What do you think about Jan Blachowicz?

[Bork Neslar]

He's good.

 

[Evangelion]

He is 35, so he probably won’t get any better than mediocre

Hes #5 in the world. Yea its a shit division but still hes not mediocre

 

[Dead Kennedy]

I think he needs to change his nickname to "B.J."

Wow, must be ufc rankings?

 

[VanMMA]

His resurgence has been nice to watch. I'd like to see him and Manuwa go at it a 3rd time.

I think Jan's a cool guy. Before the Rumble-Gustafsson fight a few years ago the UFC hosted a little casino night for fight club members in this cool club in Stockholm. Bruce Buffer and Urijah Faber and a couple other VIP's were roped off in this section on their own, but guys like Latifi, Jan, Manuwa, Travis Browne were walking around mingling with the fans.

After getting a picture with Jan I asked him if he'd tell Buffer to come over and take a picture with me cus, "he's scared of you". Jan was all like, "Oh no, no, he's not scared of me" but he marched right over and pointed right at Bruce and beckoned him over for a picture with me. Jan's alright in my books. Good fighter too. I was at the London event in March and him and Jimi was the best fight of the night.

Good striking bad takedown defense and grappling

Bad grappling?Took down Anderson, Cummins (while being gassed), Manuwa 2 times as I recall

Pop in a tape of Gustafsson fight.

 

[CaloLutadores]

He’s a solid kickboxer, but his cardio and wrestling is way too shitty to make him a contender for the belt at some point. Corey beats him 9/10, Gus beats him every time.

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

I could go for him rematching Latifi I think he caught Latifi in a way that would not happen again and it be a nice war the 2nd time.

That said I don't think he'll last long at #5, Reyes, Ledet and other young guns will take him down.

 

[Squall10]

Wouldn't mind a Russian Stallion like that on top of me...

Didn't he also get absolutely dominated in the wrestling department by Corey and Cummins?
