Curtis Blaydes has responded to the provocative behavior of Josh Hawkett, comparing it to Colby Covington's approach. While acknowledging that Covington 'was actually good' at that persona, Blaydes made it clear he won't engage with Hawkett's tactics. Blaydes believes Hawkett is simply trying to create viral video moments and considers interacting with him outside of fight night a waste of time. The heavyweight contender stated this niche isn't for him and he won't participate in such antics. Details are limited regarding what specific behavior from Hawkett prompted these comments.
