"The injuries, this is the past. I'm happy. Everything is good now. And you know, now, I cannot leave decision for [judges]. I need to finish [the] fight before time [runs out]. And this is what I'm gonna do. I started checking when they offered him. I don't watch his fights before that, but now I know almost everything about him."
"very powerful guy, Young guy, young blood with good striking skills. So I have to be focused all the time, hands up. But I like this style, and I think his style and my style are gonna be a good fight to watch. That's why I like this fight also,"
Jan Blachowicz (29-11-1) returns to the cage at UFC 323 in Las Vegas this Saturday to face Bogdan Guskov. Blachowicz carries a three-fight winless streak that includes a split draw with Magomed Anklaev in December 2022 and a split decision loss to Alex Pereira in July. Blachowicz reports that past injuries are behind him and that the most recent camp was good with no injuries. He insists he must finish fights rather than leave outcomes to the judges. He studied Guskov only after being offered the bout and described Guskov as a powerful young striker. A win could restore Blachowicz's spot in the top-five light heavyweight rankings.
