If you’re not interested, let me know, says Procházka to the silent Teixeira! What did he say to Blachowicz?
Jiri Prochazka is enjoying his UFC title and looking for his next opponent. Fairly recently, he decided to announce who he would fight and chose a rematch with Glover Teixeira. This upset Poland’s Jan Blachowicz, who believed he was next in line. How does Prochazka see it?

With his UFC title win celebration behind him, Jiri Prochazka can now turn his full attention back to his next fight, which he hopes to see later this year.
After his win, there were various names floated as to who he would fight, but Procházka himself only considered Jan Blachowicz or a rematch with Glover Teixeira.
He chose the rematch, which annoyed the Pole as he believed he was next in line, plus the BJP said he was his biggest challenge. Prochazka has now reacted to his words.
“I never promised you a fight. I only said you are a challenge I want to break. The second thing is that I’m still waiting for a response from Glover Teixeira. If you’re not interested, let me know. I want to fight before the end of the year, no matter who,” he tweeted.
That means one thing, Blachowicz still has hope. Because Teixeira, at his age, needs a longer recovery and time to prepare, so he may very well want the fight later.
Thus, in that case, Prochazka may well choose someone else and it would probably be a Pole. But there are many more options.
