Jiri Prochazka is easily one of UFC’s most dangerous and accomplished fighters. Fighting out of the light heavyweight division, this 6’4 former division champion is currently looking to reclaim the UFC light heavyweight championship. Now, he is getting ready for a high-stakes clash against fellow former champ, Jamahal Hill at UFC 311 after two failed attempts to get the title back.

But we’re not here to talk about fighting here because that’s going to happen pretty soon when we get to Saturday. With him being the fighter in focus, let’s get to know the self-proclaimed ‘Czech Samurai’. So, without further ado, let’s look at what we know about his relationship status.

Well, Jiri Prochazka has hardly ever posted anything about his relationships on his social media handles because all fans can find there are posts related to his fights. The Czech national makes use of his social media handles to display his ‘Samurai’ lifestyle and his unusual training methods.

Jiri Prochazka may not be in a relationship now, but he had a partner in the past. However, things were a bit shaky in that relationship, and ultimately, the couple separated. Now, we don’t know if he has a new partner because he prefers to keep that aspect of his life out of the limelight.

Meanwhile, let us take a look at his former partner.

Jiri Prochazka’s ex-girlfriend

However, there was a time in Jiri Prochazka’s life when he was dating or was in a relationship with a lawyer named Kamila Kordulíková. Apparently, the two dated for nearly 8 years. However, there was a time when Prochazka and Kordulíková went on a break for nearly two years. After that, they found their way back to each other again but broke up shortly thereafter, and this time for good.

However, there seems to be a little confusion as to when the pair actually broke up. Some sources suggest that Prochazka and Kordulíková parted ways back in 2019. However, other sources suggest that the two got back together again and finally broke up for good in the summer of 2022. There’s also word that Prochazka doesn’t have any children of his own. Unfortunately, there is no way to confirm that, since Prochazka doesn’t mention anything about it.

‘The Czech Samurai’s goal is to become famous through his work and he is focused on becoming the best version of himself right now. “I am living in a forest next to the lake in Bruno. And I like to live more alone, but I want to share my ideology, my ideas, and my style of fighting,” said Jiri Prochazka in a 2022 interview. But what about his parents? Let’s take a look a look at the details on that front.

Jiri Prochazka’s father and mother were of different ethnicities. While his father was a Czech national, his mother had her roots in Vietnam. But at the age of six, the former light heavyweight champion lost his father, who worked in law enforcement. But he did not pass away in action. Rather, his death was a result of a stroke at 27 years of age. “He had no life really, and I had no dad to point me in the right direction,” Prochazka told Bez Frazi. On the other hand, it is also reported that the UFC star has three siblings, but very little is known about them.

Although the Czech star never had a role model in his life, he did have his mother, who is still alive and in living color, who Jiri Prochazka describes to be a “decent lady.” Having grown up under his mother’s care, Prochazka adopted the ‘Bushido’ lifestyle while training at the Jetsaam Gym in Brno and adopted the teaching of ‘The Book of Five Rings’ by Miyamoto Musashi to shape his values.

Jiri Prochazka will be looking to get back on track after suffering another knockout defeat in his attempt to reclaim the title. Well, his opponent is thinking the same and this fight could very well get them right back into title contention. Let us know your thoughts in the comments down below.
