Georgian UFC fighter Roman Dolidze commented on the fight between Magomed Ankalaev and Jan Blakhovitch, which took place at UFC 282 and ended in a draw.
– It was a very difficult fight for both athletes. The first thing I would like to note is that both showed the highest level, both showed that they are ready to be champions. I really liked the fight itself, I was present in the hall. And he was very surprised. We were sure that Ankalaev with his skills might simply not feel Jan, but Blachowicz showed a very worthy fight. Because of the damage that Blachowicz inflicted on Ankalaev, the judges probably decided to give a draw, although I was inclined to believe that Ankalaev won, – Metaratings.ru quotes Dolidze.
After a draw between Ankalaev and Blachowicz, the light heavyweight title was left vacant. Now Glover Teichera and Jamal Hill will fight for him on January 21 at UFC 283.
