Curtis Blaydes started 2022 with a bang. The long-time UFC heavyweight contender kicked off the year with a big stoppage win. Blaydes (16-3 MMA, 11-3 UFC) scored an impressive TKO over Chris Daukaus after landing a flush left hand and then following up with ground-and-pound in the main event of UFC on ESPN 33 back in March. The victory earned Blaydes a $50,000 bonus for Performance of the Night, his third career UFC Fight Night award. The TKO also put Blaydes on a two-fight wining streak and 6-1 in his past seven outings. You can watch Blaydes’ finish in the video above.
