jiri prochazka warned of poor striking defence ahead of UFC 295: ‘that may cost you against Alex Pereira’

Henry Cejudo warns Jiri Prochazka about his striking defence heading into his bout against Alex Pereira.

On November 11, two of the UFC’s most devastating strikers are set to do battle for the vacant light-heavyweight title. After successfully defeating Jan Blachowicz in his first fight at the 205lb limit, Pereira was immediately slotted in to be one half of the fight for Jamahal Hill’s recently vacated title.

Having never actually lost his title, vacating his title after suffering a shoulder injury, it was only right that Prochazka was granted shot upon his return.
