My first time breaking down Jiri, dude is CRAZY!
Jiri has such a unique and unorthodox style, that spinning elbow KO was a thing of beauty. Thanks for a great break down! How do you think he wins this weekend MightyMouse? Decision? KO?
Love from Canada.
Do yourself a favour and watch some of his early fights, he had some fun KOs in Rizin
Awesome breakdown. Sick KO 🔥
Please do the latest Haggerty fight!
Taking all them shots from Cruz is different from piera I think he lack of high guard on the feet will get him out down
If Jiri doesn't finish the fight in the first 2 rounds Alex will compromise his movement with calf kicks
Interesting take 😊
Yes but alex will slow down a lot after the first 2 rounds. Jiri’s pressure might cause a lot of problems to Poatan
alex is using hes energy smart@@squiddkos02
@@squiddkos02why alex will slow down after round 2 🤣🤣
@@squiddkos02Sean is also a constant pressure fighter so I think poatan can deal with pressure, but Jiri is so unorthodox as well
Fun fact: the 2nd upkick at 15:28 temporarily ko'd Jiri, he even mentioned it in some interview.
I just saw that he said that crazy
Bro literally passed guard while asleep. What a Chad.
You can count on him getting somewhat KO'd in just about every fight :D
@@Lord_of_the_Pies
While outside the UFC he could evade strikes, after finishing his first UFC fight he said he didn't like his performance because he couldn't/didn't dodge as much as he thought he could.
to me that makes Dom look horrible...like maybe this sport aint for him
The weird thing about Jiri is you can tell he HAS technical stuff in his bag of tricks, but chooses not to use it most of the time. When he blocks head kicks, he's got both hands in the way. When he goes into the clinch, his elbows come into a pretty tight Thai plumb almost immediately. I feel like those technical moments serve as "anchor points," of a sort. He can come back to a technically sound position without much trouble when called upon, freeing him up to do more unorthodox, risky things in the meanwhile. He's like a ship that knows where all the ports are, so sails into open water with confidence.
His primitive Viking nature takes over. Makes it dirty
Many lightyears ago in a galaxy far, far away, he used to be a very much by-the-book kickboxer, in fact Czech muaythai champion, and used to fight in a relatively conventional stance with hands up, throwing mostly hooks. He simply became very ideological about fighting and created this style of his over time since he first entered Rizin.
@@f4ust85 That is correct. First he studied strict disciplines, but now he is a true martial artist. "The best form is no form, the best style is no style". He will adapt and give a new look to make sure his opponent can't predict or prepare for his attacks.
Great comment.
What a great comment
Jiri's endurance and willpower is insane and his unorthodox style may give Alex problems but he cannot tank too many shots from Alex cause he hits hard.
True but Reyes was KO ing everyone before Jones too. I cant wait for this fight. I like both fighters so much.
Who almost knocked out Jiri / wobbled him? Hasn’t he been almost ko’d many times in UFC? Peirera won’t hurt Jiri. He’ll put his lights out
@@Oldcrack3rlol are you comparing dom with alex? 😂😂😂
@@deinpapa5622 literally comparing a 12-6 mma fighter to a two division world kickboxing champion...
7:34 This is something Jiri's favorite Samurai, Miyamoto Musashi, talked about. How when your opponent is tired, or hurt, or off balance, you don't give them even a second to recover!
Also watch how Jiri attempts to finish his opponents, while considering this Musasho quote:
"The sure way to win thus, is to chase the enemy around in a confusing manner, causing him to jump aside; with your body held strongly and straight."
Watching jiri makes me feel like he is just flowing and going with whatever comes available. The reason I say that is because it feels like jiri is imposing himself with this crazy movement but when reyes decides to engage, most of the time, jiri seems to eat it because I feel like hes more focused on his plan of attack allowing him to get hit. Dangerous for him and for opponents imo.
