Magomed Ankalaev unexpectedly issued a challenge to Jiří Procházka following Procházka's knockout loss to Carlos Ulberg at UFC 327. Ankalaev praised the quality of the fight but then directly called out Procházka for a potential matchup. The post humorously suggests that Ankalaev may have taken control of his social media away from his manager Ali Abdelaziz to make the callout himself. This is notable as Ankalaev and Procházka are both top light heavyweight contenders. The timing of the callout, immediately after Procházka's devastating loss, adds an element of controversy to Ankalaev's challenge.
