"I blew out my knee, but I never counted myself out. I knew all I needed was that one shot, and I ended up getting it. So I knew that Jiri was hesitant to come forward. And as soon as I landed my left hand, he's going. It's about getting those moments."
"I felt sorry [for] him, and this is one of the biggest lessons in my life. That fight was won, I had it, it was in my hands. I saw his injury, and I will be back. Life is about that, learn and be better."
Carlos Ulberg claimed the vacant UFC light heavyweight title by knocking out Jiri Prochazka in the first round at UFC 327. The fight took place in Miami, with President Donald Trump in attendance. Ulberg, who suffered a knee injury during the match, landed a decisive left hook at 3:45 of the first round. This victory marked Ulberg's tenth consecutive win, while Prochazka's record in UFC title fights fell to 1-3 since June 2022. Prochazka expressed regret over the loss but emphasized the importance of learning from the experience.
