I like jiri…

Guess that makes me a homie!!

He's the man

based homies fr

Yeah BS you guys are just riding the wave mma fans are so fairweather love you today hate you tomorrow

I think he's spiritual, not religious.

@@Counter-Intuitiveevery entrance he prays to who I don’t know but he does the cross symbol on his chest

@@Counter-Intuitivewho cares? No matter what religion he is we riding with Jiri for life

He makes the cross symbol every fight

Him and Joe talking about DMT would be great lmao

Are you sure?

yes!

He’s not underrated lmao everyone loves him

If you were Japanese you'd say Osu

As a Canadian, he gives me GSP vibes . (obviously not quite) but a GSP starter kit at least.

Great to hear! I'm a Canadian/Czech with the same surname as Jiři, and actually know a few of the same people as him. He's become an absolute legend and role model in the Czech Republic, and I couldn't be happier about it.

Couldn’t agree more! Absolutely love this guy! He will be champ again 🔥

@@SillyOzzy I truly think so

He’s always been on my radar but witnessing his fight vs Rakic showed he’s different. I think he beats pereira in rematch.

I can relate to you bro. same here !

Yellin at the tv😂

Yeah, I only noticed Procházka when he went into UFC and I'm rather glad. Watchin his fights live is stressing.

Watching that fight last week made me lose my voice before the main card shi was immaculate

Bro 😭 its literaly life lesson to calm down before his fight, to depersonalise and just watch it 🤦🏻‍♂️😅 I’ve never experienced this in any sports ever, I actually never watched sports except NBA Michael Jordans era… I am always pumped for Jiřís fight like kid infront of christmas evening 😂

Souhasím

First and Last lol

I'd say european samurai

Yeaah

Nah, not until Jiri starts checking leg kicks. Otherwise he'll be TKO'd even sooner.

Alex isn't a good matchup for Jiri.. only ppl who are beating Alex are ppl that can match him with the striking (Izzy) or someone who will wrestle him.. guys who are mainly stand up fighters aren't beating Alex, he's to skilled of a striker

Not necessarily he was dominating Alex on the ground. If he can finish him on the ground by capitalizing it's game over

@@DynastyIconJiri was winning the whole fight until that Marc Goddard stoppage…

5 years ? Can i ask you how is your Czech language ? do you struggle even after 5 years ? or you can understand everything ? i just want to know how difficult it is for foreing person

@@doposud Nemluvim Cesky! I had to say that a lot in Prague ha. My Czech was ok better than most of my English speaking friends but I've forgotten a lot as it's been 5 years since I came back to the UK. It's a very difficult language to learn for native English speakers for sure

@@seanvik No worries, lot of Czech people dont know Czech language either :D

Procházka in warrior path 👍🏼🫡🙏🏼

Absolute murderer

they could fix their mistake by giving him tittle shot which i hope he gets , but we have to wait and see

Probably because that fan lives in the heart of Vegas which is a scary place . Jiri is like a lion I wouldn’t approach him during his pre fight rituals either.. get you spinning elbowed like Dominick Reyes

I would like to see him fight Hill next, and if he wins, get him the title shot.

i mean hill would be no problem for jiri so it'll only build the hype for jiri vs pereira 2 or jiri vs ankalaev

I think Hill is definitely the underdog against Jiří(but he has potential, his prep shows he thugs through)-I mean it, he should have seen these coming, yet he was confident in throwing. The reasoning of how and why people judge Glover vs Hill/Procházka is very misleading, and "seeing what I want" kind of a thing. Hill needs to get stronger, to have not rely on throwing baseballs, and to get an actual handfighting chance against guys Like Pereira, Procházka, or Rakić. I think Hill is favourite against Ankalaev, but Hill´s style is an amalgamation of what Jiří started with and competed against,+ solid grappling. Fighting Hill seems like it would "Turn ON" the old Procházka, no matter how Jiří felt, and that would be a bad day for Hill most probably. Hill has good legs, but he needs to be leaner and stronger. He was getting hit with the same things Procházka was in their glover fights. Hill has the tools, but he needs polish and reconsideration, Procházka needs to use what he has better. The rest of getting better as can, same as everyone. The angles and guard of pereira are wide, yet stable, with a wide handfighting range and torque, there is a reason why "fast strikers", try to throw overhands or other, especially why advancing, they do not quiite succeed with the setup, because, they aren´t fast enough(Ooh, Baby!). They need to match Pereira from "that far", and make an opening. He catches TDs like a main character. Grabs a sack, and walks back at worst. The lack of effective reach the fighters "feel" has its reasons. Pereira can keep you from going in, is big, mega stable, and can get one over you with basic handfighting, which carries "mandatory" leg kick punishment. He is broad, as far as his advancement angles, he can protect and attack from wide angles. Pereira is effectively inches longer than reach suggests, as being pushed or parrying from basically any angle the guys use, doesn´t require a center of gravity chance, or a noticeable posture reaction, hence how he "whack a moles" them. Ther e is areason why he swats people away, secure with his footing, as they borderline stumble, or as they extend enough to be punished for it, hoping they have the timing down. Guys looked desperate fighting him, and Procházka was by far the better. Hill needs more strength, you can´t get you punches in, when faced with a sarlac pit like Pereira. He is extremely torqy, and the angles he commands are miserable for the opponents. Hill needs to get leaner and stronger. Improve cardio/approach to what he can and cannot do, be more critical. Pereira is extremely well worked as a fighter, I am not saying he is unbeatable, but he has really hit his stride, and the guys need to be more active within what they know they can do, not like Jiří pressing Alex, thinking him too hurt to get back(like Izzy vs Alex), or Hill thinking he could just outstrike Alex, in the condition he was in, yet the guy has your reach, and you cannot get anything in, where is the "factor" you lean on, if you want to win? Looking for openings that Alex basically never has. What is that, bro. Get into the details and keep yourself alive while pestering the other guy. There is gotta be something concrete as far as physical preparation you can lean on. Just get leaner, jamahal. Or is that the leanest you can get, visibly fatter than all the others? A bit of Rhomboid, better pelvic floor is not needed? "An orthodox Procházka" is favourite based on build alone, that I think is something a coach should see. There is something unadressed in the Hill camp. He can do better. Jiří is favourite against Hill, as Hill was. He has extra points ge can get posture wise, more than the others, IMO, he should go after it. Procházka can fight Ankalaev aswell, but I am not sold on Ankalaev. Hill is IMO a clear underdog right now, yet he can get way better, so IDK who Jiří should fight. Is there anyone deeper in the ranks, that could surprise? The guys might be as good as Rakić or Ankalaev. I don´t know, "feeding" someone to a top centender isn´t something to propagate either..

