Former UFC champion in two weight divisions Daniel Cormier shared his thoughts on the upcoming fight in the promotion’s light heavyweight division between Jiri Prochazkoy And Alex Pereira.

Recall that last weekend at UFC 291, Peyreira made a successful debut in a new category for himself, defeating Jan Bakhovich by a split decision.

“This is a tough fight for Pereira because of Prochazka's strength. He will really have to feel Jiri's power, but it cannot be said that he has not encountered power before. On the day of the fight with Blachowicz, he weighed 225 pounds, although he weighed in at 205. He is a large and massive fighter,” Cormier said on the DC & RC podcast.
