Polish light-heavyweight Jan Blachowicz believes he will finish British power puncher Jimi Manuwa with relative ease when UFC Fight Night takes place in his home nation for the first time on April 11.
Blachowicz vs. Manuwa serves as the hotly anticipated co-main event with Blachowicz (18-3) looking to continue the momentum of what was a highly impressive UFC that saw him TKO Swedish favourite Ilir Latifi last October. Currently on a six-fight win streak, Blachowicz feels that a further two victories will be enough to earn himself a shot at the 205lb UFC Championship.
In contrast, ‘Poster Boy’ Jimi Manuwa (14-1) suffered just his first career loss against top light-heavyweight contender Alexander gustafsson in March of last year, and had previously established himself as a top-10 contender with near effortless demolitions of Kyle Kingsbury, Ryan Jimmo and Cyrille Diabate.
