Former UFC featherweight champion Jiri Prochazka, who previously gave up the title because of a shoulder injury, has given an approximate timeline for his return to the Octagon.
Jiri Prochazka
I think I can come back in July or August, about this time frame, six to seven months. Just give me time and I'll be back as soon as possible.
Recall that Jamahal Hill, who defeated Glover Teixeira on January 22 at UFC 283, is the new light heavyweight division champion.
Prochazka had his last fight against Glover Teixeira in June 2022 at UFC 275. That fight ended with Jiri's victory by choking in the fifth round. Prochazka has 29 wins and three losses under his belt.
