Ülberg's left check hook dominance continues with Procházka knockout at UFC 327

Carlos Ülberg extended his remarkable pattern of knockouts with the left check hook, recording six such finishes in his last twelve fights at UFC 327. Jiří Procházka was caught by the same punch three times before the final knockout, despite having been dropped twice by Alex Pereira using the same technique in previous encounters. The analyst notes that Procházka failed to develop a safe approach to close distance against this specific weapon. Ülberg injured his knee during the fight but Procházka did not capitalize by attacking the leg or attempting takedowns. For a potential Ülberg versus Ankalaev matchup, the analyst gives Ankalaev a slight 55-45 edge, noting that while Ülberg is more mobile and dangerous with the check hook, Ankalaev's pressure and wrestling could be effective. Paulo Costa's knockout of Azamat Murzakanov also drew attention, with concerns raised about Murzakanov's training camp at K-Dojo and his limited gas tank at age 37.
