Alex Pereira’s Jon Jones UFC White House Plans Forces Jiri Prochazka to Make Major Career Decision

Alex Pereira believes his destiny lies in the White House. The fight card is scheduled for June next year. To cement his legacy, he appears to have found a perfect dance partner: Jon Jones. On his part, the former heavyweight champion also expressed positive vibes. Still, much remains to be seen in the days ahead. The event at the presidential residence is months away, and the card has yet to be finalized.

However, even for a potential matchup, Alex Pereira vs. Jon Jones seems to have generated a tide whose waves are spreading far and wide. One of those presumably affected by the ripple effect is none other than Pereira’s former opponent, Jiri Prochazka. Early last month, the Czech fighter delivered a scintillating performance that took the wind out of Khalil Rountree Jr. The win strengthened his position in the light heavyweight division, putting him in direct line for Pereira’s crown. But with the Brazilian setting his sights elsewhere, Prochazka’s plan appears to be in limbo. But he may have a solution, though.

Speaking to the media, Jiri Prochazka made it clear he might move to the middleweight division if a trilogy bout against Alex Pereira fails to materialize. Sharing further details, he revealed that he is currently comfortable fighting at 93 kg. However, dropping to 84 kg would be a bigger challenge. But he may consider it seriously.
