Now I've gotta sort this knee out."It about getting those moments. He said he'd hunt me but you can't hunt what you can't kill."Former champion Prochazka, 33, closed his eyes in dejection after the contest, before revealing he dropped his guard after feeling "mercy" for Ulberg when he realised his knee was injured."It happened.
