Jiri Prochazka KO’s Dominick Reyes With Huge Spinning Back Elbow – UFC Vegas 25 Highlights

Czech Republic standout, Jiri ‘Denisa’ Prochazka will likely compete for UFC light heavyweight gold in his next outing — and with good reason. Headlining UFC Vegas 25, the unorthodox striker stopped former title challenger, Dominick Reyes with a vicious spinning back elbow in the second round. Bringing his reckless and unconventional style in tandem with […]

Bringing his reckless and unconventional style in tandem with him to the Octagon for the main event, Prochazka broke Reyes’ nose in the first round with massive straights and combinations at the fence, likely taking the round with a 10-9 on all three judge’s scorecards.

Despite starting well in the second after some of the adversity in the opening, Reyes was still eating some significant shots at the fence — with blood leaking from his nose, which he had broken just last September against current light heavyweight best, Jan Blachowicz.

Wobbling Prochazka and forcing a double-leg takedown attempt from the #5 ranked contender, Reyes pulled guard for a guillotine, however, Prochazka eventually slipped his head out.

Returning to the feet, Prochazka once more backed the Hesperia native back to the fence and following an elbow on the break, Prochazka spun with a devastating spinning back elbow, knocking Reyes unconscious, who fell face-first to the Octagon canvas.

Below, catch the highlights from Prochazka’s stunning knockout win over Reyes.

LowKick MMA will be bringing you UFC Vegas 25: Reyes vs. Prochazka results throughout the afternoon (Sat. 1st. April 2021) from the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Taking main events in a pivotal light heavyweight encounter, two-time title challenger, Dominick Reyes returns for the first time since September in an attempt to snap a two-fight skid, as he welcomes recent debutante, Czech Republic standout, Jiri Prochakza.

Dropping a close, highly-disputed unanimous decision loss to former two-time light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones at UFC 248 in March last year, Reyes then challenged for vacant spoils against Jan Blachowicz in the co main event of UFC 253 on ‘Fight Island’ — where he suffered a brutal second round knockout loss.

For former Rizin FF light heavyweight champion, Prochazka, the dangerous striker enters the headliner against Reyes off the back of an eye-catching one-punch knockout win over former title chaser, Volkan Oezdemir in his promotional bow at UFC 251 in July in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

In the night’s co-main event, surging Georgian kickboxer, Giga Chikadze returns as the #14 ranked featherweight contender, tackling veteran division mainstay, Cub Swanson.

Remaining undefeated in the UFC in his last outing, Chikadze took home a high-kick knockout win over Jamey Simmons in the opening round at UFC Vegas 13 in November.

For Swanson, the veteran striker is riding a two-fight winning run, which includes a unanimous decision success against Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu player, Kron Gracie, as well as a December UFC 256 knockout win over Daniel Pineda.

Dominick Reyes vs. Jiri Prochazka – UFC Vegas 25 Staff Predictions

In the UFC Vegas 25 main event, we have an intriguing light-heavyweight match-up with title implications. Jiri Prochazka hopes to continue his perfect start to life in the UFC against Dominick Reyes who is looking to snap a two-fight losing skid. Who’ll win? Let’s see what the LowKickMMA staff think. Jordan Ellis: This is a […]

Jordan Ellis: This is a great main event. A true 50-50 fight. It’s one I don’t really have a clue on but I’m going to stump for Ji?í Procházka. I was truly impressed by his UFC debut. To take shots from someone like Volkan Oezdemir before putting him to sleep is elite level stuff. On the flip side Dominick Reyes looked way off the pace in his last bout. It’s hard to see a clear route to victory for the former title challenger at UFC Vegas 25.

Prediction: Ji?í Procházka

Curtis Calhoun: Reyes gets it done by unanimous decision. It’ll be a grind against the always unpredictable Prochazka, but Reyes will survive an early onslaught and dominate on the feet for the rest of the fight. This more calm, more humble Reyes definitely scares me. I’m convinced he doesn’t want to be known as solely the guy who almost beat Jon Jones. Reyes will establish his low kicks early to establish the range against Prochazka and this will force him to back off, and give Reyes the advantage in the exchanges. Jiri is definitely a force to be reckoned with in the light heavyweight division, but I’m convinced that Reyes is starving for another shot at the belt. Should be a great fight.

Prediction: Dominick Reyes

Ty Rosson: Prochazka is one of my favorite fighters that made their UFC debut last year. He really is a one of one kind of fighter and type of person. I always enjoy people who are outside of the box and he certainly fits that. Reyes is coming off the first knockout loss of his career, which can lead some guys to become much more cautious in their striking approaches. I think Prochazka will be just too unorthodox for Reyes to figure out. Prochazka gets the win via 2nd round KO.

Prediction: Ji?í Procházka

Ross Markey: Former Rizin FF champion, Jiri Prochakza certainly impressed me with the majority of his performance in his promotional bow against Volkan Oezdemir, however, whether it was just a confidence issue or whatever it may have been, his tendency to plod into range and rely heavily on his head movement prior to his finish over the Swiss striker, can’t be expressed as flippantly against Dominick Reyes. It’s two consecutive losses for two-time title challenger, Reyes, the second of which against Jan Blachowicz was particularly damaging. Prochazka certainly has the ability to make massive waves at 205lbs, however, tonight’s pairing with Reyes is quite a sizeable hurdle to overcome. The Czech Republic native is rather unconventional in his approach to striking and especially in his movement, and if he can use that as effectively against Reyes tonight as he did with Oezdemir, he’ll eventually find his target. Jiri Prochazka via second round knockout.

Prediction: Ji?í Procházka
