Despite claiming to be a samurai, Jiri Prochazka asserts that it is not a literal title, but an embodiment of an attitude and way of life. Following the principles of bushido, including honesty, respect for rules, and embracing challenges, has helped him overcome adversities and live authentically. Prochazka’s approach, which includes visualization and connecting with his higher self, has earned him fans who admire his blend of traditional martial arts values and spirituality. However, his focus remains on his own path, guided by his connection with his chosen deity. With a 4-1 UFC record, including a recent victory over Aleksandar Rakic, Prochazka is once again a contender in the light heavyweight division.