I think he eats it because his arms are low and his chin is in the air. He has success through being unorthodox and being a big guy. Honestly I’m thinking Alex will destroy him round by round but who knows.. anything can happen in mma 😄
Crazy thing is Jiri stated that he was out cold after the upkick from Dominick at 15:27
15:30 Jiri didn't mean to pass guard- he got knocked out by the kick to the head and fell into position 😂
well he wanted to get there but was only able to do it in shadow realm
I was watching this fight last night and all I could think was “Reyes had to think it was hopeless at a point.” He was being shut down by pace/ pressure but even the shots he got in seemed insignificant to Jiri. The mentality to keep fighting in a hopeless spot is commendable
that mentality by reyes, which i agree with you, is the reason he lost the fight. physically, he could have won this fight maybe even should've won this fight
IMO if Jiri is going to win, he will need to overwhelm him with his pace. Much like how he did in that crazy round first round in Rizin against Vadim Nemkov (Nemkov quit on the stool). He set a pace, and did not relent.
I reckon he knows it is too dangerous to be traditional, so he will be feinting takedowns (may be get him down) to break Alex’s rhythm but off the feint he will throw something WILD!
Werent those rounds really long? 10 minutes a piece?
@@mr5timewcwchampgood point! Forgot that part. First round 10 mins, next one was due to be 5. Changes my point about pace slightly BUT, we know historically he can keep an insane pace
nemkov fought twice in 2 days , think that definently didnt help
same as Jiri but he lost to king Mo@@jaw9095
@@jaw9095fair but that is commo in Rizin. Jiri himself fought afterwards too against King Mo.
I really love how awkward Jiri fights, very unpredictable to another fighter.
is awkward just the term used when someone fights "unconventional"? cause i feel like jiris style is more natural and loose compared to other fighters who are tense and traditional. although id say dominic cruz has an awkward style where its more deliberately unconventional.
As a ufc fan and a betting man I’ve never been so scared on who to bet on . Two of the dangerous guys in the ufc going at it anything can happen
Same, might just take the safe bet of fight not going to the judges parlay'd with something else lol
same here haha, might as well bet on the better odds
Would not recommend betting on someone who fights as funky as jiri lmao
Jiri grew back his Antenna 📡 hair
(That's what Jiri calls it)
He has such a unique fighting style mixed with a great fight IQ. He is one of my favorite fighters to watch compete.
Thx for these Breackdown 🙏 keep up the good work champ !
Watching fights with the one and only DJ is great every time🙏🏽Hope you’re feeling good Mighty Mouse God bless
LETS GOOOOOOOO MIGHTY MOUSE!!!! We fucking love you man!! God bless you! Thank you for sharing this. Greetings from Colombia
That spinning elbow is a classic in my Muay Thai gym, we train it every now and then, even before that fight. Was funny to see people with big bruises on their elbow after that Jiri fight tho, probably riding the hype train lol
For sure😂the bruises on the elbow was spot on
I see a lot of fighters hit the spinning elbow in one fluid motion. Jiri here pauses one beat after turning and hits Reyes with an unexpected timing. Just something I found interesting.
Your the goat Dj 🐐Beautiful breakdowns , never tired of them 🙏🏼
Always love to watch you explain fights and fighters for amateurs like us. Thank you so much! Love from North East India! ❤
love the breakdowns 🔥
love ya man! keep the vids coming!
Thanks for the knowledge champ!
Greatness recognise greatness. Excellent video and looking forward to post fight analysis.
So valuable to have a legends insight into a fight like this Thanks!
Shout out from Texas MM ur the best love thw breakdown 🔥💯🎯🐭🐭
Great stuff brother! Keep 'em coming.
So cool to rewatch this fight with you Champ. Thanx
Great video!
Mighty is the most relatable and realest dude in the MMA breakdown sphere and in MMA period. Everytime I watch him I feel like he is my old friend. Dude's an absolute killer though.
Great vid!
Love the Content Mighty !!!
MIghty, you have the best breakdowns!
Nice video MightyM!! As Czech Im so glad to hear ur opinions on Jiri and his fighting style, u are tru flyweight goat
Great breakdown MM!
Love you DJ Mighty Mouse. You're my Hero❣️Love your vid presentations👌💯
Video aside, it was so cool to catch you in Anaheim on Saturday. It literally made my day Champ.
