Crushing loss in title fight Prochazka came up short in his quest for the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship on Saturday, falling to Carlos Ulberg via KO (punches) at 3:45 of Round 1 at UFC 327 in Miami.

Impact You're going to be hearing about this one for a long time and not in a positive way for Prochazka. Jiri was struggling early on, absorbing too many low kicks. Yet the fight appeared to be all but over after Ulberg blew his right knee out. He was hobbling around the octagon and it seemed to only be a matter of time before either Prochazka put him away, or the doctor decided he could no longer continue. Instead, Jiri got clipped with a left hook which dropped him to the mat. A few follow-up shots later, he was done for good. It's a missed opportunity for Prochazka which will probably be impossible to overcome. Jiri's entertaining style will keep him relevant, especially in a thin light heavyweight division, but at age 33 and a ton of MMA miles on his body, this may have been his last chance to fight for UFC gold.
