The UFC 327 main event has been officially confirmed after both fighters successfully weighed in. Jiri Prochazka came in at 92.07 kg, while Carlos Ulberg weighed 92.53 kg, both within the light heavyweight limit. The vacant title fight will proceed as planned. This weigh-in confirms one of the most anticipated matchups on the card, with both contenders competing for the championship belt.
Both Jiri Prochazka and Carlos Ulberg cleared the scales on Friday, locking in the UFC 327 light heavyweight title main event for Saturday night. Prochazka weighed in at 92.07 kg and Ulberg at 92.53 kg, both comfortably inside the divisional limit. With the weight formality settled, the vacant championship belt is up for grabs as scheduled.
Prochazka, the second-ranked light heavyweight, enters the contest carrying a 32-6-1 record. The 33-year-old Czech Republic native trains out of Jetsaam Gym Brno and stands six-foot-three with an 80-inch reach. He lands 5.69 significant strikes per minute at 55 percent accuracy, making him one of the division's most dangerous offensive presences.
Ulberg, known as "Black Jag," holds the third ranking in the division and brings a 15-1-0 record into the bout. The New Zealand fighter, who trains at the renowned City Kickboxing gym, is 35 years old and stands six-foot-four with a 77-inch reach. His striking output actually edges Prochazka's, with 6.54 significant strikes landed per minute at the same 55 percent accuracy clip.
Why it matters
- The light heavyweight title is vacant, meaning a new champion will be crowned Saturday night
- A Prochazka victory would move the second-ranked contender to the top of the division; an Ulberg win does the same for the third-ranked New Zealander
- Both fighters are high-volume orthodox strikers with near-identical accuracy, setting up a potentially explosive stand-up exchange
- City Kickboxing's continued rise as a title-contending gym adds a broader divisional storyline to the matchup
