Jiri Prochazka

Hamzat Chimaev is moving up to light heavyweight following his loss at UFC 328. Analysis suggests the most interesting matchup would be against Jiri Prochazka due to their history and name value. The post expresses concern that Chimaev will lose two key advantages at 205 pounds—his length and physical strength—as he'll face taller and stronger opponents. There are worries about his health given past issues with weight cuts and physical breakdowns during fights. The author notes it could take years for Chimaev to fully adapt to the new weight class and questions whether the move risks damaging his aura with a second consecutive loss.
