UFC light-heavyweight Paul Craig is confident he can win world honours after watching Jiri Prochazka's win over Glover Teixeira.
Prochazka submitted Teixeira in the final moments of their 205lb title fight at UFC 275 last month. It was a back-and-forth fight with 42-year-old Teixeira coming close to finishing Prochazka on several occasions. Craig, who fights Volkan Oezdemir this Saturday at UFC London, believes he has the ability to become light-heavyweight champion after watching Prochazka's win.
"Watching his fight against Glover, a man at 42, there's definitely scope," Craig said. "I'm watching that [fight] I was like 'I would have finished that' and 'I would have done that'. Watching fights lures you into this false sense of security but it does give me confidence in my ability.
