"I had to keep the course of the whole fight in my hands, every detail. Because up until the moment of the knockout, I was leading this fight. It was my mistake, a very small mistake, but such small mistakes have no place in our game. That's why I try to improve on little things like that - to be the best," InsideFighting quoted Prochazka as saying.
The bout between Prochazka and Pereira took place last November at UFC 295. Prochazka lost by TKO in the second round. After that, Jiri did not appear in the octagon.
