something’s got to give as we decide the UFC light heavyweight [Applause] championship praska the Challenger in red to sherah in the black and gold be fitting a champion sorry proska has the Southpaw stance so has to attack single if rasa goes conventional Glover will attack the high crotch heavy kick just landed for Glover one thing is evident when they Square it up yui looked gigantic huge now you see I talked about this a lot he very unusual you see the hands moving around a lot the chin is up in the air there’s not much of a guard he’s the embodiment almost of a traditional martial artist oh nice shot body head with the left hook but as we’ve seen and I say this with respect we have seen flws in traditional martial arts Styles that’s why it became a mixture because no want to was perfect and of course hold on this is big big single there by gets him down so toare with a take down about it in with relative ease got to that single leg Beautiful Finish there by glob toer elevated the leg kick the opposite leg that Yuri was hopping up and down on now what does Yuri have off his back it’s going to be interesting to see right now close guard just considering what his next move going to be seeing what Glover’s going to offer and give him will give him nothing brother just beat him up time I’m sure he’ll give him an elbow in the face lover will take his time and he will just beat him up Yuri’s going to have to get away from him he will not make a mistake that allow for him to escape Yuri needs to W walk but not give up his back and that was the first thing he said in our fighter meeting I cannot allow this man to operate off my back correct and is such a often and regular mistake that people make in the urgency to get back to the feet they give up their back and you cannot do that against a man like toar Y is controlling the hand yes so he’s giving him a chance nope now Glover’s back on top he’s looking for Aur potentially yeah but he’s going to now he’s out of the car right so now Glover’s out of the Guard to he’s even better he’s in an even better position he’s going to kick off the fence he needs to explode now Yu’s got to explode back into it north south now under a minute under two and a half to go round one not at all the start that praska was looking for p off the G you hear glovis Corner tell him to pull him away from the cage because there will be a big explosion for patka there it is that’s that explosion I pops this Pro to his feet two minutes to go in the round and you see the smile from here as if to say hey look at that you had me in your best spot and I got back up now he’s alive and he’s full of confidence some blood coming out of the nose or so it appears from Glo toare already right hand from toar oh oh Yuri roll with that good shot by glob but Yu did a good job of rolling with the punch there’s the signal again and look at that complet with these straight into this wow oh he’s going to he better not turn this gets through for glovera and again try to pick his PO here 1 minute 15 seconds in a terrible position head up against the fence full from GL to and this is where GL wants to be he has worked the entire training camp to establish this position 27- one ground strike and the physicality of tashera at 42 a sight to behold and that’s the thing right that’s the thing about tashera when he’s beating you up like that when he’s on top you’re getting more and more tired he’s going to fall off the top no soar may be working on a kamora potentially he’s using the legs to make sure that he doesn’t lose position roll off and give Yuri pahas the advantage but it’s touch and go here potentially working on an onar as you say Joe Jas out all things considered he’s defended pretty well didn’t want to give up the back got mounted but got out and a big ground strike now from the Challenger mat to Shar trying to control posture late in the round these are massive bombs these are n house shouts what what a round what a St however youi have success at the end two unheralded head coaches for nelli Fel senior with Glover and Martin kavanov the head coach of Yuri praza Yuri did a good job job of defending himself on the ground he did not allowing Glover to get too much damage done [Applause] on stay thereover over there stop stop stop stop looking me you okay you can see yeah okay time in let’s go I toight you’re annoying me I am trying to annihilate my opponent get out of my way there’s a nice job he’s so long he’s fight long he but he doesn’t utilize that to the best of his ability he’s looking to explode with a flying knee he lowering his base to explode nice head movement there by praza Glover throws the right hand to the body and then the left hook he does it a lot the left Hook’s his best shot oh he was looking good yeah Yuri looks fresh he’s faster he’s much faster than glob he’s faster he’s younger of course and he’s just he really is just like a samurai warrior strikes don’t come from a normal noral place right he doesn’t play the game he doesn’t follow the rules like a boxing coach would say oh this guy leaves so many openings but you can still be affected because obviously there’s kicks there’s knees there’s elbow the rules necessarily apply if you’re good enough fast enough and have the reflexes to get away with it praska the last two wins have ended by round two KN nice jab there up here to partially St toer I think he might have Hur G with the knee yes that hurt him here so G is wrestling for his life oh big hammer Fist from Pro [Applause] haska looking for alond Jo made a mistake I mean yui is just brining with confidence right now he’s got to be careful though Glover’s known to throw that left hook whenever he’s under attack almost CAU Miss though he’s Landing everything and they’re powerful wait for the knee off it’s a Shar able to land a right hand of his own under two and a half to go in the round the body language of corner over car two much [Applause] stom oh can he get it though can he get it hos is doing a good job of turning and kicking recognizing there’s nothing for Glover to hold on to on the bottom half y just had a big output