Carlos Ulberg's championship victory marks the 20th UFC title won by fighters from Australia and New Zealand combined. The count includes the Whittaker vs. Romero rematch, which the post argues should have remained a title fight for Whittaker despite Romero missing weight. Per capita, the Australia-New Zealand region leads all other continents with one title win per 1.6 million population, ahead of North America's one per 2.3 million. The post also highlights the region's success in boxing and Olympic sports, attributing it to strong sports science infrastructure. Roman Fomin, UFC Performance Institute director of sports science, previously stated that Australian sports science is among the world's best.
