Jiří Procházka, a Czech professional mixed martial artist, was born on October 14, 1992. He is currently a light heavyweight fighter for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), and is a former champion of the division in the promotion.
Procházka was the inaugural light heavyweight champion of both the Gladiator Fighting Championship and the Rizin Fighting Federation. In April 2012, Procházka made his professional mixed martial arts (MMA) debut with the Gladiator Fighting Championship.
Procházka was scheduled to defend the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship against Glover Teixeira at UFC 274 on May 7, 2022. The fight was rescheduled for June 11, 2022, at UFC 275 for unspecified reasons. Eventually, Procházka won the match and the title by submitting via rear-naked choke.
Procházka was supposed to rematch Teixeira at UFC 282 on December 10, 2022. However, it was discovered on November 23, 2022, that Procházka had lost the title after being forced to pull out of the fight because of a right shoulder injury.
Procházka faced Alex Pereira, the former middleweight and current light heavyweight champion, for the vacant UFC light heavyweight title on November 11, 2023, at UFC 295 in New York City. He lost the fight by a second-round TKO. Moreover, the light heavyweight giants are set to lock horns again on June 29, 2024 at UFC 303 for the title in the main event.
Jiri Prochazka Girlfriend
Jiří Procházka is not in any relationships and is largely known to be currently single. There have been speculations that Procházka might still be dating, but he keeps his personal life private, so it cannot be verified. As a result, it is largely assumed that Procházka is a single man.
In mid-2022, Procházka claimed in an interview, “I am living in a forest next to the lake in Bruno. And I like to live more alone, but I want to share my ideology, my ideas, and my style of fighting.” He continued, “So I need to be a little bit famous. Now for my career, it’s important to be like that—to be alone and just practice and practice because I can stay pure, clean, and without no distraction, no relationship.”
According to reports, Procházka was in a long-term relationship with Kamila Kordulikova. Procházka is a private person, so the only information about his ex-girlfriend that is available is that she is a lawyer. After dating for a while, Procházka and Kordulikova broke up around the time the Czech mixed martial artist signed a contract with the UFC.
Before Procházka's first-ever UFC light-heavyweight title match against Glover Teixeira, the two did, however, reconcile. But the two permanently broke up soon after his UFC title win at UFC 275. It's clear that Prochazka is now totally focused on his MMA career and has moved past his former relationship.
