Preview: UFC on ESPN 33 ‘Blaydes vs. Daukaus’

The Ultimate Fighting Championship’s long-awaited return to Columbus, Ohio, likely will not live up to the standards set by its predecessor in London, but it should provide the requisite level of entertainment. There is a little bit of everything with the UFC on ESPN 33 main card this Saturday at Nationwide Arena, led by heavyweight contenders Curtis Blaydes and Chris Daukaus squaring off in an important headliner. However, the stakes are probably highest a bit further down the bill, as either Askar Askarov or Kai Kara France figures to be in the catbird seat for a flyweight title shot with a win.
