Rumored Jiří Procházka vs Carlos Ulberg title-eliminator set for UFC 327 in Miami on April 11

[Travis Alexander]

Honestly Pereira really should be the return opponent for Aspinall. Gane ruined a title fight with his habit of dirty fighting so he loses his spot and Pereira can have his shot at triple champ

Send Gane 2-3 years PFL and forget

Yea let’s send one of the top 2 HW’s on a paper thin roster to PFL . That’s a solid idea.

Fun fight!

BTW.. what are they doing with Pereira? Is he getting the Jones fight or a shot at the HW strap?

Fun fight though its just weird that it isnt for the vacant title, or 1 of them arent fighting Poatan.

Fucking incredible fight!!!! I guess this means Alex is making the move to HW ! I actually like this move by the UFC. This fight has fucking fireworks written all over it! Also Alex going for a triple crown is perfect especially given his age and activity level the past few years, I can’t imagine a more deserving guy to get that opportunity.

This confirms Alex vs Gane basically.

Considering Jiri vs Ulberg happens, with the understanding that Tom will be out for a while, some kind of interim Heavyweight title fight between Gane and Pereira wouldn’t surprise me at all.

That fight would be fucking amazing!
With the introduction of Rico onto the roster and (HOPEFULLY) the signing of Gable the HW division would transform from the worst division in the UFC to arguably the most exciting in 2026!

Just let Ulberg get a title shot.
I don't need to see Jiri win and get smoked again by Poatan.

Look at you acting like poatan will ever defend his title

 

[fortheo]

I guess the ufc just isn't interested In ulberg as a title contender.

 

[DougieJones]

22 votes and I'm the only one voting for Ulberg?
Crazy odds

Jiri is always up for a 50:50 fight being a crazy mofo
I got Ulberg by ko though. Too technical, big and powerful. Weird that he is 2 years older than Jiri.
Jiri had 38 fights and Ulberg 14

Holy shit I had no idea Ulberg was already 35

I had been thinking he was only like 30 or 31

 

[whocares]

It's a nice change of pace when the fight that should happen, happens. 1st round KO Ulberg.

 

[RichardHarrow]

Poatan deserves a break.

 

[mooseman17]

Ulberg with the upset. Rooting for Jiri though

I’d be pretty surprised if Ulberg isn’t the betting favorite in this fight.

Would love this as a 5 round co-main and not just 3.

Gane is an annoying rank-squatting cheater who lost to HW volk. i'm with the guy you replied to. And why are we talking about Gane in a Jiri thread?

 

[jeskola]

Also this means no LHW title fight at White House.

 

[Dionysian]

Yes! Please also make it for the interim title if Alex is unavailable for whatever reason

Yea let’s send one of the top 2 HW’s on a paper thin roster to PFL . That’s a solid idea.

Alex + Tom + Sergei + Volkov + Jailton all beat Gane

Not even top 5. If we are talking total number of bullshit title shots though, yes, he is above top 2 / is the obviously the most of all time.

 

[Aldo145]

Is him vs Gane confirmed then? This fight feels weird

 

[dog y]

Gawd dang.
This is a fight. Holy shit.
WAAAARRRRRR

 

[dog y]

Hopefully Jiri sleeps him
Nulbergs only good win is Jan

You say that like Jan isn't still a top guy.

 

[jeskola]

You say that like Jan isn't still a top guy.

he's 60 and

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

War Jiri, Jiri by KO round 2

 

[CatchtheseHands]

I never count Jiri out of a fight but this match up is a hard one for Jiri for sure. Carlos is a big, powerful guy with long reach and quite a technical striker. If Khalil was able to take 2 rounds off Jiri I can fully see Carlos being able to do the same or more. Of course Jiri could always possibly find the finish like he has always done (with the exception of Poatan) but I for some reason don't think it will happen with Carlos and he will more than likely get the upset. Just my opinion though.

I'd jizz my pants if they announced that

I guess the ufc just isn't interested In ulberg as a title contender.

And I can't understand for the life of me why
