Carlos Ulberg vs. Jan Blachowicz

Ulberg put on an impressive performance at UFC London to rise to #3 in the Light Heavyweight rankings and towards a future title shot.

In a close fight, Ulberg just about edged Jan Blachowicz by circling the cage and peppering him with leg kicks, refusing to engage in a slugfest.

While many thought Blachowicz deserved the victory, Ulberg increased his winning streak to eight and moved closer to a shot at the Light Heavyweight title fight.

Carlos Ulberg vs Alonzo Menifield

The most spectacular victory of Ulberg’s career so far was his 12-second decimation of Alonzo Menifield in the UFC back in 2024.

Menifield ran straight at Ulberg as soon as the bell rang, and he expertly dodged the hits before unleashing a combination of his own.

His opponent staggered to his feet, only to eat even more punches, knocking him clean out after just 12 seconds to pick up a first-round victory.
