I dont think theres a single MMA fan who dislike Jiri, he is so cool and a great man!
rakic cringe fans but theyre gone now
He was getting more cheers from the crowd this fight as he deserves. He's a great man and fighter. And for me a role model.
@@yaboicaden200bros a legend even though I wanted Alex to win in the title fight he went out like a g. And in this fight while compromised he managed to throw heavy hands to get a nice finish I love this guy.
Him and Alex are the best in UFC
oh you gotta be new here
He might not be able to articulate his mindset into English, but if you watch him fight, it speaks for itself.
He gets his point across perfectly when speaking English
i understand him just find...maybe you?
He fakes his broken English.
He is doing great for someone who came into the UFC not knowing any English
Damn you said that well🫡
Bros chin and samurai autism is literal plot armour
lmao
Not against Alex
guy was praying in front of the arena before the fight
@@lightner6924 fluke stoppage
Samurai autism XD
I fucking cant bro hahahahahaha
Sorry Jiri but you are absolutely a Samurai
He's a winner, and you're a loser
preach.
Repping Jiri 4 Life.
Jiri will always be my favorite fighter ever 🔥
Gae.
@@johnnybravo6951 what did you find sexual about his comment?
@@johnnybravo6951bros insecure about his masculinity 😂😂
@@angelfrancisco8256 so is your dad. That's the only reason he made you...
Jiri is getting a lot better at english with each post fight, he's gonna be fluent in a couple more fights which is kinda unreal
i think he struggles expressing himself even in his native language bc he talks about very deep spiritual things
@@AXharoth Yes, that's true, but his most exciting beliefs are understandable and inspiring in both languages because we know the context. Anyway, he is a fortunate guy to have such a chin.
@@AXharoth yes
he speaks the same in czech language , thinks deeply about everything that comes from his mouth
If you imagine Alex living in USA with glover unable say sh*t
@@FL-be3sb But in czech he's quite eloquent. There's nothing wrong with taking your time before you speak. Too many people these days speak too fast and think too little
Jiri is my favorite fighter ever. His fight was the main one i cared about on the entire card so i am very happy.
Ya he’s fun
I literally went berserker when he won
Title: "I am not a psycho"
Jiri's grin in the thumbnail: *Pure Psycho*
It’s exactly what a psycho would say too
@@twiceshy6613 :D ..... so are you trans ? no ? exactly what would trans say ... :D
@@doposudlol
he is definitely a psycho😂
😂😂😂
Yiri’s inner meditative martial artist energy is unmatched.
What a bullshit sentence if I've ever read one.. "inner meditative martial art energy"... your so dumb
Not Yiri but Jiří ( czech ) or George ( uk )
You must be one of those starbucks baristas who put "Yuri/Uri/Juri" on my cup even though I spell it for them.
@@hejlik4859noone ever named him George wtf
Bro is chill asf
I’ll never forget telling my buddies about jiri when he was still with rizin “i heard the ufc is trying to sign a champion from rizin and this guys a real savage”one of the best calls I’ve ever made as a sports fan
Someone that doesn't just say "im here for that belt baby lets go!" And mma fans dont know how to handle it so he must be a psycho. God forbid he have a unique personality.
It’s his fight style too, not just his personality. He is reckless and unorthodox, it usually works for him though. It’s somewhat counterintuitive and can be a little frustrating for some to watch, even his own fans. It’s all part of what makes him exciting though
@@twiceshy6613He's unique
Yep that’s as monotonous as the ufc/espn pushing fkn DC&CHAEL show every bloody advert
Let’s gooo🤮
This new era of fans (nelk boys, young omallys fans, influencers, ect) won't understand the pure warrior spirit of jiri or where he's coming from. Violence and war and happiness
Fuck yeah ! Let’s go !!!!
The Light Heavyweight BMF!!!
Delete this lol
@@davidwright8450 Nope
There should be BMF titles in all categories
@@canalufcfightNo there shouldn't be any stupid BMF belt, however if there has to be one tonight it clearly goes to Max.
This is pure disrespect to Max
Best post fight interview ever. Period. No questions.
yeah man 100%, i already like this guy, now hes top tier!!!!
Jiri's fight autism was too strong
stupod
I found the incel
why everyone is telling that he is autist I dont understand?
