UFC's 5 Biggest Winners And Losers In November

6. Stock Up: Jan Blachowicz

Light heavyweight contender Jan Blachowicz is yet another fighter who made his mark this month.

The Polish mixed martial artist earned a hard-fought split decision victory over former Strikeforce Middleweight Champion, Ronaldo 'Jacare' Souza. This came fresh off his victory over former UFC middleweight king, Luke Rockhold, last July.

The 36-year-old now has back-to-back victories over two big named opponents and is 6-1 over the course of his last seven fights.

Dominick Reyes will get the next shot at Jon Jones and the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship. However, after defeating 'Jacare' at a Fight Night event in mid-November, Blachowicz looks poised to take on the winner of Reyes versus Jones, and finally get a shot at UFC gold.
