Jan Blachowicz, after the fight against Magomed Ankalaev, made an honorable claim. According to him, it is his Russian counterpart that should have his hand raised. ‘The Polish powerhouse’ said, “Give the belt to [Magomed] Ankalaev.”
Joe Rogan was impressed with Jan Blachowicz
After making the claim that the title should be given to Ankalaev, Rogan had a heartwarming reaction to Blachowicz. Joe Rogan went on to declare that “Jan Blachowicz is an honorable man ladies and gentlemen. How about a round of applause for Jan Blachowicz?”
During the interview with Rogan, Blachowicz also admitted that he was not sure of the winner. Blachowicz said “I have to watch the fight but for sure I don’t won the fight. I don’t lose the fight. But for sure I’m not the winner. I have to watch the fight….I’m not the judge.”

On the thought of the rematch, Blachowicz opined that he needs preparation for a five-round fight. He also said that his wrestling was better than the last fight. However, he said that he needs improvement on that front.
However, the Polish powerhouse is not the only honorable fighter in the light heavyweight division. Jiri Prochazka made a respectful choice when he suffered a shoulder injury and subsequently vacated his title.