@@griggsz9649 how do you know if he is muslim?
Aweh you used your favorite buzzword little guy, congats! @griggsz9649
Honor in defeat. Honor is victory. Jiri is a true Samurai that embodies the Bushido spirit. He lives by the code and dies by the code. In a sport full of fake clout chasers like Sean Strickland, it's refreshing to see truly Honorable men like Jiri shine.
Amen
True
Jiri will always be my favorite
facts
Well said!! 👌
When the Master says he’s still learning and developing that’s a true master speaking!. 👏👏👏👏
It's what all fighters who have had success need to do. Keep evolving. So many fall into the trap of thinking what has worked, will always keep working. But they are being studied by their future opponents. People work out what they're doing and formulate how to counter it. It's probably tempting to stick to what you know, tedious to never stop being the student, so it's really good to hear him saying this. Guys will eventually understand how to deal with him... if a fight goes long enough, within the fight.
Jiri is so cool and individuell. I really love to watch his fights.
Hey Jiri I know you probably will never see my comment but I want to let you know. I’ve been going through such a tough time and you are a Hero to me. I felt there with you in Spirit. Thank you Jiri. You woke me up yesterday!
“I am not a psycho” is exactly what a psycho would say.
so what would someone who isn't a psycho say? "Yes, I am a psycho?" lol
No youre false Just false
@@zen8704 it's a joke
@@zen8704 A normal person wouldn't even consider this possibility 😂😂
@@zen8704 Sean Strickland. Acts extra to appear he is Psycho but jabs opponents for 5 rounds.
I dont know if he means to be funny but I find myself laughing my ass off whenever he speaks, love this guy.
I think he is one of these guys who is naturally funny. I like his persona. He really is cool too. Still his looks remind me of Tom Hardy the actor , blue belt in BJJ
“You have to follow your wison (vision) in an honest way.” - Jiri Prochazka. Words of wisdom from the Champ.
Jiri has a special kind of intensity. His body language and the way he uses certain words. Very cool 😎
Jiri is a fan favorite win or lose!!
So likeable. Already a legend.
When Jiri fights ; it is pure joy ; and artistry ; win or lose ; all he cares about is the performance ; and in wanting the victory ; he will always bring his best ! Absolutely Inspirational. Job Well Done.
He deserves the rematch, he did way better than hill against pereira and even had him hurt in some moments, jiri rematch lets put an end to the controversial stoppage and let the better win
Yeah man hill and Justin got humiliated today
Ankalev or aspinall next probably
Jiri was dominating most of the fight in fact. He just lost a ton of muscle mass, which made him lose a lot of power. He used to have an absolute touch of death. If he'd have had his old power when fighting Alex, he'd have taken him out.
@@TheStraightestWhitest He probably was physically lacking after his injury but still, he only landed like 1-2 clean punches on Pereira
@@ImagoofybaII He won first round and on second round there were moments that he had Pereira hurt. Fight could go either way, but Pereira has the touch of death.
I like this guy he’s a humble true warrior, courage and integrity 🛡️🥋🥊❤️🔥✨🙏🏼😇
That video of jiri was from my page 😂 he’s not a psycho he was chill and took a pic before he started the meditation routine. Once he started I wasn’t bothering him anyway lol I was more shocked he was just out there solo
He's absolutely not a psycho he's just a crazy fighting man.. Give him the bonus Dana!
he got it. ;)
"I am not a psycho. I am a samurai"
jiri is the man, a true samurai... but man hes borat when speaking... i absolutely love it
Fighters are actually the normal ones. Everyone else is inhibited and scared to express themselves. Like all these robotic media guys asking questions
100%
Expressing yourself can manifest in many ways. It's not that deep
also language barrier with these questions combined will always make it a bit weird
that's why Alex P. uses translator even tho he lives in the USA now
@@troy3423 You can express yourself in infinite ways but it still starts with being uninhibited and comfortable with yourself regardless of who is around. Basic shit
When I played football and wrestled I felt free. I could release all my emotions and push as hard as I could
I fuckin love Jiri
Legend
Forever a student. This is why he will remain great.
If Jiri got as much time to recover as Rakic had… he may have been in the main event tonight defending against Hill.
