Ukrainian UFC fighter paid tribute to Teixeira

Ukrainian MMA fighter Igor Poterya shared his impressions of the fight between Jiri Prochazka and Glover Teixeira.

“I am delighted with this confrontation. I am very happy for Prochazka. He deserves this victory. The battle was intense, the initiative constantly changed hands. It seems to me that such Jiri imposed on Glover to stop breathing. However, in the fifth round, Teixeira surprised everyone. He turned on like that, inflicted significant damage on Prochazka. However, he made one mistake and paid for it. I want to express my respect to him. He achieved his goal, at 42 he became the UFC champion.

Recall that the Loss will debut in the UFC on July 30. His opponent will be Nicolae Negumireanu.
