Jiri and Aljo's fights should be on the main card 💯🔥
Sickening Bo Nickal's being on main over these two fights. The whole damn prelim is better than Bo Nickal's fight.
Aljo is the most boring champ ever 😅
@@Laneganswake No he isn't lol
No he isn't @sairoland3969
I had no idea Jiri was fightin on 300 shows how much UFC is promoting…
He'll be in pfl soon
it was confirmed months ago after he lost
i did ive been knowing for months...you want em to blow you too?
huh@@user-kj6sm1bs9k
You must live under a rock
This man is a true Warrior. Descendant from our ancestors. Can’t wait to watch Jiri fight again
Could watch Him and Alex fight all day lol. Real life gladiators
I think we are all dependants from our ancestors lol. What a dumb comment.
Hes the most entertaining fighter on the roster but the ufc doesnt bother promoting him
The most ??? 🤔🧐
@@walterkaiyuenpang3556Subjective subject
@@walterkaiyuenpang3556 Yes. The most. Dynamic in the octagon, endless fun and eccentricity outside of it.
Exactly. He is so underrated, cuz of his english, but people wouldnt be able to understand czech in tens of years xD But he is getting better and better..
They do promote him a little bit. But that they put Bo Nickal over him on the main card is pure disrespect
Alex’s striking is levels above Hill. Alex is also the bigger stronger fighter between Him and Hill. Alex is going to finish Hill in under 3rds
Based jiri does not care about bo nickal being on the main card
Why use the word based? Some of you love to throw that word around for everything.

Haven’t we heard this before other fighters having more “weapons” than Alex, and Alex is going to have trouble in the grappling department, but time and time again Alex came out victorious. Jamahal is a big challenge and can and will give Alex a challenge to overcome, especially in the early rounds. I think Alex is got “Sweet Dreams “ figured out and knows how to approach him and will get the job done.
Well this time the real test awaits. Glover helps Alex to prepare for these fights, especially the ground game, and Glover basically already beat Jan within 2 rounds and Jiri (he threw the fight with 30 seconds left, but basically was winning against Jiri), so he could prepare Alex for these guys ground game etc. With Jamahal Hill the probelm is that Glover didnt have one second of success, like he got beat up brutally for 5 rounds, and Hill even held his own on the ground against Glover. So this time there is really only so much Glover can help Alex with, to fight Hill. Jamahal Hill is extremely well rounded and I think he is better than anyone in terms of mixing it up with standup and grappling. I also think Jamahal is the only guy who can beat Magomed.
Btw jamahal was out of action from a long time, Alex being an active fighter and had fought tough opponents in his career has a competitive edge over jamahal
Jamal’s like an nfl player in the ufc Alex is like an Incan warrior who was tested in kickboxing before going to the cage I’m Hispanic so I’m with Alex
Favorite reporter and favorite fighter let’s goo
Very interesting interview
Jamahal has 2 pistols and Alex has bazooka, so hill has more by numbers but I’ll take Alex’s buzooka any day
Remember this comment when Hill gets the knockout
id rather have the dual guns...miss once and youre domed
Hill hits way harder than Poatan. Lmfao, do ya HW. Y'all actin like Pereira still hittin like he was in GKB.
@@BlueprintGB-gz5qqOh, Poatan still has the smoke. If you think he's losing that already you're crazy. Power is the last thing to go as you age anyways
@@Laneganswake He clearly has already 😂. Do ya hw instead of sounding silly.
He also said that about himself
Why the hell is Bo on the main card? Against a a guy who is 4-5 in ufc💀
ufc needs to promote jiri better hes so lit hes like izzy artist of mma beautiful work definitely my favorite role model
Bo nickal for the main card is absolutely disgusting
Best wrestler on the entire roster with brutal KO power in both hands. He's where he should be.
Yeah and fighting dude who is 2W-3L in last 5 matches:))) Well worth ufc 300 main card lol
I love Jiri but Rakic is going to work him.