Always excited for the goat’s breakdowns 🔥
This is a very interesting match. On paper I'd say that Pereira has the advantage because of his kickboxing background, his power and Jiri's unorthodox stance with his chin up coming at him, and the likelyhood of him getting countered with a left hook is pretty high. This could very well be how the fight goes, but I think Jiri can pull it off as well with his creativity, confusing Alex and catching him. I think this fight is gonna be determined by Alex' fundamentals or Jiri's creativity, whichever is better on fight night.
Lovin the content
You have the best break downs please keep doing them
The GOAT DJ watching ufc fights and breaking it down is top tier contebf
The best breakdown out there !!!
Great video
Would love to hear how you think the fight will finish! After hearing your Makhachev vs Volk breakdown (spot on) I’d be interested in hearing your prediction.
Nice to learn from your breakdown champ!
Jiri is something else, man. With his hands low style and odd punching angles, he kind of reminds me of Sean O'Malley, but more methodical. Also, that was one of the nastiest elbow knockouts I've seen in a while! Thanks for the breakdown as always!
Now that you mention it, parts of jiris striking does remind me of O'malley. That's a plus to each guy because i consider both of these dudes as some of the best striker/unique fight IQ's in the MMA world.
Jiri is more fluid and dynamic in adapting to the situation, he's got that unorthodox style that is constantly engaging and flowing into each new strike. Sean O'Malley is playing a more precise game of distance management and capitalising on opponents habits / errors in response to his feints and positioning. In my opinion I'd consider Sean O'Malley more methodical but that doesn't take anything away from Jiri
@@fyelow9123 exactly 👍🏻 i agree with you fully. What's interesting about each of these guys is that not only do they use unorthodox style but they each have their own way of using unique pressure to successfully pick apart their opponents but they do it in their own way. Jiri takes more damage and it's a sacrifice but it opens up openings that wouldn't be there if he didn't approach the way he does. Sean O'Malley is able to get his opponents on edge with effective feints and pressure while equally managing range/space and basically overloading his opponents to the point where they are reacting or trying to not react to his actions and it creates this ability for Sean to unleash dynamic offense and once he hurts them he is great at keeping the pressure on them. He is really methodical about how he approaches a situation but mixes it with this sorta abstract type system. (Some fighters focus too much on sticking to a game plan but these 2 have a great way of abstractly flowing with their fights, while also maintaining high level skill to their fight IQ)
Jiri gets hit a lot.
I see the similarities, but I think Sean is much more methodical than Jiri in his striking.
This breakdown is mighty!
The video I was waiting to see.
I gotta say..I love the way u break the fights down..will you be a coach for the fighters in the future???.u have that experience..imo.. I think Jiri does put that constant pressure on his opponents..not allowing them to reset which is good.. I'm looking forward to seeing if the story line allows us to get Jiri vs Hill..that would be krazy...
nothings better when one them 🐐's breaking down fight...
Great breakdown!
Thank you sir 😊🙏🏾
I love how Johnson's head reflects all the light
Fantastic breakdown! True testament and showcase of tour fight IQ. Need you in the commentating booth. DANA, give this man a mother fucking mic.
I love how Jiri has kept evolving his style since the Rizin days. His style constantly changes. His ability to adapt to the flow of the fight he is in is very underrated. His only issue, which is pretty major, is that he allows himself to get hit by big shots far too often. There have been multiple times where he's been knocked out during fights and continued. He needs to work on not getting hit by learning to roll and then counter-striking. It would do him good to get a proper boxing trainer.
He is going to have to be on his defense awareness when moving forward on Alex. But, he definitely needs the pressure to eliminate the unorthodox leg kicks Alex throws. Unless he comes in and shows a great ability to read them while playing the distance game. I am intrigued in how both fighters come in and what their style of fight is going to be. Its been a while since we have seen Jiri and I am hoping on this time off he has also evolved even more.
hey DJ! love your breakdowns as per usual, i'd like to know your thoughts on this take ! Alex Pereira fighting at distance is less favourable to him than fighting in the pocket: alot of his knockouts in glory and his KO win over adesanya in the ufc come directly after a break in the clinch or when the opponent starts pressuring too much, gets too confident and starts throwing at him in the pocket where it is SO much easier for him to land his lead left hook than for him to set it up at range. (where his opponent can simply circle or go southpaw).
