Ulberg denies Prochazka's mercy claim, predicts Ankalaev will defeat him

Carlos Ulberg firmly rejected Jiri Prochazka's assertion that he showed mercy during their UFC 327 fight. Ulberg stated that fear and indecision drove Prochazka's actions, not compassion, and accused Prochazka of playing to the audience rather than being genuine. The new light heavyweight champion believes Prochazka understands he's pretending and is using the mercy narrative as an excuse to secure a rematch. Ulberg dismissed any possibility of a rematch happening and predicted that Magomed Ankalaev will defeat Prochazka decisively. He emphasized that the difference between a champion and someone playing for the crowd is what defines true competition.
