High-ranking visitor for Aleksandar Rakic! The Viennese MMA fighter was watched by a certain Mike Tyson during his fight against Jiri Prochazka. Afterwards there was a short chat.

Aleks looks slightly scarred by his defeat against the Czech Prochazka, but it's definitely enough for a photo with "Iron Mike". Rakic was able to enjoy the highest level of celebrity in the audience at his comeback fight at the "UFC 300" in LA at the weekend. As an avowed MMA fan, "Iron Mike" Tyson was invited by the organizer as a guest of honour. The fight did not go according to plan for Rakic with his defeat in round two, but the pain was eased by a personal "meet and greet" with Tyson. A few words were also exchanged. And of course a pic was taken for Insta.

Defeat on the comeback
Rakic made his comeback in the UFC on Saturday after a two-year break due to injury. He got off to a good start against the Czech Prochazka, but then suffered defeat in the second round. Possibly also due to an infection and treatment with antibiotics.

However, the Viennese is already eager to attack again. He is the more complete fighter, he explained in an analysis video. And ready for a return to the Octagon as soon as possible.