Examples: vs Donegi Albena (same size as Jiri), vs Yousri Belgaroui 3, vs Adesanya 2, vs Adesanya 3
ig im just a fucking genius
One of the many reasons why I'm so torn for this fight, really like both high-level fighters. Hard not to root for both, damn.
these are the best breakdowns on TV. i will watch every single one you make big D until im dead
Hey DJ, when will you do live commentary? I bet you'd be good at it.
i think jiri leans too far forward for alex to successfully chop at his legs. I think it’ll be a check hook knockout for alex, or Jiri on points
Points? This fight definitely not going the distance no way
Can't see Alex taking this one. Jiri has decent grappling skills and Alex doesn't have the level of experience with grappling. Not saying it's a done deal, but if it goes to ground my money is on Jiri by rear naked choke
Jiri gets rocked every fight and he can’t have his chin wide open against Alex or he’ll get put to sleep. Let’s not forget he was getting dawg walked by old man Glover before he sunk in the Hail Mary sub.
Alex is a multi divison kickboxing world champion, it's not like he is easy to win against on points. He'll just defend your agresssion greatly and get more points on cheeky body punches and calf kicks. I think It's on jiri to finish pereira
@@allpraisewebb1142a lot of times these crazy striker matchups turn into a cautious decision. Don’t think that will happen but it could
Happy to see Mighty Mouse's channel.
Love not only because of you are a greatest MMA fighter but you are a good husband and father.
If there was ever a fight that was not going the distance. It's this one.
I am a big fan of both guys. I find myself saying that a lot these days too.
The thing about both fighters are... Alex and Jiri don't move backwards they are usually the more imposing fighters in the fight. If jiri moves back he usually looks for teep kicks and counter straight punches and flying knee. If Alex moves back its usually to reset and look for headkicks and leg kicks.. usually he circles to the aponent's power hand to setup most of his shots such the famous left hook and calf kicks... when these are some things I noticed in their footwork. This fight will be about counter striking and footwork and octagon generlship. The one moving forward will be the winner 🏆
That knockout never gets less brutal, no matter how many times I watch. The way Reyes lands on his head and bends his neck is scary.
Mighty Mouse is such a well spoken and knowledgeable person in the fight game.
How can anyone in media not ❤this guy, he's the best.
Not kidding I learn more from DJ then most pundits.
Would love to see the Morning Kombat crew interview and pick apart his game and fight knowledge. Brian Campbell and Luke Thomas are phenomenal fight nerds 👌
Jiri is hard to lockdown in his technique and tactical approach to combat but the dude finishes everyone! 🎉
🐐🐐🐐BaAaAaAa is all i heard, great breakdown fam
Both are fighters who put pressure on their opponents. This is going to be an interesting fight to watch! Alex Vs Prochazka 🔥🔥🔥
Great video. Thanks. Do you have a prediction? It's really hard for me to pick a clear winner here. I'm looking up for this fight.
Can't wait for this card 👊
That was a career changing elbow.
The setup you were saying Reyes needed to finish the guillotine is correct. The finishing detail that I find that works most consistent is trying to almost put your lat over the back of you opponents head and the motion should be like your trying to put their head into your pocket on that side. That way when you extend you fold their chin over the blade of your arm with more of your upper mass and really make the choke come on pretty quick. Aight, that's all! Love the breakdowns champ.
Hey Might Mouse, loving these breakdowns and learning a lot that I am applying in my own training. Would love to see you breakdown Khabib's cage wrestling :)
Great news.Jiri has got a new ponytail alreadY!
Extraordinary news. The common man has no idea the power that resides in Jiri's ponytail
Extensions but yeah
@@wlf5206 Musashi is not gonna be happy when he hears about this
@@declanblaisure1449 bro I don't think he's gonna be streaming the fights six feet under, bad connection probably
he has his own ponytail but yeah, not as impressive as those extensions@@wlf5206
Just want to appreciate DJ
Mighty M! Great commentary!
