Jiri Prochazka is no stranger to odd training methods that can sometimes lead to the occasional oddball injury.

Prochazka has made headlines for his highly unusual workouts which include punching a tree 500 times per day and locking himself in a dark room for three days without food to confront his ‘demons.’ Thus far, his unusual methods have seemingly worked as ‘Denisa’ captured the UFC light heavyweight championship in a knockdown drag-out brawl with recently-retired Glover Teixeira at UFC 275 last year.

Unfortunately, Jiri Prochazka was forced to undergo shoulder surgery before his previously scheduled rematch with Teixeira at UFC 282.
