BREAKING!!!! DEVASTATING HAIR NEWS!!!!
UFC light heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka has chopped off his AWESOME hair in favor of a …. buzz cut.
It’s hard to describe the hairstyle pre-cut … but it was long, high, and pretty damn cool. Sometimes he wore it in a bun.
Why’d he do it?! Jiri told Ariel Helwani it was about a new beginning.
“I cut my hair because I needed to end one chapter of my life. So now I can start with new energy, new wave. Honestly.”
Of course, Jiri just beat then-LHW champ Glover Teixeira at UFC 275 … forcing the 42-year-old future Hall of Famer to tap with less than 30 seconds left in the fight.
Prochazka was losing the fight … but none of that mattered after the rear-naked choke.
Asked if he’d grow back the luscious locks, Jiri was indecisive.
“We will see.”
