A post shared by Jiří “BJP” Procházka (@jirkaprochazka)

 

“I may decide for next fight, and I wanna fight Glover the next fight. Not because it will be another big fight, but just one reason: my performance was bad (in) the first fight. And I will show you why I’m the champion, clearly, decisively. And I think Glover deserves it.

“So here’s the offer. I will show you why I’m the champion.”

He mentioned how an enormous challenge is Jan Blachowicz in the division. While the comment had caught the attention of the former light-heavyweight champion who had replied with a tweet.

“Jan is for me the biggest challenge” – your words. Respect you Champ, but the samurai code was not upheld.

Prochazka just needed 3 fights in UFC to earn the title. He holds a professional MMA record of 29 wins,3 losses, and 1 no contest.
