Mega Events like these are often a test of character and mindset. Prochazka is renowned for having a warrior mentality. He not only has the skill set but also the belief to beat Pereira. The 31-year-old believes he can beat the Brazilian in a striking match. Let’s see what he exactly said.

UFC 295- ‘Poatan’ vs. ‘Denisa’

The hype around UFC 295 is massive. Both Prochazka and Pereira will look to dominate the battle and come out on top. In a recent interview on YouTube, Prochazka seemed very confident about the fight. He feels he has prepared for the battle in the correct manner.

‘Denisa’ will look to reclaim the title he gave away after suffering from an injury. He started his preparation way back in August, after Pereira beat Jan Blachowicz. While most fighters are tense before a fight, Prochazka looks pretty confident ahead of the clash. 

He is confident about his striking game and feels he can beat Pereira in a striking match. He says- ‘ Yes, 100% yes, but there are the keys which I have to keep, and I will keep them. It’s already in my style because I drill these techniques into my bones, mindset, and soul. All the preparation started in August when he fought with Blachowicz. ‘ 

Beating Pereira in a striking match will be challenging, as we know the Brazilian for his power. Very few fighters on the roster can match up to him. However, Prochazka, known for his unorthodox fighting style, can cause an upset. Standing at 6 feet 4 inches and having a reach of 80 inches, he can create problems for the Brazilian. An interesting battle lies ahead of us as the light heavyweight title is on the line. 

Who will win the battle on Sunday? 

Pundits and experts have all made their predictions regarding the fight. Both fighters have very little to differentiate between them. The fighting skills and the striking game have to be on point. The margin of error is significantly less since both are dangerous counterattacks. Prochazka has returned after a horrific injury and will look to win the title.
