Former UFC champion in two weight divisions George St. Pierre expressed the opinion that Jiri Prochazka has excellent chances to win the belt in the light heavyweight division.
“I enjoy watching his fights, 100%. He is a great striker and very dangerous. Perhaps his work on the ground is not so good, we did not see him too much on the ground. He hasn't gone through many checks yet.
I would like to see more of his fights. But he is very impressive. I think he will be the champion,” St. Pierre told MMA News.
On June 11 at UFC 275, Prochaska will face champion Glover Teixeira in a title fight.
