As he prepares to face Carlos Ulberg for the vacant light heavyweight title, Procházka revealed an emotional side. He reflected on a twelve‑year relationship that shaped his life.

Prochazka was in a long‑term relationship with Czech lawyer Kamila Kordulikova, whom he met years before his UFC breakthrough.

Their partnership included breaks and reconciliations as his career demands grew, with Kordulikova providing personal support during his formative professional years.

Amid these developments, Prochazka opened up about his emotions and the influence of his long-term relationship.

I realized that after I broke up with her many times, and I realized that there’s a lot of work, a lot of what I want to do with her. Because I am not that man who I want to be without her.

It likely helped him find balance and personal peace outside the cage.

Beyond his disciplined mindset, Prochazka follows extreme routines that strengthen both mental and physical conditioning. He once spent three days in a dark room without food or water for endurance. His camps in mountains and forests include exposure to bullet ants and stinging nettles to enhance toughness. These practices reflect his commitment to pushing limits inside and outside the Octagon.

He said he has his mission in the Octagon, while his partner has hers outside, showing mutual focus and support.
