Let’s try this again.
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz will rematch Top 10-ranked contender Bogdan Guskov as part of the upcoming UFC Belgrade event, recently made official for Sat., Aug. 1, 2026 at Belgrade Arena in Serbia.
UFC announced the pairing earlier today on social media.
Blachowicz suffered a torn meniscus in training camp and was forced to withdraw from their previously scheduled rematch, originally planned for the UFC 328 fight card on Paramount+ last month in Newark.
Guskov wanted to shift gears and fight Paulo Costa, but it appears matchmakers had other plans.
Błachowicz (29-11-2) and Guskov (18-3-1) fought to a draw at UFC 323 last December.
UFC Belgrade will be headlined by the welterweight showdown pitting Uros Medic against Daniel Rodriguez. Elsewhere on the card, Aleksandar Rakic jumps to heavyweight to collide with veteran bruiser Marcin Tybura. In addition, Ante Delija vs. Johnny Walker hook ‘em up at 265 pounds.
