UFC Columbus: Blaydes vs. Daukaus Results
LowKick MMA will be bringing you UFC Columbus: Blaydes vs. Daukaus results throughout the night (Sat. March 26. 2022) live from the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
Taking main event honors in a re-worked headliner — perennial heavyweight contender, Curtis Blaydes returns against Philadelphia finisher, Chris Daukaus.
Blaydes, who sits at #4 in the official heavyweight rankings, rebounded from a thunderous one-punch knockout loss to Derrick Lewis, to grab a comprehensive unanimous decision win against Jairzinho Rozenstruik at UFC 266.
In his last go-around, Daukaus suffered his first promotional loss at the hands of common-foe, Lewis in the main event of UFC Vegas 45 last December. The defeat snapped a run of four straight Octagon victories for Daukaus over Parker Porter, Rodrigo Nascimento, Alexey Oleynik, and Shamil Abdurakhimov.
