Analyst notes that Carlos Ulberg has scored six knockouts with his left check hook in his last 12 fights, displaying exceptional timing with the strike against both orthodox and southpaw opponents. At UFC 327, Jiri Prochazka was caught by the same punch three times before being knocked out, despite having been dropped twice by Alex Pereira with the same technique previously. The analysis questions why Prochazka didn't utilize wrestling or leg kicks after Ulberg's knee injury became apparent during the fight. Looking ahead to a potential matchup between Ulberg and Magomed Ankalaev, the analyst gives Ankalaev a slight 55-45 edge despite Ankalaev's vulnerability to the left check hook. The piece also covers Paulo Costa's knockout of Azamat Murzakanov and Josh Hokit's performance against Curtis Blaydes.
