Anyone else a massive fan of Jan Błachowicz? No controversy(apart from maybe the ank fight), seems like a nice and genuine guy, tough as nails, legs of stone and a good chin, (legendary polish) power, shut down Izzy etc. The guy has had some really close fights too, definitely beat Ulberg, strange fight with ank but gave him a run for his money, razor close fight with Pereira (if he threw some ground and pound strikes in rd3 he legit could have won) people forget man, the guy is still dangerous and crafty at 42.
Anyway for Jan Błachowicz 🇵🇱 Vs Bogdan Guskov 🇺🇿 I have Jan by 29-28 or 30-27 unanimous decision. Firstly I think Jan is much more experienced, he's dealt with hard hitters before, and seeing as Bogdan has his hands low a lot of the time I do see times where he could come forward and get stung by Jan. Also, given that boxing stance of Guskov where he's heavy on the front leg, I really think Jan can capitalise off that with his nasty leg kicks and really slow Guskov down and make him more cautious in the fight. I also think he can mix in the takedowns and potentially use the leg kicks to hurt Guskov, back him up and take him down. Guskov has big power, decently fast hands and killer instinct but I just think he's a bit too inexperienced and I think a win over krylov who got flat lined the fight before coming off a however many year long layoff isnt that great. I can imagine both guys will have good moments, maybe Guskov catches Jan at one point but I havent realy seen Guskovs TD get really tested. I see a clear 29-28 or even 30-27 decision for Jan. But what do you guys think
