Ivo Baraniewski considers stepping in as Blachowicz replacement

Polish fighter Ivo Baraniewski has addressed the UFC's offer for him to step in as a replacement for Jan Blachowicz. Baraniewski confirmed that the option is being seriously considered, acknowledging both pros and cons to accepting the fight. He described it as a huge opportunity and expressed appreciation that the UFC thought of him for the replacement role. Active discussions are ongoing between his manager and UFC matchmaker Mick Maynard, with both sides making proposals. Baraniewski noted that his coaches are also key decision-makers in this process. He is already scheduled to fight Billy Elekana on June 6, which complicates the situation.
