I wish that we could understand Jiri in his native language. He's clearly a smart dude and a deep thinker, but the language barrier prevents him from fully expressing his spiritual concepts and thoughts.
As czech i can tell you there is not much difference between his speech in English vs Czech he is just different his answers are short and spiritual if you don’t understand him in Czech you are not missing anything 😂 deep
@@olivervasak1138Like GSP lol im from quebec and its always funny to hear about his "accent". He talked the same way in french but more fluid maybe xd
It’s definitely top 3 the Jon Vs Gus one was so significant at the time. Jiri is special for fights though even Dominick Reyes fight was so insane watching it. I really liked watching Jan against Reyes also.
Absolutely I’m happy he’s the main event I could watch him fight every weekend win or lose all time favorite I know it’s two different people completely but him and TJ Dillashaw call time favorites lol
Jiri wasn't 100% during their first fight either, considering they were saying he wouldn't return for a while, then announced him vs Pereira, it's fair to guess he rushed his return a bit. He might be in better form now than he was in their first fight
Samurais are psseys. How many japanese champions have there been in UFC history? That is right, zero. Only 2 top-5 fighters in the history of the UFC have been of samurai descent (Okami and Taira), both hugging machines terrified to be in long exchanges on the feet
@jaydaniel2145 Stop overreacting so much for a freaking comment and making personal aggravations/assumptions out of it, champ. It was just harmless fact, I know some snowflakes will be buthurt. Jiri being promoted as a samurai by casual fans just cause a couple years ago he read a book about them, is funny, tho
I went with Alex the first fight because jiri was coming off an crazy shoulder injury that could have been career ending and he did way better than I thought. He might not win but I think this fight will be a lot closer
Yea he was doing really well until the ending sequence ain’t even tryin to sound sarcastic. And I’m not counting jiri out at all. again I think he has a better shot this time around and he superseded the expectations I had for him going into the first fight
Jiri is a very dangerous opponent. To be fair I think he was winning against alex at their last fight … But honestly there is just something special about Poatan. I do think we are all witnessing a true legend of this sport … Chama 🔥🗿
Jiri a sage guy, he walk the path of the worriors for real, and he's really really true here and now, he live just in the present moment... i can see him 🙏
Ever since that reyes fight ive been a fan. The way this guy puts pressure is insane. He needs to stop pushing forward withchis hands down especially against alex.
Jiri it’s his destiny and he’s gonna reclaim and win back his title. He deserves it. He can beat Alex you’ll see. He was giving Alex problems and was winning the fight and he knows what he did wrong and he was sick before the fight didn’t get to train much for and this time he trained better like he normally does and he’s gonna smash Alex this time. You’ll see, a fighter like Jiri is special. He is more durable then Alex, Alex has been knocked out you’ll see
Honestly i feel he was winning the fight and was starting to land more shots prior to the flash knockdown this time i feel its just destined for him to get the belt back and set up a huge trilogy maybe in MSG again!
I was following Perriera from Glory but these last 2 weeks I started watching him on YT teaching other fighters on different techniques. What I can say man, NOBODY will win against Alex P in the striking NOBODY. Even Jiri style is not enough to beat him. I see only a Dagestani who might win against him 🤷♂️
I know its a hot take to jiri fans which i like him too but, his philosophy as a fighter in the "UFC" is flawwed. He needs to study film and prep and rehearse accordingly. You cant just feel and twirl around a spear and nunchucks in the woods and pad work in the gym. I get his personality but hes very very lucky for this oppurtunity.
I’m a fan of Izzy but let’s be honest, Jiri lives that lifestyle day to day. It’s different than identifying yourself as something and not practicing it
@@cpilfold420about ending someones life in thirty minutes thats not true. Just because someone is trained and competes doesn't make them superhuman. Anyone can end anyone else's life with one punch mind you but that's not strictly just for MMA fighters, but human beings in general
It's not s schtick. Might be silly to you sure, but he really does live like that. I'm from Czech republic and I have been fan of his for years. He talks the talk and walks the walk trust me, Jiri is not fake.
Prochazka is a lump inflated by Dana White, he was a champion beating a 42-year-old Old Texeira, there is no Daniel Cormier, Jon Jones in the heavyweights. Prochazka and Hill are second level fighters, The Semi Completes are empty since the departure of Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier.
Jiri only been in the ufc for a short amount time and yet every single one of his fights are some of the best I've seen
And his fighting style is fun too, very unorthodox like MvP & Tony Ferguson
Pereira is exactly like this also
He is getting knocked out
wat about jon Jon's
@@avg_user-dd2ybyep, if he does that thing without moving his head again
Jiri's stats in a video game: Defence -100, Attack +300
Endurance : +800
Yeah chammmma
+1000 samurai
Fam said "DEFENCE" 😂😂😂
unfortunately you need a little bit of defence against Pereira.
I wish that we could understand Jiri in his native language.
He's clearly a smart dude and a deep thinker, but the language barrier prevents him from fully expressing his spiritual concepts and thoughts.
His english has already improved tremendously though. It will get only better.

