UFC 259 Aftermath: Jan Blachowicz wants his respect, and it s time we all gave it to him

MMA Fighting Share this story Esther Lin, MMA Fighting On Saturday night at UFC 259, UFC light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz silenced the doubters, winning a competitive decision over middleweight champion and rising superstar Israel Adesanya. Coming into the bout, there were a number of questions about the legitimacy of Blachowicz’s title and his prospects of holding onto the belt. Now there can be none. Jan Blachowicz is the rightful king of the light heavyweight division and the man deserves his respect. It’s easy to dismiss Blachowicz’s late-career renaissance as little more than smoke and mirrors. After all, in his run to the title, Blachowicz faced a pair of middleweights, Corey Anderson, and Dominick Reyes. It was a solid stretch, but it’s hardly the stuff legends are made of. Yes, he had the fun “Legendary Polish Power” schtick, but this is a man who had one TKO in his previous 11 UFC bouts. Clearly that was more about branding than truth

I led the fight. I went the distance. I controlled the center. I controlled the clinching, and I hit him with some hard kicks, one high kick, couple of punches, so a dominant performance, and Iâm happy about my performance.â

UFC 259 live blog: Results, highlights and analysis

History repeated itself at UFC 259. Back in July 2019, Luke Rockhold was en route for a career-defining fight against Jon Jones. The one final hurdle to jump was defeating Jan Blachowicz, who was coming off a loss and entered the bout as an underdog. But that Rockhold-Jones fight never took place, as Blachowicz knocked out Rockhold. Entering Saturday, Israel Adesanya was also looking forward to a fight against Jones. That may still happen, but just like Rockhold, he hit a massive roadblock in his fight against Blachowicz. Blachowicz (28-8) seized control of the bout in the championship rounds, successfully defending the light heavyweight title, defeating Adesanya (20-1) via unanimous decision. While Blachowicz keeps his streak of upsets alive, the bout marks Adesanya’s first loss in MMA. Adesanya remains the middleweight champion, as well as one of the most elite fighters in the world, but clearly struggled with Blachowicz’s size and power in his move to light heavyweight.
