""There's no real preparing for a particular fighter like Jiri. He's very unpredictable. We do have some looks that can give us what we need for this particular fight.""
""We've been preparing for this fight for years now. We've seen it happen. We've seen that Jiri could be a possible opponent, whether it be for the title or not.""
""There was always the word around town, right, with Pereira possibly moving up. And that's been the word for a while now.""
Carlos Ulberg is set to fight Jiri Prochazka for the vacant light heavyweight title at UFC 327. Ulberg acknowledges the unpredictability of Prochazka, making game planning challenging. Despite the short notice, Ulberg feels prepared, having anticipated Prochazka as a potential opponent for years. He has won nine consecutive fights since his debut loss in March 2021. The opportunity arose after Alex Pereira vacated the title to pursue heavyweight competition, prompting Ulberg to prepare for various potential challengers in the title picture.
