Heavyweights Curtis Blaydes and Josh Hokit went to war on the UFC 327 main card last weekend in Miami. Their efforts earned them Fight of the Night honors, a fat bonus check, and solidified them a spot in the conversation of Fight of the Year.

Hokit won the fight via unanimous decision with all three judges scoring the bout the same, 29-28. Blaydes, however, doesn't agree with the Judes and believes he should have had his hand raised instead.

"I was surprised. I was expecting Herb [Dean] to pick my hand up. I really was," Blaydes told TMZ Sports. "I was a little bit in shock. I was like, damn, I thought I did enough."

Blaydes hasn't seen the full replay of the fight but has watches most of the clips posted online. He believes his wrestling should have gotten him the nod.

"It looked like, yeah, it was a hell of a fight. I won a lot of those exchanges, and he won a lot of those exchanges. It seemed split, but then you add in the wrestling. He didn't get any of his wrestling going. I Got mine going," said Blaydes. "That was really the main reason I thought I won because I knew on the strikes it was event. But then when you add the grappling, I know I won that."

The fight was a violent back-and-forth slugfest and Blaydes' face was showing the damage early in the opening round. "Razor" suffered an orbital injury and a broken nose but feels 'good' four days removed from the event.

"I feel good. Early on, I was on pain meds. I was on Percocet because I have the orbital and broken nose but I haven't had any of those in a day, so I still feel good. And if you watched the fight, I know everybody did, he didn't hit me anywhere else besides the face, so my legs are good, my arms are good, everything else is good," said Blaydes.

"I think he broke the nose on that early overhand in the first round. That's where all the blood from. I think that was like the biggest deciding factor for the judges was all the blood I was spilling."
