Despite injuring his knee and fighting on one leg, Carlos Ulberg beat Jiri Prochazka with a beautiful left hook that put Prochazka to sleep.
It was Ulberg’s first time headlining a big UFC card and he didn’t disappoint, winning the vacant light heavyweight championship belt.
It’s been over five years since Ulberg lost a fight.
Although it could be a while before we see Ulberg fight again as he rehabs whatever issue he has with his knee, the much rumored next opponent is Magomed Ankalaev.
The oddsmakers at BetOnline.ag have opened a line for this fight and they see Ulberg’s five-year winning streak coming to an end.
Carlos Ulberg +210
Magomed Ankalaev -250
A heavyweight bout between Josh Hokit and Derrick Lewis has been added to the UFC White House card.
The last-minute booking came after President Donald Trump, who attended UFC 327 in Miami on Saturday, asked Dana White why Lewis wasn’t on the card. White has previously noted that Lewis is one of Trump’s favorite fighters, and he moved quickly to correct the oversight.
BetOnline.ag quickly set a line for the fight and added it to its UFC White House offering.

Derrick Lewis +330
