Jan Blachowicz may be close to returning to the UFC octagon. The former champion, responsible for welcoming Alex Poatán in the light heavyweight division (up to 93kg), he has not been in action since March, when he was defeated by Carlos Ulberg. This Thursday (28), however, he excited fans by suggesting that he had a signed contract.
In an Instagram story post, Blachowicz appeared in front of a contract while 'signing' the document with a sword. The Polish native also wrote "it's signed" in the caption, accompanied by clenched fist emojis.
