Jiri Prochazka fires back on Magomed Ankalaev: “The only person who is a fraud is he”

Jiri Prochazka really had no problem with Magomed Ankalaev, until the new champion in heavy heavy weight just shot him on him just a few hours after he had defeated Alex Pereira at the UFC 313 main event.

As a former champion and lasting candidate in the division, Prochazka was obviously invested in the result of the fight, and he actually sent Ankalaev congratulations while adding that he used “beautiful pressure” to suffocate Pereira, and even if “most people don’t like him … they won the title for the time being”.

After Prochazka then proposed to jump directly into a title shot for his next fight, Ankalaev replied by describing him a “terrible fighter” and “fraud” and said: “As many people earn more than you – you have to win some fights.”

“I like all people except him,” said Prochazka about them Ariel Helwani Show. “He is too much (especially) his last tweet about me.”

Prochazka insulted the news of Ankalaev, but he was particularly upset about the tone after not having come to the Russians too long ago and the meeting was nothing but warm.

That apparently changed after Ankalaev had become champion, and now he has definitely grabbed Prochazka wrong.

“He doesn’t know me, I don’t know him personally,” said Prochazka. “One thing I can say Ankalaev can think what he wants, but I know that the only person who is a fraud is. Because when I met him at the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas, he was there, he was very nice, he was friendly (said) “Hello to meet you, everything is fine” and at the moment he is a superstar and a big gangster.

“At the moment he plays this game and he is traded and I understand. He won the title against the worst performance (from) Alex Pereira. Only (fraudulent) person here is Magomed Ankalaev. “

As for Ankalaev’s criticism, Prochazka quickly points out that he has built up an impressive curriculum vitae since his arrival at the UFC, with his only losses in two fights against Pereira.

Outside of this Prochazka, the UFC champion became promoted in its third struggle with the promotion and collected an impressive six subsequent bonus on the way.

“(I am) the worst fighter? Every time I give my fights everything, ”said Prochazka. “Every time I end my opponent and will give everything in my fights. Not like him.

“If he often fights in the second or third round when it comes to high performance, he tries to run out of the attack a little out of the performance from the aggressive attacks. That gives me only one meaning. Only (fraudulent) person here is Magomed Ankalaev. “

It is clear that Ankalaev’s words get under the skin, but Prochazka promises that he is not as much angry as it has only added more motivation to get this fight so that he can make another shot on becoming a champion again.

Prochazka may not like Ankalaev very much, but in the end it is the title about his waist, which the 32-year-old veteran from the Czech Republic wants more than a war war over the Internet.

“I don’t care about this guy,” said Prochazka. “I just want to take a title. It doesn’t matter for him. At the moment he is the champion, but I think nobody likes it and nobody respects that he is the champion. “

As for his wish to return to Pereira, which was the immediate proposal of Prochazka after the end of UFC 313, he is also ready for it, but Ankalaev is his new priority for the time being.

“I don’t want to be in some emotions as I want Alex in every respect!” Said Prochazka. “I’m fine for me. I know I will meet Alex a third time for 100 percent in a light heavyweight, so I’m sure. But at the moment I will do everything that is necessary to catch Ankalaev. “
