Yep. He was rocked for a tick in the 1st and recovered while under pressure from Vulcan. He re grouped and threw more volume in the 2nd. What a finish.

@Nirvana - Jiri should fight OSP or  maybe Johnny Walker next ?

Let him build up some wins before taking on Jon Jones

Jiri and Thiago Santos would be fun. If Jiri has his hands up, I could see him being a champion.

Jiri is such as athlete, but need to work on technique and with that under wraps, watch out LHW's.

Absolute sensational finish from Jiri Prochazka! No one has come close to doing that against Volkan Oezdemir...Prochazka could well be a big player in the Division especially with that power 🥊👊👏🤔👍

I still want to see Santos get his proper shot at Jon without two blown out knees.

@Brad I love Gus but he has struggles against power-punchers in the past, take Rumble for example.

Maybe in his prime but if he can lose to Anthony Smith nowadays Jiri can probably beat him too.

Well I lost all of my money on Draftkings but a Volkanovski Usman parlay would make me feel somewhat better, but at this point I feel like I jinxed that one.
