Glover Teixeira's next title fight is set to come against Czech Republic's Jiri Prochazka. The UFC light heavyweight champion has a tough task in front of him.

Jiri Prochazka is considered one of the best light heavyweights in the world. The UFC champion will have his hands full against a hungry contender.

Not many fighters have beat Jiri Prochazka so it's difficult to find someone that has the key to beating him. Glover Teixeira found someone that beat him outside of the UFC, King Mo himself, Muhammad Lawal.

“I talked with Mo because (Prochazka) was a backup for the (Jan Blachowicz) fight. Mo called me, we talked a little bit about it,” Teixeira told Sherdog.com. “Maybe I’ll bring Mo to my camp, you know? It will be a good possibility, I’m good friends with Mo. Not just that, Jiri is a very awkward striker but very fast with his movements, very good technique. But also he opens up a lot, and I think that’s how King Mo got him. He comes crazy like that. He also leaves himself open for a god punch to connect.”

The two fought before Jiri Prochazka signed with the UFC. They fought in Japan under the Rizin banner. King Mo got the victory by knockout in the first round of their contest.

The UFC light heavyweight champion will be counting on him to help beat the tough contender from the Czech Republic. Glover Teixeira wants to have a long reign as champion before calling it a career.
