Former undisputed light heavyweight champion, Jiri Prochazka has revealed this week how his attendance at university has forced him to switch his focus from competition to schooling — resulting in him rejecting a title fight return this month.
Earlier this year, reports detailed how Czech Republic striker, Prochazka was offered a UFC 317 return during International Fight Week at the end of this month, in a grudge fight with newly crowned champion, Magomed Ankalaev.
Rejecting the pairing, Prochazka — who is currently studying Security and Strategic Studies at Masaryk University in his home country, revealed this week how his school work has taken over priority when it comes to his fighting career.
