The talk of the UFC light heavyweight division is undoubtedly former RIZIN champion Jiri Prochazka, who has recorded consecutive sensational knockout wins over Volkan Oezdemir and Dominick Reyes. As for who’s next? Well we don’t know that at the moment, but one contender is calling him out.
Austria’s Aleksandar Rakic (14-2) is on a two-fight winning streak, albeit in unexciting fashion over former title challengers Anthony Smith and Thiago Santos, and he has his eyes on Prochazka for his next fight, with the winner getting a title shot.
“Everybody is talking about my last two fights. They were boring, and I didn’t knock them out,” Rakic said an interview with MMA Junkie.
