Match report

Alex Pereira knocked out Jiri Prochazka via TKO in round two at 0:13, retaining his light heavyweight title with a devastating striking display. Pereira landed 38 of 50 significant strikes (76% accuracy), including 21 head strikes from 32 attempts, and scored two knockdowns en route to the finish.

Prochazka managed only 7 of 25 significant strikes (28%) and never established offensive rhythm, landing just four head strikes while controlling only 1:11 of cage time. The fight showcased a pure striker versus a grappler who couldn't close distance or implement his wrestling; Pereira's precision striking and footwork kept Prochazka at range and unable to threaten a takedown.

The emphatic victory solidifies Pereira's dominance at 205 pounds and raises questions about the division's depth at the title level.
