Jan Blachowicz is in disagreement with UFC commentator Joe Rogan's actions following fight against Magomed Ankalaev at UFC 282.
In a recent interview with MMA Fighting, the former champion looked back on the fallout from his title fight on December 10. The 39-year-old believes that Rogan should not have told him that he lost the fight as he was still trying to process the events that had just unfolded:
"Joe Rogan, when he stepped inside the octagon, he said for him, I lost the fight. That was something what, you know, I was thinking. He did a mistake that he say something like this to me after the fight. Because everybody who thinks I lost the fight, watch only the last round. For me, draw is a fair decision and seriously, I think I was closer to winning the fight than Ankalaev... Joe Rogan, he shouldn't say something like this to me after the fight. I was stuck in the last round and then Joe Rogan says, 'That was a good fight, but for me, you lost the fight.'"
Blachowicz took on Ankalaev for the vacant light heavyweight title at UFC 282 on December 10. The event ended on a controversial note as the five-round fight was declared a split draw by the judges.
In his post-fight octagon interview with Ankalaev, Rogan said that he believed the Dagestani to be the rightful winner. Blachowicz then got a hold of Rogan's mic and asked for the belt to be handed over to Ankalaev.

Jiri Prochazka weighs in on Jan Blachowicz vs. Magomed Ankalaev
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka does not believe that Jan Blachowicz and Magomed Ankalaev gave it their all at UFC 282.
During his appearance on Ariel Helwani's The MMA Hour, Prochazka shared his thoughts on the fight and stated that he was underwhelmed by the two athletes' performances:
"They [Magomed Ankalaev and Jan Blachowicz] not gave 200% to get the title. Because for me, it's simple, if you are in the UFC and if you are fighting for the title or every fight it doesn't matter, you have to fight for life."

Prochazka was originally scheduled to headline UFC 282 in a title rematch against Glover Teixeira. However, 'Denisa' had to withdraw from the fight due to a shoulder injury, resulting in a new title fight between Blachowicz and Ankalaev.
