Ulberg's check hook dominance and Ankalaev matchup analysis discussed after UFC 327

Carlos Ulberg has scored six knockouts or knockout sequences with his left check hook in his last 12 fights, a signature weapon he uses effectively against both orthodox and southpaw opponents. Prochazka was caught by this punch three times before the finish despite having been dropped twice by the same strike in his bouts with Pereira. Regarding a potential Ankalaev versus Ulberg matchup, the analysis gives Ankalaev a slight 55-45 edge due to his pressure and wrestling ability, though Ulberg is more mobile and faster than fighters like Pereira and Thiago Santos. The post also notes that Paulo Costa defeated both Nikita Krylov and Azamat Murzakanov, two of Russia's best strikers in MMA. Additionally, Josh Hockit impressed with his athleticism, speed, and ability to fight through fatigue, though the judging decision in his fight was described as extremely difficult to score accurately.
