Jiri Prochazka won't be a backup for Alex Pereira vs. Magomed Ankalaev fight at UFC 313: "I don’t like to be a backup"

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka returned to winning ways against Jamahal Hill at UFC 311. The No. 2-ranked contender asserted he wanted a third chance against the champion Alex Pereira next. However, the Brazilian champion's next assignment is against No. 1 contender Magomed Ankalaev, scheduled for March 8.

Clearing his stance on being the backup fighter for the UFC 313 main event, Prochazka said in his post-fight press conference:

"No, I don’t like to be a backup. Because it’s every time, weird, you can fight or not, but you are still prepared. No, I want to make a good preparation, and then to face, like I said, Alex Pereira a third time.”
