Jiri Appreciation - 97% Finish Rate and No Weight Cut

[Fedorgasm]

I just saw your sig, is there another Yossarian on sherdog??

Looks like his username is no longer active, but yeah, there used to be a guy here named prime yossarian and his comment made me laugh so I used it as my sig.

Not even Jamahal Hill could be pissy with him so they ended up sharing a drink after the fight from what I heard.

More like Jiri had "dad-son" conversation and then invited Hill for drink after he promised some stuff...

Jiri is a cool dude and an entertaining fighter, there is no denying that.

i like how jiri is big as fuck, muscled up, maintains KO power, has 5 round cardio, fast feet and reaction time, but everyone is talking how he could be a MW. weird af

So there are many who say he is not a good fighter because "no hands up" and he also does weird shit.
Yeah that is true --- after all, he did get knocked out twice by Alex Pereira.

But what people don't often mention is that he has a ridiculous 97% finish rate
AND doesn't weight cut (208 lbs on fight night).

Those are extremely unheard of in MMA.

In other words, you can conclude this about his state of mind:
1. "I will finish my opponent no matter what. Kill or be killed. My fate will not be decided by judges"
2. "I will fight my opponent no matter what they or I weigh. No excuses"

I wasn't aware of these two traits before UFC 311, but now knowing this, it is very impressive.

This Czech bushido weirdo is the true essence of MMA.
No bullshit, let's fight to the death. Right here, right now.

If he somehow beats Poatan... then drops down to MW (where he should be fighting) and snots DDP, I'd grant him goat status... or at least add him to my profile signature haha

It's impossible to not root for him
