In this episode of The Anything Combat Show with Johnny K, former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jiří Procházka opens up following his emphatic knockout victory over Khalil Rountree Jr. Jiří makes his intentions clear: he wants the title shot next—and he isn’t backing down. He reflects on the emotional moment of watching Alex Pereira reclaim the belt, the personal meaning behind a potential third fight, and his unwavering belief that he will find a way to win.

Beyond competition, this conversation dives deep into Jiří’s unique warrior philosophy. He speaks candidly about mastering the mind, embracing risk, meditation, darkness retreats, ice swimming, and using adversity as a teacher. Jiří shares how losing his father at a young age shaped his inner world, how he reframed pain into purpose, and why discipline, self-awareness, and belief are the foundations of greatness.

In this episode of The Anything Combat Show, Johnny K sits down with rising ONE Championship Muay Thai contender Nico Carrillo, fresh off a dominant victory over Luke Lessei. Nico reflects on his transition to a higher weight class — a change that has dramatically improved his health, confidence, and performance. He admits that fighting at bantamweight left him entering bouts at around 50–60% capacity, and looking back, he feels he may have waited too long to move up due to being so close to a title shot.

Nico also opens up about his loss to Nabil Anane — a defeat he doesn’t shy away from. He attributes the outcome to an extreme weight cut and poor health but refuses to make excuses and holds no grudge. He believes letting go of the past prevents bitterness and allows life to move forward. If the opportunity comes, he’d love to run it back — not out of hatred, but to rewrite the story.