@@KZ_MMA-KZ I’m CZ and can tell you it is not the language barrier. Jiri is just … Jiri and his mind plays its own Mortal Kombat.
Tbh it’s kind of the same, English does a better job at making a point etc
Him vs Glover is the best 205lb fight ever and one of the best of all time. Maybe top 3.
Best ive seen
Agree
It’s definitely top 3 the Jon Vs Gus one was so significant at the time. Jiri is special for fights though even Dominick Reyes fight was so insane watching it. I really liked watching Jan against Reyes also.
Watch the Hooker vs Porier fight at Apex a few years back.....my goodness
@@jasonstrevels3098 not 205Lb
This interviewer is great hope they keep using him, good questions worded perfectly
Even if Jiri losses the rematch, im still going to be a huge fan. Jiri is a true warrior!
Facts , I feel the same exact way 💪🙏
If you're really a fan, then it shouldn't matter if they win or lose.
I like the questions this guy asks. Not so much about jiris life style, but more about the fighting.
More of this interviewer needed! Actually asks interesting questions about the fighter and the fight itself!
This guy is my all time favorite fighter. And he's gonna get a W.
Absolutely I’m happy he’s the main event I could watch him fight every weekend win or lose all time favorite I know it’s two different people completely but him and TJ Dillashaw call time favorites lol
I like jiri a lot but no he isn’t ready and still!
This fight is so much better than McGregor vs Chandler. The only downside is that Jiri and Alex won't be at 100%.
which is still even for both of them, so none of them can make excuses after the fight.
I think are really tough part isso many of us want them both to win too haha. Def agree I’m so much more invested in this as a supporter/fan
@@Youssef-hd5blAlex with broken toes and quick weight cut or Jiri who took lots of damage and has an easy weight cut?
Who’s more compromised ?

