‘UFC Negotiate With Glover Teixeira Now’- Jiri Prochazka Updates on What’s Next for Him

Jiri Prochazka with just two wins in his UFC resume will get a shot at the light heavyweight title. He will soon challenge the Brazilian light heavyweight champion, Glover Teixeira, inside the UFC cage.

The Czech Republic native secured a stunning knockout win in his UFC debut against Volkan Oezdemir. The latter is a former title challenger and is in the top-10 of the division. Prochazka, in his second UFC fight, knocked out yet another former title challenger Dominick Reyes. Both of his wins earned him two ‘Performance Of The Night’ and one ‘Fight Of The Night’ bonuses.

Interestingly, Jiri Prochazka’s two wins were enough for UFC to give him a shot at the title next. However, the 29-year-old is waiting for the dates to be confirmed, according to sports journalist Robert Rampa.

Rampa recently tweeted, “Jiri Prochazka right now: ‘UFC negotiate with @gloverteixeira now, we are ready and only asking about the date. My hands are already itching. I’m also glad the Blachowicz-Rakic fight will happen. Backup win for @JanBlachowicz.'”

However, this was not the only news about the Czech Republican that Rampa shared. He also provided an update about Prochazka’s training camp for his upcoming and first-ever title fight in UFC.

Jiri Prochazka will train with Henry Cejudo

‘Denisa’ is one of the most vicious knockout artists in MMA. With a professional fighting record of 28-3, the 29-year-old has twenty-five knockout wins and two submission wins under his name.

Although the light heavyweight fighter has a complete skill set, he will still hone his wrestling with the Olympic gold medalist and former UFC two-division champion Henry Cejudo.

Rampa wrote on Twitter, “Procházka also told he negotiates with Henry Cejudo about preparation camp early in 2022 so he can improve his wrestling and ground game. He would be working there with Jon Jones.”

Previously, ‘The Messenger’ trained former women’s champion Zhang Weili for her rematch against the current champion. Notably, he is also preparing the other two former UFC champions, Deiveson Figueredo and Jon Jones, for their upcoming fights.

Interestingly, many of the UFC fighters are opting to train with Cejudo to hone their wrestling skills. However, Weili has lost her fight, but it will still interest the fans to see how the other fighters perform after their training camp with the former double champion.
