Finally some new blood at 205.  I'm  really pumped about seeing him finally get signed.  I think a good debut fight for him would be with Gian Villante.

With UFC planning a Poland show I hope they somehow get Khalidov,Tybura,Grabowski and Gamrot. **** it grab Pudz as well for the lols. him vs Harris or Nandor could be funny or awesome :p And the HW division needs all the excitement it can get.

Blachowicz before Khalidov...well at least it's a good signing for zuffa.

Starting to think Khalidov wants to fight C-level fighters in Poland forever.

Yup, the contract's been in the works for several months now and has been officially signed on 17th. It's for 4 fights and since Janek is well on his way post-surgery and into rehabilitating the injured knee that has been bothering him for a long time, he should be able to make his Octagon debut in a few months. Goodbye, KSW.

Solid signing for them.
I doubt UFC ever gets Khalidov, he makes way more in KSW beating B and C level guys than he would fighting the top 10 in the UFC. Maybe they can get him in a few years but he will be at the end of his career and not worth anywhere near the money he is wanting.

Good singing indeed. I have been waiting for the UFC to sign him for a while. I really think he is going to turn a few heads. I've mentioned him to my MMA friends and none of them knew who he was, which was disappointing. He is one of the "unknown" bad asses of MMA ( unknown by the main stream of course, not hardcore fans)
