Pros react after Carlos Ulberg defeats Jan Blachowicz at UFC London
Today’s UFC London event was co-headlined by a key light heavyweight bout between former division champ Jan Blachowicz and Carlos Ulberg.
Blachowicz (29-11-1 MMA) was competing for the first time since dropping a split decision loss to Alex Pereira at UFC 291 in July of 2023. The Polish powerhouse had gone 2-2-1 over his previous five Octagon appearances overall.
Meanwhile, Carlos Ulberg (12-1 MMA) entered tonight’s co-main event boasting a 7-fight win streak, his most previous victory being a unanimous decision win over Volkan Oezdemir. Prior to that, ‘Black Jag’ had scored a 12-second knockout victory over Alonzo Menifield in May of 2024.
Tonight’s UFC London co-main event resulted in a hard fought back-and-forth affair. Jan Blachowicz appeared to get the better of Carlos Ulberg in the opening round, but ‘Black Jag’ was able to land the better volume in round two. After 10 minutes it appeared the bout was all square. The final round saw both men find success, but after a close final five minutes, the judges awarded the decision in favor of Ulberg.

UFC fans hate my style bc i spend majority of my time going for takedowns and ground and pound… But EVERY fight i go for it!! Start fast and finish fast never playing it safe. Many times I win a few times I go to sleep. But this waiting to counter strike style is 👎🏿!#ufclondon

Don't agree with that decision and I thought Ulberg would win… But I dont think he did. Ran the whole fight trying to counter.. Jan controlled the cage from start to finish. #ufclondon
