More Fantasy News
Set for October fight
Jotko is scheduled to face Makhmud Muradov in a middleweight fight at UFC's Oct. 31 event, Marcel Dorff of MMADNA reports.
ANALYSIS
Jotko's most recent bout was back in May, when he defeated Eryk Anders via unanimous decision at the UFC on ESPN 8 event. The 30-year-old will look to extend his three-fight win streak in just a few short months against Muradov, who is off to a 2-0 start in his young UFC career.

Takes decision from Eryk Anders
Jotko defeated Eryk Anders via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Jotko ran off a five-fight winning streak early in his UFC career. He followed that up with three straight losses and has rebounded from there with three straight victories. This was a typical Jotko performance in the sense that it won't have fans clamoring to see him fight again any time soon. Jotko has extremely limited power, and nearly all of his victories see the final bell. In fact, eight of his nine UFC victories have come via decision. He did enough to keep the inexperienced and inconsistent Anders from finding his groove, but there is still little reason to believe Jotko is a legitimate contender at 185 pounds. He has always come up short when tasked with facing better competition.

Fight with Anders rebooked for May
Jotko (21-4-0) is scheduled to face Eryk Anders (13-4-0) in a middleweight fight May 16 as part of a UFC Fight Night event in Jacksonville, Nolan King of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
A Jotko-Anders bout was initially scheduled for April 11 at UFC Portland, but the coronavirus pandemic resulted in that event being postponed. Like Anders, Jotko will return to the Octagon riding a two-fight winning streak. Jotko hasn't fought since defeating Marc-Andre Barriault via split decision last July, but he's made a full recovery from the unspecified surgery he required following that bout.

Will return at UFC Portland
Jotko (undisclosed) will return to the Octagon on April 11 and take on Eryk Anders at UFC Portland, Nolan King of MMAJunkie.USAToday.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jotko underwent surgery in October on an unspecified injury, but he appears to be back to full health. He enters the bout sporting a 21-4 MMA, 8-4 UFC record. The Polish fighter has won back-to-back fights over Alen Amedovski and Marc-Andre Barriault. His opponent, Anders, is also riding a two-fight winning streak.

Recovering from surgery
Jotko withdrew from his matchup with Edmen Shahbazyan at UFC 244 in New York on Nov. 2 after undergoing an unspecified surgery, Nolan King of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Jotko was removed from the card just over two weeks ago, but a reason behind his withdrawal wasn't known until the fighter provided more insight into his situation through social media. Brad Tavares has since been added to the UFC 244 card to fight Shahbazyan.
