They both did their best. In addition, the walk had to continue from the third round with a major laceration.
When at the end of the fifth round it looked like the duel would end in points, what no one expected came. It only took a few moments.

He did not even deny the interview after a great career success. Instead of big words, he apologized to the audience for not performing better.
“I apologize for my performance, I will be better in the next match. As I said before, it doesn’t matter if it’s the first round or the last, it doesn’t matter the technique, it’s just a win, “said Procházka after the fight.
The 29-year-old wrestler did not forget his opponent, whom he paid tribute to.
McGregor cheered him up, his rival also called
Although he pulled for a shorter end according to the referees’ points, Procházka confirmed his mentality. Regardless of the course of the fight, in the last seconds he took the victory on his side.
A large crowd of UFC fans and stars also reacted to Procházka’s performance.

American Belal Muhammad joked on the social network Twitter that after Walking’s performance he must definitely read a book of five circles by Miyamoto Musashi.
It is a book that accompanied the Czech warrior on a journey through mixed martial arts.
The former king of 93 kilograms, Jan Blachowicz, did not let himself be ashamed either. Immediately after the duel, he challenged the winner:
“George, let’s go. A real battle for the King of Europe. The biggest battle in the history of our continent. “

The Pole watched the duel of Teixeira and Procházka with great tension. It’s only been a few months since Teixeiro was dethroned. Since then, he only thinks about when he gets a chance to get back to the top.
Blachowicz returned to the UFC scene for the last time with an important victory, and it is possible that he will challenge Procházka in the future.
Interestingly, the biggest UFC star Conor McGregor pointed out the duel.
The well-known Irishman wished Procházka good luck, to which he added words about how he believes that a native of Hostěradice will write in the history of the American league. That eventually became a reality.
