Former UFC fighter and now renowned analyst Chael Sonnen reviewed the light heavyweight championship bout between Jiří Procházka and Glover Teixeira.
It's the Procházka vs. Glover fight. I thought about how great that fight was...How many times did it seem like it was about to be stopped? And the fact that Glover was 30 seconds away from defending the world title... I think Procházka should have gotten more recognition. I saw skill and courage.
