As the only man to defeat Israel Adesanya in the UFC, former light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz credits his ‘legendary Polish power’ as the difference-maker in their light heavyweight title fight at UFC 259.

Blachowicz, who defeated Adesanya on all three judges' scorecards, shared his secret to victory during a recent interview with Sportsnaut (h/t MMA News).

“It was because I’m Jan Blachowicz, they are not,” Blachowicz said. “This is the biggest difference. In this fight, I took my legendary Polish power with me. That’s it. This is the secret, legendary Polish power. If I don’t forget it in the hotel room I beat everybody.
