Speaking to MMA.PL, the 205-pounds champion and the victor of the UFC 259 main event, Jan Blachowicz, opened up about the 'bias' in the commentary and how he felt about it.
"I heard that commentary was biased. I thought they are both professionals... I don't know if they lack professionalism or they love Adesanya so much that they couldn't even see that he was losing the fight. It doesn't really matter to me. You have to ask them what it was about," said Blachowicz.
Jan Blachowicz went on to take a shot at Daniel Cormier for 'seeing only one fighter' inside the Octagon.
"This also shows what a fake guy Daniel Cormier is. On one hand, he congratulates me, writes some tweets, and then he comments on the fight and sees only one fighter. I only make a private opinion there and that's it," said Blachowicz.

Despite several fans and fighters claiming so, Daniel Cormier is absolutely adamant that the commentary during the main event of the night was not at all biased. Answering a fan on Twitter, DC said that he rewatched the pay-per-view and did not agree with the general consensus about what was said at UFC 259.
Whether Daniel Cormier is biased towards Israel Adesanya or not, it is clear that he is not fully impressed by Jan Blachowicz. While discussing the UFC 259 main event on an episode of DC & Helwani, Daniel Cormier ranked his arch-nemesis Jon Jones as the best 205-pounder on the planet ahead of the current light heavyweight champion.
DC also revealed on the podcast that Jan Blachowicz had approached the table after his win and said to him, 'Now I show that I am the real champ'. In response, Cormier said, 'Jan, you have always been the real champ. I am so happy for you, buddy.'
Daniel Cormier also posted similar comments on Twitter, asking fans to 'put some respect' on Jan Blachowicz's name.
