Yesterday, in the co-main event of the UFC’s return to Germany<\/a>, Sweden’s Alexander Gustafsson and Poland’s Jan Blachowicz went at it in an intriguing light heavyweight showdown.<\/p>\n

The opening moments of the bout saw Blachowicz, who was a sizeable underdog, find some success on the feet, though this only forced Gustafsson to shift gears and utilize his ever-underrated grappling. This trend continued for the bout’s duration, as Blachowicz would score with his strikes, only to be taken down and controlled by his towering foe. The end result<\/a>, then, was a clear-cut<\/a> unanimous decision win for the Swede, who had not won a fight since March of 2014.<\/p>\n

Despite their competitive scrap, the two light heavyweights rendezvoused post-fight to share a beer, as seen in the video above. The video was shared to Gustafsson’s official Facebook page<\/a> and captioned:<\/p>\n

“Jan Blachowicz<\/a> you are a great fighter and a true gentleman. Thank you to all my fans for all the support. I really needed this.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Gustafsson was quick to refer to Blachowicz as as his “Polish friend<\/a>” when the fight was first announced. Evidently, the pair’s friendship was not hurt by their battle.<\/p>\n
