I am surprised by Bogdan's performance, and by the toughness of Blachowicz's chin. I already knew about his mental strength, but I didn’t expect he could withstand those blows at this age. Bogdan could have finished him in the second round. Apparently, he did not want to rush. For Bogdan, this draw is definitely a step forward. It is good for his experience, it will affect his ranking, and his relationship with the UFC will improve. After taking these fights, you can talk about the championship. In the third round, Bogdan was not stunned, he simply lost his balance. If it hadn't been for that ending, Guskov might have been awarded the win.
Bogdan Guskov fought Jan Błachowicz on December 7 at UFC 323, and the bout ended in a draw.
