Rakic on Prochazka: Substitute for the title? He doesn’t even speak proper English! He will be forgotten, like many others before him
Aleksandar Rakic came up with another statement regarding Jiří Procházka. He doesn’t want to fight him and the Austrian fighter doesn’t like it too much. Now it looks like he’s made his peace with it, yet he hasn’t let Prochazka off the hook.
Aleksandar Rakic came up with another statement regarding Jiří Procházka. He doesn’t want to fight him and the Austrian fighter doesn’t like it too much. Now it looks like he’s made his peace with it, yet he hasn’t let Prochazka off the hook.
Jiri Prochazka is the replacement for the fight between Jan Blachowicz and Glover Teixeira. If this fight works out, he will most likely be facing the winner of the title fight.
But that doesn’t sit well with Alexander Rakic, who wanted Procházka to fight the winner of the Blachowicz-Teixeira fight.
Because of that, he’s making comments about Procházka everywhere he can. However, the Czech wrestler does not answer, which certainly annoys him even more.
“Jiri has 2 fights in the UFC and he should go for the title right away? He’s got the hype and the push from the UFC. It was similar with Chandler. He had one fight and immediately went for the title. But Jiri doesn’t even speak proper English.
I don’t know why that is, but his time will come. He’ll be forgotten, like so many others before him. Like Johnny Walker, Volkan Oezdemir and others. They all had a push from the UFC, then they lost and they were done. Itwill be the same with Jiri,” he said in an interview with MMAFightingonSBN.
It looks like Rakic will have to settle for a fight with Anthony Smith, who is ranked No. 4 in the UFC rankings, right behind Rakic.
