Volkan Oezdemir has responded to the challenge thrown by Jan Blachowicz. The Swiss even hinted at a potential location for a fight with the Pole.
Volkan Oezdemir, like Jan Blachowicz, also faced Carlos Ulberg in his last appearance. Both the Swiss and Polish representative lost their fights against the New Zealander after referee decisions.
Jan Blachowicz was very quick after the London gala to name the fighter he now wants to face. The former UFC champion just mentioned Volkan Oezdemir, saying.
– I fell a little bit in the ranking, so I don’t know who they will give me now. Maybe Volkan Oezdemir? He also fought Carlos and also lost, so maybe he would be a good option for the next fight.
