Jiri Prochazka: You’ve gotten to respect the athletes within the cage<\/h2>\n

Jean Silva picked up a unanimous decision win over Arnold Allen throughout the first UFC card of 2026. <\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the featherweight contender was accused of \u2018unsportsmanlike conduct\u2019 after jumping on and off his opponent\u2019s back in the ultimate moments of their UFC 324 clash. <\/p>\n

Jiri Prochazka expressed his dislike of Jean Silva\u2019s actions during a recent conversation with Arman Tsarukyan N3on, and Adin Ross.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw anyone who jumped off one other opponent\u2019s back,\u201d the UFC 327 headliner said. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you have got the time for these silly things, fight higher. End it and be the winner. <\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t do these silly things within the cage. You’ve gotten to respect the athletes within the cage.\u201d<\/p>\n

UFC 327 takes a late hit<\/h2>\n

Jiri Prochazka will try and turn out to be a two-time light heavyweight champion at UFC 327 on April 11. <\/p>\n

The 33-year-old will face Carlos Ulberg for the 205lb title that Alex Pereira recently made vacant. <\/p>\n

A flyweight title fight between Joshua Van and Tatsuro Taira was speculated to co-headline next Saturday\u2019s card. <\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Van got injured and their championship bout was moved back to UFC 328 on May 9.<\/p>\n

Paulo Costa\u2018s fight with number six-ranked light heavyweight Azamat Murzakanov has been elevated into the co-main event slot.<\/p>\n
