Ray Longo questions Prochazka's mental state, Ulberg denies mercy claim

Ray Longo, trainer of Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, has raised concerns about mental health issues in MMA, specifically referencing Jiri Prochazka's unusual training methods and post-fight claims. Longo criticized Prochazka's "mercy" explanation for his loss to Carlos Ulberg, stating the fighter simply made a serious mistake. Ulberg himself dismissed Prochazka's mercy narrative, claiming it was fear that caused the error and accusing him of playing to the audience for a rematch opportunity. Ulberg also revealed that Prochazka did not congratulate him after the fight and suggested tension exists at City Kickboxing gym, with Israel Adesanya and Ulberg reportedly not interacting. Additionally, the post mentions that Donald Trump complimented Paulo Costa after his fight, and that Ulberg may have suffered an ACL tear requiring 9-12 months recovery, though official diagnosis is pending.
