Prochazka praised Blachowicz's legendary Polish power. He noted that Blachowicz's punches are very precise and that the reigning champion certainly hits very hard:

"I think that, from the last fight of Blachowicz I can say just that, he showed impressive fight. He controlled with Reyes, he controlled all the time. All the time he controlled the fight, it was in his hand and that was amazing. That was amazing and he is so dangerous, in his focus and in his techniques because his punches are very precise and it is hard, very tough. So, I think, Jan Blachowicz will again keep this fight with Teixeira in his hand. It will be ruled by him and I think that Teixeira can surprise with some surprise punches, with something like that," Prochazka said.

In his breakdown of the UFC 266 light heavyweight title fight, Jiri Prochazka mentioned that he expects Blachowicz to control his upcoming title fight against Glover Teixeira. But the Brazilian is certainly more than capable of catching Blachowicz with a surprising punch.
