The UFC held an American UFC Fight Night card with fans in attendance for the first time since UFC Fight Night: Benavidez vs Figueiredo in 2020. Among all the enthusiastic fans at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio for UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs Daukas, two names stole the show. They were NFL star and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback, Joe Burrow, and Ohio’s own UFC sensation Stipe Miocic. Burrow [http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/joe-burrow/] was spotted saying, “What’s up guys, Joe Burrow here. Excited to be in the building, in Columbus, in my home state, ready to watch all these fights.” The crazy card saw finishes and exciting matches throughout the night [https://www.ufc.com/news/ufc-fight-night-blaydes-vs-daukaus-results-highlights-winners-interviews-ufc-columbus]. Hence, Burrow and all the other fans definitely would’ve enjoyed watching the live UFC event. Even earlier at UFC London, the stars made their presence felt and the UFC Fight Night card appeared nothing less than a PPV card. For the past two years, the UFC had operated its Fight Night cards from the UFC Apex because of known restriction reasons. However, now that they are coming back with the crowd in attendance, it reminds us how great the fight fans make a card.

The winner of the main event would have thrown his name into the hat for title/interim title consideration.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Curtis Blaydes?Â </strong></h2>
Curtis Blaydes is one of the superstar fighters in the UFC's heavyweight division. As of July 2024, he sits at #4 heavyweight <a class="es-hyperlink-new" href="https://www.ufc.com/rankings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rankings</a>. One of the most dominant fighters in the division's history, 'Razor' Blaydes, who started professionally fighting in 2014, has achieved great heights ever since.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Curtis Blaydesâ€™ Early LifeÂ </strong></h2>
Born in Naperville, Illinois, Blaydes, born on the 8th of February, 1991, was brought up as a proud American. The fighter grew up with his share of challenges in a broken household, periled by divorce. While details about his mother are unknown, Blaydes has shared about his father and two brothers in several instances. Seemingly, except himself, his entire family is on the police force, notably, his father and younger brother in Chicago, and his older brother in Dallas.

Blaydes started his fight training while still in high school, initially starting with wrestling. During the time his parents split, the fighter had to move between places, although the fighter became unenthusiastic towards the sport, later his football coach supported him and pushed him to the glory he has earned today! Thereafter for his first competitive match, things didn't quite go in 'Razor's favor but this time his father came through as the support system and thanks to that, Blaydes is now one of the most remarkable fighters in the UFC roster.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Curtis Blaydesâ€™ Wife and Children</strong></h2>
Razor has a happy family with a partner and a daughter! Yes, Blaydes is engaged to Alexandria Wright his partner, and they have been together for over 7 years. Wright is a businesswoman, and CEO of a skincare brand 'Rouxled.' Although their daughter often appears in their social media posts, her name has never been disclosed as of July 2024.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Curtis Blaydesâ€™ Net Worth 2024Â </strong></h2>

<strong>Stipe Miocic</strong> is the most successful heavyweight in UFC history with four title defenses across two reigns.

When Miocic is not fighting some of the scariest fighters in MMA, he saves lives as a fireman in Cleveland. As of November 2024, he sits at #8 in the UFC men's heavyweight rankings.
<h3 style="text-align: center">Stipe Miocic’s early life</h3>
The two-time UFC heavyweight champion was born on August 19, 1982 in Independence, Ohio, USA. He was born and raised in Euclid Ohio and his parents are Croatian. His parents divorced when he was a toddler and his mother Kathy raised him while his father Bojan moved to Austria. <em>“I was a mama’s boy. </em><em>She’s awesome, a great lady”</em> - he told UFC.com.

In 2019, after he reclaimed the heavyweight title from Daniel Cormier, Miocic revealed his father had beaten cancer. <em>“I’m so happy for you, dad. I got this belt, this is for you OK... </em><em>My dad just got cleared of cancer, by the way, today. How awesome is that, right? He acted like it was no big thing. He’s like, ‘Oh I’m clear’.”</em>

Ahead of his rematch against Francis Ngannou at UFC 260, the couple revealed they were expecting their second. On August 28, 2021, they welcomed their son Mateo Cruz.

Miocic's wife is a nurse by profession. She has also reportedly worked as a hairstylist and a cosmetology instructor before taking on nursing training.

After becoming the heavyweight champion in 2016, his paychecks are likely to have been seven-digit figures, considering base pay, win bonuses, and PPV shares. He earned a reported $750K for the first Daniel Cormier fight and just above a million dollars in the trilogy match at UFC 252, which is also his biggest paycheck to date. This figure is tied with his earnings for the Francis Ngannou rematch at UFC 260. According to MMA Salaries, he has earned around $8,127,000 fro his MMA fights.

He would put together another 3-fight winning run, including a win over Roy Nelson, before losing a decision to Junior Dos Santos in December 2014. And after that, Miocic went on his legendary run of, winning six on the trot, including a title bout and successful defenses.

After first-round KO wins over Mark Hunt and Andrei Arlovski, Miocic fought the former champion, <strong>Fabricio Werdum</strong>, in UFC 198 in Brazil for the heavyweight title where he shocked the world by knocking 'Vai Cavalo' out in the first round. The firefighter from Cleveland would then defend his title against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alistair-overeem/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Alistair Overeem</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/francis-ngannou/">Francis Ngannou</a>, and Junior Dos Santos and write his name in the history books for most consecutive title defenses in the heavyweight division. Of these six opponents since the loss to Dos Santos the first time around, only Francis Ngannou went to a decision; the rest were all done in one by 'Stone Cold.'

Miocic lost his title to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-cormier/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Daniel Cormier</a> in UFC 226. However, he knocked out Cormier in the rematch to regain his title in UFC 241. Subsequently, he defended his title almost a year later at UFC 252 in a trilogy bout.
