One hitter quitter: Jiri Prochazka bounces C.B. Dolloway off the canvas at Rizin FF 20

Jiri Prochazka made quick work of C.B. Dolloway at Rizin FF 20.

It didn’t take long for the Rizin FF light heavyweight champ Prochazka (26-3, 11-1 Rizin) to retain his title, as he scored a first-round knockout over UFC veteran C.B. Dolloway at the Saitama Super Arena on New Year’s Eve.

Prochazka marched down Dolloway (17-10, 0-1 Rizin), eating his leg kicks and pressing him towards the ropes. Shortly after, he threw a thunderous left hook, bouncing Dolloway’s body off the canvas.

No follow up shots were needed as the big Czech claimed his eighth straight knockout victory to retain his title in style.

It was Prochazka’s 10th win in a row, with nine of those coming by the way of stoppage. For Dolloway, who was sporting wrestling boots for the bout, his Rizin debut did not go to plan, and has now suffered two losses in a row.
