Jiri Prochazka was once a party-going football hooligan but is now on the brink of becoming a UFC champion.
No.2 ranked light-heavyweight Prochazka challenges champion Glover Teixeira in the main event of UFC 275 tonight. Prochazka finds himself in unprecedented territory as he challenges for the UFC title after just two fights in the promotion.
Long before the impressive knockout wins against Dominick Reyes and Jan Blachowicz which propelled him to a title shot, or the success he achieved as a champion in Japanese-promotion Rizin, Prochazka used to throw "wild parties" after winning fights.
