He better go suck in that energy and prepare to fight this guy or it’s just going to be the same thing. I think Alex Pereira gets the dub again” he mentioned.
Perry identified Prochazka had a variety of materials to assist him put together for the champion for the reason that latter had been placing out coaching movies from his camp recurrently, the place he may very well be seen doing “the same thing over and over again.” These clips of him coaching, the previous UFC star felt, gave away what ‘Poatan’ was seeking to do in opposition to ‘BJP’ on their UFC 303 conflict, which the latter ought to use to formulate his personal plan.
“The guy has been showing us what he’s doing, he’s been putting videos of sparring. Every freaking week he’s sparring and you’re seeing he does the same thing over and over and over again. If Jiri ain’t, you know, if you ain’t watching that, like ‘wow I could do something about this,’ you know, it ain’t about the spells or the mantras bro. Say your prayers walk out there and fight like a man,” he added.
