Blachowicz Out of UFC 328 With Torn Meniscus; Guskov Rematch in Jeopardy

Jan Blachowicz has withdrawn from UFC 328 after suffering a torn meniscus in sparring, scrapping his rematch with Bogdan Guskov that was set for May 9 in Newark after their majority draw at UFC 323. Blachowicz has not won since May 2022 and his recent results include draws with Guskov and Magomed Ankalev and losses to Pereira and Alex Pereira. It remains unclear whether Guskov will get a new opponent or if the bout will be rebooked, as UFC 328 still features Chimaev-Strickland and Van-Taira.
