Next fight
After Alex Pereira defeated John Blachowicz at UFC 291, UFC President Dana White declared a title eliminator, making it a foregone conclusion that Prochazka and Pereira were destined to fight for the vacant light heavyweight belt. Prochazka believes that this fight will be a great fight for the fans and he would still like it to happen this year, as his injured shoulder is finally 100 percent healthy.
“This is my next fight, [it] will be for the title. So I think Alex is [the opponent], [and he has] a very good chance to show the world a good title fight. And I would like to see him as my opponent in my next fight,” Prochazka said recently on The MMA Hour.
Net Worth
Jiri Prochazka’s net worth is estimated to be $1 million as of November 2023.
Wife
Jiri Prochazka is neither married nor engaged, and according to various sources, he is not dating anyone. This is also reflected in his social media profiles. Prochazka prefers to keep his personal life, including his family and parents, away from the public eye.
Loss
Upon further repetition Goddard’s decision made a little more sense. Prochazka was clearly reeling after Pereira’s right hook, and could do nothing as he fell backwards, enduring inhumane punishment from his opponent.
The loss got Prochazka’s comeback from a horrific shoulder injury off to a rough start, but the Czech fighter was showcasing the skills that made him champion a year and a half ago, until everything went by the wayside.
