"Does he even have that much p*ss" – Fans hilariously react to Jiri Prochazka being tested a whopping 24 times in the past month
UFC light heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka finds himself in an unenviable position. He is the most tested UFC fighter by the United States Anti-Doping Agency in 2022.
According to a tweet from TSN Sports' Aaron Bronsteter, Prochazka has submitted 24 samples in the last month, a whopping 17 more than anybody else:
"Based on data from USADA's athlete test history, Jiri Prochazka has submitted 24 samples for drug testing in the past month (and 27 total in Q3 of 2022). This is a massive anomaly as the next most is 7 samples submitted. USADA confirmed to me that the number is accurate."

USADA confirmed to me that the number is accurate.
Fans reacted to the news by wondering about the Czech fighter's plight:
"Does he even have that much p*ss?"
@aaronbronsteter Does he even have that much piss?
"So almost everyday for a month? That’s nuts."
@aaronbronsteter So almost everyday for a month? That’s nuts.
Many other fans used humor to point out that 'The Czech Samurai' may have gotten used to it:
"Do you think he's so used to it now that he can't actually urinate unless it's into a plastic jar?"
@aaronbronsteter Do you think he's so used to it now that he can't actually urinate unless it's into a plastic jar?
"They probably just enjoy his company at that point"
@aaronbronsteter They probably just enjoy his company at that point
Others made reference to the story of Prochazka locking himself away for three days:
"No wonder this guy has to lock himself in a cage for 3 days, USADA’s testing him if he’s anywhere else"
@aaronbronsteter no wonder this guy has to lock himself in a cage for 3 days, USADA’s testing him if he’s anywhere else
@aaronbronsteter The man kicks trees, climbs mountains jacketless, and locks himself in dark rooms.
They finna make it an even 30 just in case
@aaronbronsteter So jiri locked himself in a room for 3 days to get away from usada
@aaronbronsteter @Shaqkeem1 looks like there wasn’t only darkness in that room
@DrMILFhunter978 @aaronbronsteter Most likely found something suspicious in a previous test
@aaronbronsteter He must have given a dubious sample to have received such scrutiny.
While replying to a fan's question, Bronsteter confirmed that there is no explanation from USADA over the excessive testing of the light heavyweight champion:
"They are not able to disclose that."
@wholesome_mma They are not able to disclose that.
Jiri Prochazka names his dream fights against Jon Jones and Francis Ngannou
Jiri Prochazka is just one fight into his reign as light heavyweight champion. However, he already has aspirations of facing the big boys in the heavyweight division down the line.
Prochazka spoke in an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda MMA's Andrew Whitelaw, where he addressed a potential move up to heavyweight. Prochazka claimed that he'd like to remain at 205lbs for the next few years:
"These next three years I feel for light heavyweight. That's my weight. Yeah, maybe later. Maybe later I will feel, 'Let's go to the heavyweight.' But now I feel light heavyweight is the best one for me. I don't need to cut a lot of weight. And still I feel strong, I feel powerful, I feel fast. So light heavyweight is the best for me right now."
'Denisa' said he feels at home in the light heavyweight division and went on to name two matchups he'd like to be a part of:
"Of course, 100% Jon Jones. Very dangerous is [Francis] Ngannou."
