Jan Blachowicz hopes he can disrupt the UFC’s plans of a rematch between Magomed Ankalaev and Alex Pereira . Ankalaev (21-1-1 MMA, 12-1-1 UFC) defeated Pereira (12-3 MMA, 9-2 UFC) by unanimous decision to become light heavyweight champion in Saturday’s UFC 313 main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Blachowicz’s past two fights came against Ankalaev and Pereira. After going to a split draw in his title fight against Ankalaev at UFC 282 , Blachowicz (29-10-1 MMA, 12-7-1 UFC) lost a split decision to Pereira at UFC 291 . He will look to rebound when he takes on Carlos Ulberg (12-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) March 22 in the UFC Fight Night 255 co-headliner from O2 Arena in London. With a win, Blachowicz targets another title fight against Ankalaev, followed by a rematch against Pereira.
