Jiri Prochazka Denies UFC 332 Headliner Rumors

Jiri Prochazka has issued a statement to quash speculation regarding his involvement in headlining UFC 332. The fighter confirmed via Instagram that no fight agreement has been finalized for the event, which is slated for October 3rd.

Prochazka shared training footage alongside his clarification, stating, "Fight is not confirmed yet, still working on that." He also expressed his commitment to a comprehensive and thorough preparation process.

The UFC 332 event, scheduled to take place in Salt Lake City, currently lists its main event as TBD vs. TBD on its official website. This leaves the promotion with a significant headline slot to fill just six weeks before the event.

Rumors had suggested a potential interim light heavyweight title bout between Prochazka and Paulo Costa. However, the context of this potential matchup is complicated by current champion Carlos Ulberg's recovery from injury and Costa's stated desire to explore free agency after his current contract.
