NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Curtis Blaydes is letting Justin Willis ’ trash talk ahead of UFC on ESPN+ 6 motivate him rather than negatively impact him. In the weeks leading up to their heavyweight showdown, Willis (8-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) has taken every opportunity to put Blaydes (10-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC) on blast. Willis has said both Blaydes’ personality and fighting style are “boring,” and “Razor” has heard every bit of it in advance of Saturday’s bout. He refuses to let it shake him, though, and vows not to be thrown off his game come fight night. “He thinks he’s the next Colby Covington or whatever, I don’t know,” Blaydes told MMA Junkie on Wednesday at UFC on ESPN+ 6 open workouts