Early stoppages suck
Dude admitted himself it wasn’t early stoppage. He got shlumped get over it
@@Coochie_Killa never met a coochie killa on YT on a Saturday night
@@Coochie_Killanonsense
Fans will call that an early stoppage but say Adesanya vs Peirera 1 was justified
@@Jet92 not me.. I wanted Alex to win but always think you gotta go down and not defend yourself for at least enough time to see objectively the fight needs to be done. Only exception is if a fighter asks the ref beforehand to stop at certain signs/situations if they don’t want excessive damage. Otherwise they all agree to be stopped you gotta be clearly out
What a great mindset. Love it, how Jiri connect fighting with spirituality. Don't know, how people can make jokes about it. He has the mindset warriors had hundreds of years ago (I assume). And I personally are thankfull, that such characters still exist in this world.
some MMA fans just dont know how to handle his mindset (next to Mcgregor, Strickland, Covington, etc), so they make jokes about it.
for those who assume Jiri sounds confusing only in his english, his czech is just as confusing :D he's just a different kind of human
One of the greatest fighter 🔥
I’ve been siting in a coffee shop sipping my flat white and regularly burst laughing my ass so loud while listening to this interview. Jiří is such a legend!😂
Chuck Liddell got me into this sport, Jiri is the finest example of why I'll always be a fan
Jiri is my favorite fighter.
Jiri you are my favourite fighter 🔥🔥
o yesss a real psycho never will say he is a psycho i think this would be the last time somebody will say he isn't a real samurai. I dont understand his style but godamn this guy is wild
His style is hunting and seeking for a KO. And he pretty good in that.
@@VeanBain Justin Geathje also
UFC should start offering their international fighters an English teacher so they can embrace giving their interviews in English like Jiri. He’s started learning English in 2019 and look at him now he’s very articulate and has the ability to speak English. It’ll be very helpful for them to sell their fights because they’ll be more comfortable when receiving questions.
he didnt start in 2019 :D he improved a lot since 2019 but hes learning english his entire life you may not know but jiri is well educated he even has a college degree and in czech schools the english language is mandatory subject for every student.
yes. but its hard to when you get so many punches in the head
Racic spinaches would put away anyone but Jiri! Insanely durable head!
He’s like an action figure computer game comic book fighter. 👏🏾
🇨🇿🇨🇿🇨🇿🍀🥊Opět nezklamal, krásná práce mistře, přeji bujaré oslavy a doufám, že za námi zase přijedeš do Brna. 😁Budem se na tebe těšit Vítězství. ✊
This card was fantastic. The biggest mistake on the entire card was this man not being in the main card. He has never done anything but put on a great show and I hope the Ufc never over look him again
Respect to jiri he seems very authentic
I love that Jiri aknowledges and is willing to make adjustments... I think he can be Champ again
He may feel like a Samurai. But bro must have Viking roots. He fights and looks like a burzeker Viking.
His favourite literary character is Gotrek Gurnisson. Enough said.
Born like berseker teach you to respect discipline and mastery of samurain... maybe?
Much love champ
Great night !!
I love Jiri so much, an inspiration 🔥
I love this guy. He's so humble.
He did fight smartly but it was definitely entertaining
I love to see someone like him have so much success with people and fans... We need good values, inspirational (and interesting )human beings , even in those weird times.
He gonna get the title again soon.
not gonna happen with Alex there
@@Phizzuurp false
@@Phizzuurp If he bulks up 10-20lbs, he's winning the rematch. All he needs is a bit more power.
If he stops blocking punches with his face, then sure.
@ilynomad that's the crazy thing, Jiri was not really in that fight like Rakic was, he got destroyed by those leg kicks and that gave Rakic also the advantage in movement. But Jiri did not seemed to be bothered a lot by that, and those kicks was INSANE. He pieced Rakic up, even though this was not his fight.
THIS GUIE WHEN HE WAS FIGHTING HE WAS THINKING AND GIVING HIS PUNCHES..
I respect Jiri. The Czech language is very different from English and he does a great job working with the language barrier to say what he wants to say. He is tough and talented.
All the boys love Jiri
I don’t understand and see how Bo nickel can be a main card bout instead of Jiri. Can someone please explain to me?
Cute ears. All American. You get it.
