A detailed analysis of UFC 327 highlights Carlos Ulberg's exceptional left check hook, which has produced six knockouts in his last 12 fights. The analyst notes that Jiri Prochazka was caught by this punch three times before the knockout, despite having been dropped by similar shots in two previous fights with Alex Pereira. The review also praises Paulo Costa's performance against Azamat Murzakanov, noting Costa's improved distance management and fight IQ despite only competing six times in six years. The analyst questions Murzakanov's training camp preparation at K-Dojo and notes his cardio limitations at age 37. Josh Hawkit's performance is also highlighted, with the analyst placing him among the top three most athletic heavyweights alongside Francis Ngannou and Tom Aspinall in recent years. The piece concludes by suggesting that the judging decision in the Hawkit-Blaydes fight was essentially a coin flip given the difficulty of accurately scoring the volume of strikes in real time.
