Prochazka came out guns blazing in the first and continued with his unorthodox style until finally knocking Reyes out. This will easily be in contention for fight of the year. Twitter was quick to share their thoughts on the crazy ending.

This dude Prochazka is like a avalanche going downhill. He just blitzes these dudes. He uses his cardio as a weapon , has a fantastic chin and great finishing instincts. I’m very excited about this dude!

Prior to the fight, Dana White had hinted that the winner would see title holder Jan Blachowicz. This went on to be discussed in the post-fight interview with Paul Felder.

While it may only be Prochazka’s second UFC fight, he previously turned down a contract a few years back with the promotion because he did not think he was ready to compete for a title. It seems as though his time has come.
