UFC Fight Night 208 video: Curtis Blaydes, Tom Aspinall face off one final time

LONDON – Curtis Blaydes and Tom Aspinall faced off one final time Friday ahead of their pivotal clash Saturday.

Blaydes (16-3 MMA, 11-3 UFC) and Aspinall (12-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) square off in a five-round heavyweight main event at UFC Fight Night 208, which takes place at The O2 in London. The card streams on ESPN+.

Both fighters look to enter title contention with a win. Blaydes showed off his hands with a second-round TKO of Chris Daukaus in March. A week prior, Aspinall made quick work of Alexander Volkov with a first-round submission in London.

The ceremonial faceoffs took place Friday, hours after fighters officially made weight. Check out Blaydes and Aspinall’s faceoff in the video above.
