Former UFC light-heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz would be willing to make a gruesome cut to middleweight for a world title rematch with Israel Adesanya.
The Polish powerhouse is a particularly big light-heavyweight at 6'2", and cuts from as high as 230lb to make the 205lb limit for bouts in his weight class. And despite not having weighed lower than 200lb at any point in his careers as a Muay Thai or MMA fighter, he believes that if a title were on the line he could get 20lb off and make the middleweight limit.
Blachowicz beat Adesanya to defend his light-heavyweight title last year; the one loss that the middleweight champion has suffered in the MMA cage. And after losing his belt to Glover Texeira in October, he is contemplating a one-time move down to offer the middleweight champion a fairer rematch.
