Following the fight, he proclaimed himself as the best light heavyweight in the world despite the fact that Blachowicz KOed him just last year in the UFC. <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/ufc\/corey-anderson-fires-back-at-jan-blachowicz-reminds-him-that-i-left-you-looking-like-elephant-man\/\">While it&#8217;s true that Anderson did beat Blachowicz the first time they met at UFC 191 in 2015<\/a>, Blachowicz has since gone on to become the UFC light heavyweight champion. Since he is the champion, you have to give him the credit he deserves.<\/p>\n<p>Not so far, according to Anderson. As far as &#8220;Overtime&#8221; goes, he is not sold that Blachowicz is the best light heavyweight in the world. In fact, he believes that if Glover Teixeira beats Blachowicz at UFC 267 this weekend, it would prove that Anderson is the best light heavyweight since he&#8217;s the last man to beat Teixeira.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t upset me, I think it\u2019s cute it upsets him. He\u2019s the one being vocal about it. I never said his name once in the media. All I said is \u2018I\u2019m the best in the world.\u2019 He ran with it. Now he\u2019s just bringing more attention to me. Every time my name gets mentioned, I\u2019m getting more followers. He\u2019s out there saying my name with Ariel Helwani and now people are looking me up. It\u2019s cute, thank you,&#8221; Anderson told <a href=\"https:\/\/mmajunkie.usatoday.com\/2021\/10\/corey-anderson-if-jan-blachowicz-loses-to-glover-teixeira-debate-on-no-1-light-heavyweight-is-over\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MMAjunkie.com<\/a>. \u201cYou\u2019re in the bigger league, whatever you want to call it, I\u2019m in the lower league, but you know I\u2019m a threat. You know we\u2019re 1-1, that\u2019s all I gotta say. I\u2019m not worried about it. I\u2019m worried about Nemkov and getting that Bellator belt around my waist. He\u2019s got a fight to worry about. He gotta worry about Glover and remember, I beat Glover. I am Glover\u2019s last loss so he loses that one, that debate\u2019s over.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Do you agree with Corey Anderson about how MMA math will prove he is the best light heavyweight in the world if Glover Teixeira beats Jan Blachowicz at UFC 267?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bellator light heavyweight contender Corey Anderson explained how using MMA math will prove he&#8217;s the best light heavyweight in the world.
