Teixeira: "I will finish Prochazka in the third round"

Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Glover Teixeira spoke about his plan for the upcoming rematch with the current belt holder Jiri Prochazkoy, which will be held on December 10 at UFC 282 in Las Vegas.

Recall that the first meeting of these fighters took place in June and ended with the victory of the Czech by choke hold in the fifth round.

“My plan is to deal with Prochazka as soon as possible. I think around the third round I will finish the fight with a knockout or a submission. I will be patient and turn on aggression at the right moment. In the last fight, I acted too actively, and when it was necessary to carry out a choke, I did not have the strength due to the high pace.

Now I plan to hold positions more, control myself on the ground and turn on only when necessary, ”said the Brazilian in an interview with All Access MMA.
