UFC star Jiri Prochazka updates fans on three-day ‘No light, no food’ training 

Prochazka’s rise in UFC was monumental as the fighter won his light heavyweight title in his third UFC bout. However, his reign as the champion was short-lived due to a horrific injury. He also lost a title fight when he returned. The fighter recently bounced back by defeating Aleksandar Rakic on the iconic UFC 300 card. 

During the fight build-up, Rakic mocked Prochazka and called him a fake samurai. The Czech fighter retaliated by knocking out the Austrian in the second round. After the fight, Prochazka agreed that he’s not a Samurai but is inspired by their culture. His famous pre-fight rituals, including some outrageous training methods, result from this.