Or charles Olivera, I am so pissed why they did not get him 5 rounds. He was dominating … why is the UFC doing it to him. He is a recent champ after all. Not fair to him
@@itakarerio2821"he was dominating" are you blind?
@@itakarerio2821no he was not dominating he was even with arman
Such a big fan of this guy and how he holds himself outside of the cage.
I love his fighting style, he tries to get into the flow state and let his body do what’s appropriate at that moment.
Straight up love listening to this guy talk 💪
Dude is a Viking Samurai
Man what an absolutely perfect comeback win by Jiri, phenomenal 👏👏👏
This man is the best he flipped and stood when Alex “knocked him out “ rko if snything
Thanks Yiri..i needed to hear that message right now ☝️👊
Surprised Jiri isn't more popular. He has to be 2nd best in that 205lb division after Alex Perriera. He puts on the most exciting fights. If he can make some slight adjustments when he fights Perriera again...
I really feel that without that shoulder injury and time off, he would have beat Alex. If it had been regular time off and camp for Alex right after Jiri fought Glover, I truly believe he would've won.
Legend 🔥🔥🔥
This dude is absolute legend.. you can tell he really truly wants to be the best, the best period best fighter best person he can be in every way possible.. he has a fan for life in me 🙏
The fact that Jiri has come so far with a style that absolutely shouldn't work is amazing. Imagine if this guy decided to keep his hands up lol.
He is my favorite fighter of all time. I would love to see him fight for the title again. Must see tv
“I wanted to target my targets to target him”
I'd love to see you speak czech
@@screamskilos3951 not even just czech, lotta dummies poke fun but don't even know any second language. Jiri is badass and his english has improved so much
"When I was 16 years old I started to watch my vision of the best version of myself in this life."
Gotta love this guy 🏆
Man I love the guy, him, Lyoto and Crocop are really good examples to follow! Glad he won, it was unreal to me he was in the prelims
When I started watching UFC in 2014 the first thing that crossed my mind was: why are these 'reporters/journalists' - whatever - asking such stupid questions.
10 years in, they evolved like... my socks
Absolute legend Jiri is...
He ate big shots of rakic like toffees
He is not a psycho. Just a fkn animal. I was mesmerized how he took those shots and just stormed rakic
Absolute WARRIOR 💪🏻
after watching his first ufc fights i thought he was just a gifted creative striker but he seems to have a very deep reflexion on himself and his practice i really like him
Jiri is for real inspirational.
Hard not to like Jiri, he seems like a good dude
One of my fav fighters. Cool dude and a great fighter.
"when you want something, that something wants you Too" Jiri Quotes
I respect you Jiri and it’s great to see someone learn from their mistakes I hope to see you against periera again bro in #2
Unbelievable... Jiri has the Spirit to fight in any Era against all the best.
Long live Jiri man. The guy is a great role model and he is intense but in a good way
I think that Jiri Prochazka has a lot of potential to be an actor in a film, especially war films, but for that to happen he would have to improve his English, He has an excellent personality in MMA, I don't know if he really believes what he says but he looks like a game character, If he improved his English to the point where it was very similar to American it would be good to see him in Sparta 😂😂😂
That’s exactly what I was thinking. He’s like many of the lead characters from action novels. I would have loved seeing him play one 😂
Jiri has an amazing mindset and outlook. Great fighter, loved watching his career. He can be reckless, I can't see him getting past Alex but it's an interesting match up. 🙏
He lost already why will they put them again let the division move
Jiri had a long lay off before fighting Alex for the belt, which Jiri once held. There is no other competition for Jiri at that weight class.
Jiri’s not like, “I have to check the leg kicks”, he’s like, “I to block his punches and keep moving forward”. This guy is different
Love Jiri. Love how he tries his best to articulate English and he’s hilarious.
Dude kinda reminds me of the T-1000 from Terminator 2. You can hit a hole in him and he’s still coming after you.
Cory Sandhagen & Jiri are just so fucking fascinating to hear speak about unarmed combat and fighting.
I absolutly love it!
Great comeback from Jiri
Questions were shit but he did very well based on his style to keep coming forward and taking some heavy hits - jeez. My nightmares aren't that bad 😅
0:00 good evening 😂😂😂😂 the way he says it
