets a hold of you, the fight becomes a grind he usually controls.
What stands out about his career is the quality of his losses - they've come almost exclusively against the division's elite, like Francis Ngannou and Tom Aspinall, the kind of power punchers who can end any fight. He even owns a win over Aspinall. His striking has improved steadily, but his wrestling is the foundation everything else is built on. His record sits around 19-5.
For newcomers, Blaydes is a reminder that heavyweight isn't only about knockouts - elite grappling can carry you to the doorstep of a title. He's a perennial contender who has tested himself against the very best the division has to offer.
Why fans love Blaydes
Elite wrestling, durability against the division's hardest hitters, and the resilience to keep climbing back into contention.