though he’s taking some deep breaths right now Glover has to just try to survive this round yes praska mixing in some nice elbows now oh punches and punches I mean Clover has a chin you’ve seen Yu just F people with these kind of shots oh look at this I told you that love hook comes from nowhere from toer you cannot get over excited you can’t get over zealous under 90 seconds to go in the round good opportunity here for the champ I’m telling you there heavy shots there was two or three in a row there is he under the chin no no he isn’t not yet a wild second round praska forced to defend here big hand Big Shots these are bigger shots landed by T sheriff and the output that Yuri put out in this round he’s going to start to get a little tired and this is so important right now for Clover because it wasn’t looking good am M to go he took a lot of shots the body language the eyes he looked hurt now he’s going to take a little you know a little breath here compose himself gather his thoughts so to speak and just be like woo it feels good to have this beast on the floor a minute yeah for sure for sure once you gain that control you’ve been searching for nothing feel better you can yep you can take a breath you can calm down and you can also realize that you’re investing you’re investing in wearing this kid out making him tired relying on the fact that he isn’t used to grappling as much as you are right and he’s going to for B position he’s defending well G’s going a high guard for to get him through now oh big elbow right through and he cut him bad oh big another one for the measure wow dra close to round two for the champ go over smiling because this is where he has generally pulled away from these guys let’s see how Yuri responds to this yeah I don’t know if I’ll be smiling in this situation no way come on I got to go and do this again cuz for Yu it’s like stay up right for G it’s like how can I get this take down as easy as possible he doesn’t want to give Max effort to get these takedowns because they get harder and harder he want J to make a mistakes just kind of knock him down but the longer he waits for the perfect opportunity the more chance he’s got of getting clipped nicely defended by Yuri andas wise to welcome to back to his feet very smart there I don’t Yuri big success with the ground and park when he got top position earlier potentially trying to avoid those transitions on the ground or even just using muscles right this guy’s a striker this guy doesn’t want to be grappling for 25 minutes tar moving his head well avoided most of those offerings there from prohaska ah clean so much movement stance switches from praska gives you so many different things to look at and think about Yuri is a very difficult guy to prepare for just because the dangers come from everywhere but now they’re just dripping in sweat the Tak Downs aren going to be as easy for y crumble oh pretty good reaction by tar to try to get the take down unable to do so and there it is there the sweat that’s causing real issues now for G gl’s all blooded up two gl’s all beaten bloody to Shar in trouble here or so it would appear certainly looks like and there’s a knee now from Yuri that’s the one the tree top that’s what he needs isolates the leg therefore the sweat doesn’t play a factor is just a good oldfashioned trip with the other leg well Yu’s trying to roll away from him and that’s where he’s finding himself in trouble every time he kicks away Glover lets the leg go and just follows him Yu’s turning his hips though Yuri’s doing a good job here trying to get back to his knees he’s doing a great job he’s almost there he’s actually on his knees and now he’s about to be up nicely done by [Applause] praza beautiful job by Yuri there pushing the position staying and ring the underhook Yuri proska is a very well-rounded martial artist he understands defense when he gets taken down very well he got CL by though roasa hands down body there massive body shot but GLA takes it [Music] [Applause] I mean come on the creativity oh St from all angles couple good body shots oh knee to the body that forces to share it to the canvas I’m not sure how many more shots he can take I don’t think he can he’s going to be looking to get out of this round kind of feel like a long two minutes half [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] guard big third round for Yuri prohaska toar unofficially now 3 for2 on his taked down attempts and that blood becoming a real Factor we thought the proska cut would be the issue but it’s becoming the cut of Glover to sherff if you’re Yu you’re letting him up blow is not doing a good job with the Finish strikes on the feet he seems tired Dar CH he needs to jump off to the other side I’m tryangle that by Yuri oh my goodness nope look at that wow playing with fire a little bit correct and now toer back inside the crows C of furri proos with 4 seconds to go on the round but you got to respect Yuri for even going for that going up against the guy with the Jiu-Jitsu credentials and trying to submit him even though it’s potentially a sacrifice move oh especially when he doesn’t need to it feels like he can finish this fight from the feet slicing elbow lands for tashera bar attempt thought about it I mean this fight is just incredible it’s everything I mean this is [Applause] just new territory for Yuri prohaska well gler just enjoyed a tremendous amount of damage and to hear him in the corner just saying to I’m going to beat him I’m going to beat him I’m going to beat crazy have you ever I mean how can you not be inspired by this m the determination so determined to be the champion and honestly I think he oh nice cor his Corner set right to the body left hook High head kick for tashera not a ton on it when it got to the Target short left to the body for praza you looking a little more labored in his movements now that was a good kick lot of mouth breathing going on for prohaska and toera oh come on I mean the impact you can hear it yeah you can hear it we got like soundproof in headphones o right hand from tasher allows him to get inside got his hands locked yep