The night produced five finishes, headlined by one of the most improbable knockouts in light heavyweight title history. UFC 327 delivered stoppages across all three portions of the card, with submissions and TKOs spread from the early prelims through the main event. It was the kind of night in Miami that reminded fans why finish-heavy cards leave a lasting mark.
Ulberg winning the title on one leg is the kind of thing you don't believe until you see it. Carlos Ulberg suffered what appeared to be a serious knee injury early in the round, and Jiří Procházka immediately attacked it with targeted leg kicks. Just when it looked like Procházka would finish the fight, Ulberg landed a counter left hand that put the former champion on the canvas and ended the fight at 3:45 of round one.
Costa looked like a completely different fighter at light heavyweight, and Murzakanov had no answer for his striking. Paulo Costa used his natural size advantage and sharp hands throughout the fight before finishing with a head kick TKO in round three at 1:23. The performance put Costa squarely in the title picture at 205 pounds.
Swanson's finish was memorable, but this is the best way to go out. Cub Swanson made his retirement official in style, stopping Nate Landwehr via TKO in round one in what was billed as his final fight. Elsewhere on the prelims, Mateusz Gamrot submitted Esteban Ribovics with an arm-triangle choke in round two, Tatiana Suarez locked up a rear-naked choke to finish Lupita Godínez, and Vicente Luque reminded everyone what he does best with a first-round D'arce choke of Kelvin Gastelum.
