Next week, Jon Jones defends his light heavyweight championship against Anthony Smith, but Saturday’s show in Prague could determine who is next to challenge for that title.
Though UFC Prague is flying under the radar in the midst of this dense stretch of UFC shows, the main event between Jan Blachowicz and Thiago Santos has the potential to be both an entertaining striking match and a fight with legitimate stakes. Blachowicz is on one of the hottest streaks at 205 pounds, having won four straight including a thrilling rematch against Jimi Manuwa last March that thrust the 35-year-old up the rankings.
