Undoubtedly, in my view, UFC 282 is one of the best of the year. In the main event, Jan Błachowicz will face Magomed Ankalaev for the Light Heavyweight, while in the co-feature, Paddy Pimblett will meet Jared Gordon for the Lightweight. Both of these fights will be absolutely amazing to see.

The “Polish Power” man can also knock everyone to the ground, with a rate of 1.08 knockdowns per 15 minutes. In 2021, he scored three against Israel Adesanya.
