Ray Longo, trainer to Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, heavily criticized Jiri Prochazka's post-fight comments about showing mercy to Carlos Ulberg. Longo suggested the sport needs to discuss mental health issues in MMA, referencing Prochazka's unconventional training methods and his claim of showing pity during the fight. He stated that Prochazka simply made a major mistake rather than showing mercy. Carlos Ulberg echoed these sentiments, saying Prochazka was driven by fear and is playing to the audience with excuses to get a rematch. Ulberg added that Prochazka didn't even approach him after the fight and believes Magomed Ankalaev will dominate him. The post also mentions tension at City Kickboxing gym between Israel Adesanya and Ulberg, and that Ulberg's suspected injury is an ACL tear with 9-12 months recovery time.
