Last to hold the light heavyweight belt (up to 93kg), the Czech Jiri Prochazka, will probably be Jamal Hill's first challenger. After the North American gave a beating to Glover Teixeira and become the new champion of the division, 'Denisa' went to his Instagram to congratulate the new 'king', but warned that he is coming to resume his reign in the category.

“Congratulations… I’m coming. I'm coming!” said Prochazka.

After defeating Glover Teixeira in June 2022 and win the light heavyweight belt, Prochazka would rematch the Brazilian in UFC 282, last December. However, with just under a month to go before the fight, the Czech suffered a serious shoulder injury that forced him to leave the card. Aiming not to stop the category, 'Denisa' also decided to drop the belt and focus solely on his recovery.
