An extensive analysis of UFC 327 highlighted several key takeaways. Carlos Ulberg has scored six knockouts with his left check hook in his last 12 fights, an unprecedented rate in the UFC, and caught Prochazka three times before the finish despite Prochazka having been dropped by this punch twice against Pereira. The analyst noted Prochazka could have used wrestling or targeted Ulberg's injured knee but failed to adapt. Paulo Costa was praised for dismantling two top Russian strikers, Kopylova and Murzakanov, showing significant improvement despite only six fights in six years. The piece noted Murzakanov trained at K-Dojo under Murat Keshtov, questioning why he didn't use higher-level American gyms. Josh Hockitt impressed with elite athleticism comparable to Gane and Aspinall, though the judging decision was called essentially a coin flip given the difficulty of accurately scoring in real time.
