"How The Polish Power Won a UFC Title
After becoming the KSW light-heavyweight Champion, Jan Błachowicz entered the UFC in 2014 to finish Ilir Latifi.
His next 5 fights were a mess, as he would go 1-4, losing to names like Jimi Manuwa, Corey Anderson, and Alexander Gustafsson.
But in 2017 he went on a very impressive run, going 9-1 across 4 years with 5 finishes,
defeating names like Nikita Krylov, Jacare Souza, Corey Anderson, and finally Dominick Reyes in 2020 to win the vacant lightheavyweight championship at 37 years old.
And in 2021, he defended his title against middleweight champion Israel Adesanya.
Yes, he would lose his belt to Glover Teixeira and get a draw in his next tile opportunity, but we’ll always remember
