From knocking Ozdemir out in his UFC debut, brutally knocking Reyes out, and to submit Glover in a war to win the title, all in 3 fights is crazy man. One of my fav Mixed Martial Artist to watch as of now.

Guys, Schmo is really an underrated interviewer... I don't think he went to school to learn about interviews asked interviewing people (maybe he did) but really he's really fucking good.. I can see this kid getting Ariel big... (Not as big as The Nose though.. lol) But if you listen and watch in this interview, you can tell Schmo knows there's a language barrier and so he slows down and punctuates words with body language to help Jiri understand, making more understandable answers from Jiri... I first noticed it when at first Schmo talked about drinking with GLOVER, but Jiri said he never drank with Jan... Anyway, great job again Schmo... You're gonna get there kid, just stay true to you and don't let no one make you change a GOD DAMN thing, you interviews are excellent, not the repeated bullshit spewing main stream MMA channels give us.
Schmo... thanks for the lack of lies and clickbait in your descriptions. Truly appreciate your reporting and the honesty that you exude. Keep up the good work, Shmo.

His so humble wow. A real champion
This guy is amazing. Great interview. I see Jiri English is improved a lot.
To me, Glover deserves the shot before Jan. The way Jan won his last fight, to me, wasn't enough to get another shot. He needs one more win, I think. I'd even be all for Glover vs. Jan again. Both those guys wanted the fight before Jiri took the belt.

I think Jan is the most stylistically perfect to match up jiri's striking game look what he did to reyes to adesanya to rakic. Jan also a well rounded fighter he can wrestle but also can outstrike you in the feet and also possessed a knockout power well I don't think Jiri will fight him in a boring way Jiri will no doubt push the fight to get that knockout victory but I see Jan going to be a defensive fighter that always looking for a counter
