Since he KO’d Reyes I have been hoping and somewhat expecting Glover to get a minor “injury” so Jiri vs Jan happens first. Then Glover can get his shot at the end of the year.
I think most fans would prefer this scenario, no disrespect to Glover
Jiri Bless.
I wouldn't complain about this scenario. But Jiri's next fight should be against the Jan/Glover winner.
Before his UFC run, I mentioned how I think Jiri's poor man's Wilder. He has...god given power in his right hand. Back then, it probably didn't sound like a good comparison, but now it probabl don't sound that bad, with Jiri on the upswing, and Wilder getting cucked by Fury
Jiri a poor man's Wilder?? Dude has WAY more in his arsenal that one punch.
This, should they get a kit even if they have not fought? its not like this guy is some semi-retired guy who hasnt stepped on the cage in years, first thing i noticed was the Reebok shorts.You gotta wear Venum now Jiri.

His offence is literally his right hand. He did finish Reyes with that elbow, good for him, but throughout his Rizin career upto fight with Reyes, his offense is just like Wilders.
You think Wilder don't know how to throw other punches? He does. But his offense is his god given power in his right hand. Just like for Jiri.
But I never said it was his only offense either, nor that he doesn't have more in his arsenal. But that's his main weapon, just like Wilder's
I think Jiri is nothing like an MMA poor man's version of Wilder.
A better analogy would be Black Beast. That's your MMA poor man's version of Wilder.
My mistake, i sort of glimpsed at the gifs the first time, and you're right he is wearing Venum, i guess himself and i think the same thing, they are identical lol, they even look like PFL's too.He has a Venum kit. Fought Dominick Reyes in them Venum shorts.
There's a big difference between being unorthodox on purpose and just being unorthodox due to not implementing technique well. Sure Jiri is raw and powerful, but all the different angles, strike selection and very unorthodox off timing he has, there's no way he hasn't thought about that, it's some real crafty stuff in there that's very hard to predict. It is a bad comparison, a more proper comparison would be Ngannou(at least before his last fight).Before his UFC run, I mentioned how I think Jiri's poor man's Wilder.