i love this guy, hope he wins this Saturday.
I really like that Jiri agrees that’s it’s weird that Alex took the fight. That it wasn’t necessary
Alex feels guilty that he wasn’t suspended after those illegal back to the head elbows
@@besmart2350 Nice fanfiction bro.
@@AirLancer watch the finish again. It is indeed illegal elbows to the back of the head. Alex playing dirty
@@besmart2350 The Refs and broadcast team don’t agree with your assessment
*"The truest opponent is inside us." I love this dude. He's so right.*
alex and jiri could fight 100 times and i still wouldnt know who will win the 101th
Jiri vs Alex 1 was a close fight. It would be another close fight I think. Both are incredible.
HE'S COMING!
This is a great interviewer
Respect for both fighters, legends
Maybe it’s been a while since I’ve watched this exact thing, but I like this interviewer I’ve never seen him
It's too funny when he says "good job" after getting hit in the face. 😅
Perfect Storm is coming this Saturday.
I went with Alex the first fight because jiri was coming off an crazy shoulder injury that could have been career ending and he did way better than I thought. He might not win but I think this fight will be a lot closer
Bro he only lost due to illegal back of the head elbows
Yea he was doing really well until the ending sequence ain’t even tryin to sound sarcastic. And I’m not counting jiri out at all. again I think he has a better shot this time around and he superseded the expectations I had for him going into the first fight
Jiri’s style does not allow him to prevent getting those leg kicks.. leg will get punished again.
Jiri is a very dangerous opponent. To be fair I think he was winning against alex at their last fight … But honestly there is just something special about Poatan. I do think we are all witnessing a true legend of this sport …
Chama 🔥🗿
The storm ☔️🌪️🌊🌨️
When he starts hitting his chest in the middle of the fight you know its friggin on. War Jiri.
If anybody in the world deserves an underserved title shot its this guy😊
Jiri a sage guy, he walk the path of the worriors for real, and he's really really true here and now, he live just in the present moment... i can see him 🙏
Thank the MMA Gods that Brett Okamoto didn't take this interview
Alexs Kicks -🗿☢️☄️🦼
Jiri has had less fights in ufc than Alex.. nobody ever brings that up
Jiri my favorite fighter so fun to watch
1:55 why'd he have to look at the camera like that as if Jiri is making big excuses.
Really good questions 🙌🏼
I really hope he wins this time.
Early stoppage. He could have maybe come back from it.
Is ESPN ever going to fix the quality of the videos? Feel like I'm in 2011
They help you feel nostalgia for better times
Jiri by 1st Round KO
Ever since that reyes fight ive been a fan. The way this guy puts pressure is insane. He needs to stop pushing forward withchis hands down especially against alex.
The idea that Prochazka can compete at middleweight is very interesting
Both fought last the same night but jiri took more damage in his one. Hope jiri gets it done
hear that jet engine noise coming from Jiri's breath at 00:25????
Let’s goooo Jiri 🧩🐢
Alex is such a goat. Took the fight when he didn’t have to
UFC PLEASE KEEP ANDREAS OVER BRETT OKOMOTO.
Hope you win Jiri. You're a good man.
Im rooting for u to win jiri
You got this Jiri! You will win
Jiri prochazka always brings the heat! This is a better fight than mcgregor/chandler. I'm over that one
Ain’t no way this fight goes the distance
Very cool guy. Lets go Jiri
Why does Espn have such shitty cameras for this interview
i feel like he makes it a point to keep his hands down
It is a taunting style. He is baiting his opponent by looking vulnerable and then making reads based off that
Jiri it’s his destiny and he’s gonna reclaim and win back his title. He deserves it. He can beat Alex you’ll see. He was giving Alex problems and was winning the fight and he knows what he did wrong and he was sick before the fight didn’t get to train much for and this time he trained better like he normally does and he’s gonna smash Alex this time.

I love Jiri
Hold down r2 and l2 to constantly check leg kicks. Just keep it held down jiri
Honestly i feel he was winning the fight and was starting to land more shots prior to the flash knockdown this time i feel its just destined for him to get the belt back and set up a huge trilogy maybe in MSG again!
Alex went into the fight for money

"You're not a man of excuses but what went wrong last time?"
I was sick and preparation was bad this camp was not good either
Fake samurai
@@LoylaDemiseem shut up hater
He doesn' t use it as an excuse, he's just saying how it is. Would you like him to sugercoat things or lie?
Unless Jiri turns to wrestling and grappling, Alex would beat him again
Is it me or he looks less confident? I like jiri and want him to win!
He's not a samurai, he's a fantasy rpg character with barbarian/monk multiclass. BJP!

Let’s take a second to appreciate the guy interviewing. I can’t lie I was not a fan of Okomto interviews
Samurai spirit wins this time
Jiris broken English is even intimidating
Too bad a mind like Jiri's is held back from expression by language.
i understand czech ur not missing out on much
@@waleedss99 Haha, thanks.
🔥chama
Alex sleeps him 😢
🥋
he gonna get knocked out again
He doesn’t even seem confident
This dudes leg got absolutely destroyed in his last fight.
He’s out of the woods!! ☺️
Alex may not be well prepared for this fight...we shall see

Jiri had success in the first fight, so what you're trying to say makes 0 sense

Ask Rakic
Bro he lost and he doesn’t sound confident anymore it’s already over boom
Jiri is fun too watch fight, but his "I'm a samurai" schtick is so silly.