Who is an opponent you have faced that was the most conditioned or athletic?
Thanx
Getting knocked down into side control was still my favorite part from this fight its so good😂

Can’t wait for Saturday
They need start looking at elec bikes like they do rcs. would be great for everyone if they started making affordable aftermarket battery packs so you can just swap packs at the track or wherever your riding, similar to RC cars, 6s 8s packs. Fully aware it's different, but while they work on faster charge tech, in the mean time rolling out packs that wouldn't break the bank, making it simple and ez, and a feature in these bikes imo would also help them take another step.
The way Dominick Reyes fell on his Neck/Head 🗣️ was the most awkward & concerning thing.. it's like when you see a football 🏈 player injur their neck/vertebra from getting their neck bent in unnatural ways. I'm glad Reyes didn't get severely injured from the way he landed..
one thing for certain, once jiri feels pereira's power he will keep his distance and pick his shots. so the pressure jiri putting on reyes is because reyes doesn't have that keep your distance or you will get hurt power. i keep having this image in my head where jiri gets knocked out against pereira cause of his unorthodox style and pereira's power just collide
Certain huh? You are ignoring his style because Alex hits hard? Jiri has 98% finishing rate out of 29 matches. Alex is not the only hard hitting guy in that match.. He fought hard hitting guys before I bet. i
Its not gonna be a Brand new experience thats gonna shock him and change how he fights. Hes a Champ for a reason.
@xennori1409 jiri is overrated, pereira will take him to school
@@xennori1409Nah Alex clears
Armchair fight fans always talk about shit like this. 'Feel their power'. It doesn't work like that, you don't ''Feel someone's punching power''. Every UFC fighter has fucking hard punches, you don't feel the difference when you're fighting. The difference is in technique, cardio, strategy, mentality
After the Fury Ngannou debacle why can’t y’all just watch the dang fight nobody knows wtf is gonna happen
Love dj doing these breakdowns such a great mind for this type of content. That being said Someone get this man a better magic pen so he doesn’t have to use Microsoft paint 😂😂
There was a little lag from jiri after the elbow which was intentional in order for dominick to react and open up. Then he timed it perfectly with a spinning elbow! What a great fighter.
the thing is that Poatan isn't a stranger to pressure, that's where some of his scariest KOs in Kickboxing came from, people pushing forward trying to close the distance on him, going into the void with him is a scary proposition, the difference obviously is that in MMA, stepping into the void, you can grab him, take him down, tire him out, beat him on the ground and THEN pressure and push forward, but if Jiri tries to fight Poatan in the pocket the whole time, things can end up bad for him
Your breakdowns are of high quality. 👍
I think the constant pressure goes both ways. Jiri does this but so does Alex. Should be a huge clash at some point either way.
And they both tend to have lower hands and different movement. Very interesting fight
im so excited for this fight and aspinall and pavlovich
that fight was so sick, what a fucking finish. jiri is so fun to watch!
Hello from Czech republic.
Jiri is a killer!
Bomby Jak Pica!!!!
Watching jiri again in that reyes fight, he literally stalks reyes and moves like an animal. Its quite something, now that i noticed it, i cant unsee it
He's so unorthodox for his size, along with his pressure it's hard to predict or get ahead of.
Best thing a UFC fighter can do to prepare for the fight is watch Mighty Mouse future breakdown of his own match
Mighty mouuse and dan hardy are thr mvp's of fight analysis. 👍👏
I thought I’d been watching highlights or something when you reminded us that it was still the 1st round 😂 jiri is a beast
Should’ve used the fight vs Glover for this breakdown. He got in a lot of trouble that night and showed a lot of holes in his game
Any chance you've seen Jiri's fight with Glover Teixeira (UFC 275)? Can you please breakdown that fight, it was incredible!
It’s funny the fact that the up kick dom threw from the bottom actually knocked jiri out, then later in the round hits one of the craziest elbow ko’s ever.
That man Apoo in there moving crazy