🫢
Yea same I love jiri but rakic is gonna wet blanket him
@@nicksfreedommma Vadim nemkov tried to do that every fighter that has tried to wet blanket him in rizin got slept eventually
Honor of the Czech fighting scene 🙏
Provider is still a solid contender, - Chael P Sonnen
Hill is more well-rounded than Pereira. I can see Hill winning round 4, tko. If Pereira wins, it will likely be by a unanimous decision. Pereira would have to outclass strike Hill because I don't think he would get the knockout or finish.
Hill's weapons not gonna work when his lead leg is chopped of and his body is being hit by Pereira. Hill's not gonna wrestle and that could look like how Sean went away. If u dont take's Pereira's striking seriously youll gonna hit the canvas. Izzy knew that he only had that one chance to be in alex's pocket and hit right behind his ear to wobble him. That's what he did. He didn't want to go five rounds againsg Pereira because he also knows he is a superior striker.
I guarantee he wrestles
What an utterly ridiculous comment. If Pereira was the superior striker he wouldn't have been losing every single fight to Adesanya before the decisive outcome. He wouldn't have been losing 3-1 in the first MMA fight before the TKO in the fifth if he was the superior striker. You are a Pereira groupie that hasn't got any sense. I cannot wait until 300 and should Hill emerge victorious, you better respond because I'll be here to grill you hard.
To put Jiri on the prelims and Bo Nickal on the main card is a crime. I cant watch prelims with a DAZN subscribtion, so I cant watch Jiri fight live (unless I watch it somewhere else legal of course.... 🥴🥴)
want a reliable link? hmu
Bo Nicole over Jiri on the main card is wild! Jiri said he had more tools as well how did that work out again?
Let's Go Jiri 👊
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Chama!
This will be a great fight 🔥🔥
GOAT🐐🇨🇿🌍
Unfortunately for Jiri he is fighting one of the most boring point fighters in the light heavyweight roster that is the reason their fight is in the prelims
…what
id still have jiri over bo...rakic over cody...but i like the flow of this card banger after banger after banger
Class act
Everyone in mma has more weapons yet its usually about how you use them🗿
and the sky is blue
hahaha the ending :D
Wouldn’t it be sweet if Bo got slept in round 1? Talk about Dana privilege ..
A few great weapons > several good weapons
Dog alex has the most ass defense he just hits so damn hard
Uhh what? He's lost ONE fight in the UFC and it wasn't because his defense was bad, it was because he was literally tricked by Izzy playing possum. That's not bad defense, that's falling for traps and mind games.
@@PandemoniumPirateRadio What a foolish comment. The man has gotten caught by a simple 1-2 by nearly every opponent he's fought in the UFC. His boxing defence is dogshit. It's ok to admit he has flaws like every other human being.
i will not be surprised if hill wins, he's very durable and really good basic striking fundamentals but i gotta ride with poatan
Jiri had more weapons too. If you don’t use them when you need to it doesn’t matter.
Yes I think too Jamal may be knock him out 👊
I love this guy ("black" Londoner)
And yet Poatan chopped you down. Chama 🔥
Yeah so.... You had more weapons than pierre, and you got your ass beat
Lets go Bushido! Time to get the W and reclaim the throne after ⚔️
What up, dawgz? Plz book Jerrell Miller a fight @ open weight...Hafthor Bjornsson, Brian Shaw, Mijain Lopez, Mitchell Hooper, Martyn Ford, Omos, Rikishi, Big Show, Semmy Schilylt, Hong Man Choi, Eddie Hall, Mariusz Pudzianowski, sumo guy, Greco guy, etc. Just book de fookking fight.
My goat
Damn what’s that say for Jiri?
This guy needs to get back in real shape to show true potential, can be a hall famer
he deserves to be on min card not Bo Nikal
I dont think I care for Hill's grappling, Infact I think its fairly bit overrated because of the Glover fight. Now don't get me wrong, he's no chump on the ground, but in my opinion, his standup is going to be a serious problem for Alex. Lets start with the elephant in the room, Hill is a southpaw, this is going to make Alex's general tools like low kicks more difficult and plain awkward to use. And Hill also posess' a lengthy range, yet despite that, he can work exceptionally well on the inside. And I know I said Alex's kicks would be a difficult tool to utilize, but even if he does find a way, Hill is great at timing kicks and finding openings with nasty cross. The Santos fight is a great example of this. Still, I am rooting for Alex, but this is not the easy fight that fans will have you believe it is.
