Jiri Prochazka was last seen in action at UFC 295, where he took on Alex Pereira for the then-vacant light heavyweight strap. Unfortunately for Prochazka, he fell short on the night, losing via TKO in the second round.


Jiri Prochazka to return to action at UFC 300

After suffering a defeat to Alex Pereira at UFC 295 in November 2023, Prochazka is set to take on Aleksandar Rakic at UFC 300. The winner of the bout may very well find themselves being next in line for a shot at 'Poatan's' 205-pound strap.

At UFC 300, Prochazka will have an opportunity to make a statement and leapfrog other contenders in his division.

While Alex Pereira's next fight is yet to be announced, he has expressed a desire to fight former champion Jamahal Hill and then another contender soon after. It's not clear when Hill will return from inury, however.

With his recent win over Johnny Walker, Magomed Ankalaev also called out Pereira and has made his case for a title shot. It seems likely that either Ankalaev or the winner of the Prochazka-Rakic bout will end up fighting for the title in 2024.
