Alex Pereira is poised to headline UFC 295 against Jiri Prochazka. The former middleweight champion is set to take the main stage against the former light heavyweight champion. Pereira recently made the jump to the light heavyweight division, where he clinched the title. What’s even more significant for him is that he will be facing the man who brought about Glover Teixeira’s retirement.
Amidst all the commotion, one might expect both fighters to be under immense stress. However, in the case of Pereira and Prochazka, it’s quite the opposite. These fighters appear to be remarkably composed about facing each other. Prochazka is honing his samurai focus just days before their bout, while Pereira is occupied with creating prank videos.