Glover was finished! Jiri took all the fight out of him and Santos has been done for a long time. Hill isnt on the same level as Alex and see it being an easy night for Poatan
Good breakdown. I agree with the same viewpoints. Hill can throw volume in the pocket Alex has a basic kick boxing defense stance. He keeps his arms extended and relies on it heavily and doesn't move his head as much... I believe a basic 1, 2 can breach Alex's defense, maybe rock him at some point. Alex needs to stay careful and should expect this... aside from Alex's left hook, Jamal needs to just be cautious of the leg kicks. If Glover can take Jamal punches I'm pretty sure Alex can too. But idk Alex seems a lil sus and chinny at times when he gets hit
@@micahbodha6129 hill finished glover witth the damage not jiri which was back and forth
@@micahbodha6129 there a reason glover retired after he fought hill and not jiri
Bruce Lee said that, best style is no style.
AND SO DID YOU 😂
I think that Prochaska is towing the UFC company line a bit here, with some of his comments.
Procházka
Towing the UFC line? Hardly. Strickland shits all over the UFC brand on every podcast he does and is still in the company.
he just has a big thing about not showing ego/pride as apart of his journey as a person and martial artist
how?
Jamal the grappler coming soon
Jamal is clear winner I think , let's see .

Groovy hoodie, Jiri. Duty free, eh? It's a discourtesy at the very least, to park a non entity in an non entity fight, ahead of a WC, in an important fight - it matters who wins this fight for the division. But the wrestling fans. If they haven't discovered UFC by now, will they ever? First head kick, they'll be choking on their BBQ, finding they have no patience with this foreign nonsense. It's these fighters that have people persisting with UFC, but the UFC don't get that. They think manufactured stars and endless rigging gets it done. It doesn't. It's the fighters people really like that keeps you hanging around. I think that's true, that Jiri doesn't have a style. I'm a striker. I'm a grappler. He doesn't do that. Whilst predictability is death, having styles to fall back on to free up thinking/assessment energy, is no bad thing and Jiri still has mannerisms and methods he resorts to, which can be studied. His willingness to keep coming forward... well, it can be used against him. But that then gets us to that ridiculous early stoppage. Not a single strike thrown on the ground, they are in that position because Jiri has wrapped his arms around Alex and deliberately brought him down with him. Quick, end it, Alex is now vulnerable and looking like a fish out of water, Jiri has regrouped and ready to dirty it up. Outrageous thing to have witnessed. It always sucks when the dynamic fighter, the one taking risks and making the plays, loses. Alex Pereira is different as a LHW. He is more conservative, timid, uses a lot less of his skill set. Is it self preservation getting to the belt? Will he change in his first title defence? Or, the calbre of the LHW opponents is just lightyears ahead of MW? I love the guys who love what they do. It's a profession, they are professional athletes, they study and hone their skillset. I hate the endless chatter about money. They can STFU about it. Jiri never talks about money. One of the reasons I like him.
What a chad

Biased opinion of AP
Bo Nickal is always fighting cans
Does Jiri have head damage?
Nah he probably just can’t speak English well since hes from the Czech Republic’s
He is very well spoken but unfortunatly so much gets lost in translation
looks more like a bitten lip
@@doposudI understand that but i could of swore he spoke more fluently in english, now he seems to slur his words and he has very delayed responses.
@@JT76912 his english alway like that, the stream between them got delayed

Jiri should have called out the Bo Nickal bullshit. Acting this does nothing other than allowing BS like this to thrive. It is not cool to "NOT CARE" at all, this is why abusive people all around the world thrive, because of people like this, just allowing it to happen and not calling it out.
Jiri is focused on his fight and doesn't need the extra drama. Also he's fighting Rakic, one of the most boring point fighters in light heavyweight so that's probably why he's not in the main.
Damn you sound like 1 of dem guyz who took an “L” to ALEX & now iz just hating in other wordz stop crying🤣💦😂😹😭😿
so if he says anything against alex he's hating? Just calm the fuck down and stop riding alex so hard
