Media preparation for the event was accompanied by an unexpected incident backstage at the press conference. American heavyweight Josh Hokit, who tries to draw attention to himself through provocative behavior, went after the Czech fighter. During the incident, Hokit shouted at Procházka and behaved aggressively, causing a stir among the press present. idnes.cz ↗

Procházka feels motivated and prepared. His training preparation has been intense, including a camp in Mexico, which his coach described as bordering on overtraining. The Czech fighter himself has previously hinted that he might attempt a move up to heavyweight in the future. sport.sk ↗

His opponent Ulberg believes there are many paths to victory. However, former UFC fighter Matt Brown expects that Procházka has a weakness in certain aspects of his fighting style. Leading Czech coach André Reinders expects a heart-stopping duel, in which Procházka will need to be especially careful. sport.cz - hokej ↗