@@sonatine-on6ishill is coming off a lose.. so why does he deserve to fight again the number 2 contender who just made a statement win?

@@sonatine-on6isKid, please. He is N1 contender no doubt

Mindset surely helps , but you won't defeat your opponents with only a mindset.

@@doposudConor said fighting is 100% mental

​@@besmart2350 So there is no physical part of fighting ? Mentality is a big part but it's not 100% more like 70%.... If you want to get philosophical advice about fighting , best thing you can do is watch Cus D'amato. Connor was great at using that mental aspect in trashtalking and getting into opponents head no doubt about that. but he still proved his skills in a cage .... I have no doubt that being mentaly strong helps you win the fights , but it's not the only thing that wins the fights.

@@besmart2350 It's as important. If you have the best mindset in the world, you will never win anyway if you can't fight and gas out in 15 seconds. On the other hand, you can be the best fighter on the planet and you'll never win if you crumble under pressure and give up.

Agree, its his spirit, he is incredibly tough, for example against Pereira he was out for split second but his body never stoped, you can watch it, first he said he was out and its ok stoppage, he said it out of humbleness, it was almost automatical as he didnt want to make excuses on the place, but later he said he was able to continue, and he was able to survive and even twist it, but he didnt say it out of excuse, just made statement.. and he was after sickness in that fight, there are no many people that can understand the mindset needed for something like this. He is also kind of warrior that need to feel oponents power, he need it to wake up that killer instinct in him, to bring him completely into flow.

He is like Kuroki Gensai from Kengan Ashura

@@gutsglory3625 Yes, or like Hiko Seijuro from Samurai X. Both same traits like Jiri 😄😄.

Jiri vs ankalaev is doable if pereira wants to move up in heavyweight. It would be a great war.

@@gutsglory3625 HW is stacked with fighters that generate PPV and there is line for that tittle already .... LHW biggiest cash cow is Alex , from business point of view idk if Dana wants it ....

As a guy who is studying Hinduism it’s one of the reasons he is my favourite fighter

Its kind of pradox, for Example Musashi after defeating his last oponent Sasaki Kojiro never fought again, he wrote book, draw Art, he found out through mastery of sword, or art of fight the truth of peace, on contrary there are many individuals following “right path” that never found truth, its biggest pradox of life.

He had poatans number by getting dropped and eating 10+ elbows to the temple?? Or do you mean when Alex was chopping his legs away completely and he couldn't move very well?

@@daquist18 Well yeah that all happened, but he also got Alex on the ground throwing elbows in round 1 and he was winning round 2. He took some shots to the temple while trying to get Alex on the ground, which he did and then the ref ended the fight. He was conscious at all times. In the Rakic fight he also got his leg hurt and came out on top. So yeah still think he had his number. But we'll see i guess.

Jiri and Pereira are my favorite fighters,the stoppage in their fight was a little bit early but Jiri can not Take 8-9 elbows pushing a takedown,it was a mistake from Jiri.

ilegal elbows

robbed is a bit of strong word. the guy was on his back getting repeatedly elbowed in the face until he couldn't defend himself.

i wouldn't say robbed but considering Jiri's durability ref could let it go for few more seconds to see the result of that brawl....

elbows ilegal.jiri rook him down and want to fight more

​@@tasnemecek5575 elbows aren't illegal in UFC. you must be trolling.

That's how the start of a lot of jiri fights look though

Checkout more of Jiri fights and you will see this patern all the time .... Jiri getting smashed and then he turns it around and finishes his opponent

Literally everywhere I go, I only hear praise on Rakic in that fight. Nobody is belittling him.

"was" dominating the fight. Jiri put the pressure on Rakic and he broke him. He would do the same thing 9/10 times

Ariel's questions require complex answers and Jiri's English is not so good yet.