he’s going to go for a r that’s where gille feels that’s where the confidence came from knowing that he possibly won round one and he knows that he can go get Tak Downs late here with both arms what he’s trying to do is like shook him off of them he’s got to get but he’s got to get the left arm underneath left arm stuck he’s got to get him both around the body at the sheriff bridge and throw Glover forward over his head especially with the [Applause] qu he’s abandoning that position now Yi I’m talking about solid sa control for Glover Yuri has to be very careful not to accept this position and definitely don’t let Glover move to the next position which is the Mount if he let them Mount him again it’s going to be a problem and if you’re G to Sher you’re going to do everything you can to just make sure Beast does not get back to his feet haska is mounted now two and a half minut AR triang arm triangle if Glover can get his body off to the side it’s not there yet it’s not there the arm’s going to be over the other side when you’re as tired as you is yeah correct sus that becomes a major factor that’s why it’s not stepping off to the side yet because it the position isn’t secure he want he steps up to the side and he doesn’t get the position he’ll lose he doesn’t get the submission he’ll lose it very smart decision making by Glover there he was close to securing the submission attempt but it wasn’t there praska has only been submitted once in his career if memory serves it was about 10 years ago and he didn’t tap went out now it is there it is no no move he took it down because it’s tight yeah but he he might watch his hands watch his hands oh it’s tight he’s squirming and he is squeezing oh yeah should take mount back and tell you the position’s off oh now now that’s the problem oh you’re incredible defensive work from Pro haska 90 seconds to go round four one slippy shots down there not them [Applause] ones and this is it right round two looked like this Braska dominated Clover controlled the very end of the round round four clover dominates ni Yuri is now in position deep half go toer tried to burst unable to do so oh s perfectly takes the back I mean come on the skill of this man beautiful peek out there by GL theer and a nice shot by praza to prevent the body lock he kept that leg trying to get that second hook in here’s aware of it he’s got to be careful cuz while he’s using one hand to fight the foot off he can create OPP chity for the next good defensive battling man right oh very good really good he’s done his homework under 30 seconds to go now and Cheryl working off of his back again this fight has had it all this has been a great fight it’s been an amazing fight keep waning seconds round four big right hand on the ground for [Music] proa Fifth and Final Round Standing Ovation in Singapore 5 minutes or less to decide the Undisputed UFC light heavyweight championship I mean I love this fight it’s been fantastic we we have seen everything beautiful grappling by Glover fantastic striking by Yuri Yuri with some really good grappling and take down Defence several occasions both men have nearly been finished yeah it’s it’s been [Music] tremendous that’s nice and this is just your massive right from toara trying to survive oh big mistake why would you do that he he had him hurt bad his opponent out on his feet almost just the instincts kick in hours of training thousands of hours where you lock in the gear team and finish the fight in this situation a terrible move especially when you’re sweaty very close fight dude’s hurt that right hand look he was looking for that right hand all night and he could not touch him because Yuri was too fast now that Yuri’s tired he’s able to touch him with his hands toer has got to find their way back to his feet he does because I and and now he does and perhaps in some part welcome there by praza y’s jab is [Applause] true cobwebs mayor may not have been cleared Clover is finding the mark though with frequency yes I’m telling you it’s because for hos tired now he’s not moving as well dude he was cl was catching win Hook clev was catching all win early but now he’s touching it trying to take it down and get him again guys switch to a single leg here he wants to finish his take down who would have thought that in the fifth round Global terer is now winning the Striking between him and Yu for unbelievable laughing away at his face just to do something and DC sing leg to Sher Corner call for him to switch to the single globis [Applause] T this is crazy it really is it’s just an epic bottle of Wheels right now there’s a hard job and there’s a big righty hand right on the ear Braska shakes it off as if to say didn’t do too much D the chin on y br is ridiculous toer has folded people and put them to sleep with his [Applause] shots trying to hit the switch [Applause] leg it is crazy to watch at this age the finished Championship with this much and he’s got the M he’s in the in the championship world is where he went and did his thing he’s got two minutes though to go to work with for out and every time we’ve seen that he does do damage from here but Yuri has made it to the end of the round but 2 minutes is a long one one minute forward is a long time and praza of course with all the heart to go with the skill set seconds to go he’s going to kick off the fence he’s trying to walk Round walk over well we’ve had a lot of great live events in 2022 none better and UFC 275 hoska working partially off the back [Applause] here wisely rolls looking for a leg now passes to S control does yui I mean Europe has to prove to the world there tonight that he is not only a striker he can grapple he can hold his own on the ground with the best Roba has made some technical mistakes tonight though correct there’s been some opportuni some control it’s he’s got it the ne he he he got the hand down he got the hand he got the hand no but he still got it again got it has done it near we at the gun there is a new heavyweight champion the Czech Republic has got one G prusa ladies and gentlemen referee Mark Gard has called a stop to this contest at 4
