The Octagon invaded Ohio for tonight’s UFC Columbus event, a twelve-bout fight card headlined by Curtis Blaydes vs. Chris Daukaus.<\/p>\n

The highly anticipated heavyweight main event proved to be a short lived affair. To the surprise of many, Curtis Blaydes did not shoot for a single takedown in tonight\u2019s event headliner. Instead, \u2018Razor\u2019 decided to showcase his improved striking skills, outpointing Daukaus on the feet in the opening five minutes. Then, at the start of round two, Blaydes landed a huge punch that sent Daukaus crashing down to the canvas. Curtis quickly pounced on his wounded opponent and promptly finished the fight off with ground and pound.<\/p>\n
