Dominick Reyes Focused on Rematch with Jiri Prochazka, Even at the White house
Dominick Reyes is looking past past controversies (like his fight with Jon Jones, which even Dana White thought was wrongly judged) adn focusing on a specific future opponent: Jiri prochazka. He’s even dreaming of a rematch with Prochazka at a unique venue – the White House in 2026.
Reyes believes the upcoming UFC 320 in Las Vegas will substantially impact the light heavyweight division, and hopes it will pave the way for prochazka to reclaim the title. He wants to then challenge Prochazka for the 205-pound gold.
Despite suffering a devastating knockout loss to Prochazka via spinning elbow in May 2021, reyes feels this rematch is the most important fight for him. He holds no ill will towards the former champion, stating they’ve even socialized together.
while he’d fight other contenders like Alex Pereira, Magomed Ankalaev, and khalil Rountree, he doesn’t have the same desire for those matchups. he specifically wants to revisit the fight with Prochazka, believing it would be another exciting contest.
Reyes will be closely watching UFC 320 this weekend, hoping the results will bring him closer to his goal of a rematch with Jiri Prochazka.
