Jiri Prochazka, from the Czech Republic, made his UFC debut Saturday night at Fight Island. Boy, was it a debut for the light heavyweight star against Volkan Oezdemir.
Dude legit knocked out Oezdemir at 49 seconds of the second round with a brutal combination of punches, leaving his opponent legitimately unconscious on the Octagon.
Here’s a better angle in slow motion.
What a heck of a debut. For Prochazka to do this in UFC 251 makes it all that much better. He’ll continue to be heard from here moving forward. That’s for sure.
