Overview
- Jiri Prochazka vs. Carlos Ulberg is set for April 11 at Miami’s Kaseya Center to decide the vacant UFC light heavyweight title after Alex Pereira relinquished the belt to pursue heavyweight.
- Prochazka says he intends to “hunt” Ulberg and keep constant pressure, asserting the City Kickboxing striker is less comfortable backing up or grappling.
- The former champion reports a short training stint at elevation in Mexico as part of his preparation for the five‑round main event.
- Ulberg enters on a nine‑fight winning streak and a 13–1 record, earning the shot after a first‑round stoppage of Dominick Reyes last September.
- Prochazka says his partner is due to give birth April 13–15 and that he agreed to fight near the date only for a title opportunity, adding he still expects a future meeting with Pereira.
