Jan Blachowicz thinks he’s the toughest matchup available for UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira . Blachowicz welcomed Pereira to the 205-pound division in July 2023 at UFC 291 but was on the wrong end of a split decision . Pereira went on to finish Jiri Prochazka to claim the vacant light heavyweight belt, then achieved his first defense when he knocked out Jamahal Hill at UFC 300 this past month. Blachowicz (29-10-1 MMA, 12-7-1 UFC) is still adamant he won the initial encounter and would love to run things back with Pereira (10-2 MMA, 7-1 UFC) to prove he’s superior. “He is not a better fighter than me, and I believe that I deserve the rematch,” Blachowicz said in an interview with Fanatics View
