When Jiri Prochazka made his way to the UFC, he was advertised as non-stop action. The Czech native has lived up to that reputation and then some. It was a brutal slugfest for the nearly two rounds of Prochazka’s contest with Dominick Reyes tonight at UFC Vegas 25, each landing heavy leather on the other for almost the entirety of the bout. Prochazka had the upper hand for the majority of the contest, hurting Reyes in the opening round, but proving unable to finish him. When the second round picked up, it was more of the same only for Reyes to put Prochazka on an uneven base and jumping for a guillotine. Prochazka survived, took the fight to the feet, and found a spinning back elbow that put Reyes out cold.

He calls it the Giga Kick, and after what Giga Chikadze did on Saturday night, who s going to argue over ownership of a devastating technique?
Chikadze won his eighth straight fight and put on his most impressive UFC performance, knocking out Cub Swanson with a kick to the liver that collapsed the veteran just 1:03 into their co-main event of UFC Fight Night in Las Vegas.
Damn! Liver kick!! Those never feel good! Georgia on fire tonight! #UFCVegas25 Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) May 2, 2021
