"Carlos Ulberg flatlined Jiri Prochazka with a check hook and follow up ground n' pound to capture the vacant UFC light heavyweight title on Saturday night in Miami."
"Jiri practically fumbled at the one-yard line, as Carlos suffered a catastrophic knee injury just moments earlier, unable to put weight on his leg."
"Best matchup for Jiri would be to give him the winner of the Jan Blachowicz vs. Bogdan Guskov fight, scheduled for UFC 328 in May."
"Both fighters are obviously at completely different spots in their respective careers, but either could make sense and offer a fresh standup matchup with Prochazka."
UFC 327 featured an exciting card with 12 bouts, including a main event for the vacant light heavyweight title. Carlos Ulberg defeated Jiri Prochazka with a check hook and ground n' pound. Prochazka suffered a knee injury during the fight, leading to his defeat. The co-main event saw Paulo Costa face Azamat Murzakanov. Five fighters faced upsets, leaving them seeking new opponents. Prochazka's next matchup could be against the winner of Jan Blachowicz vs. Bogdan Guskov, scheduled for UFC 328.
