Quick read
Ray Longo, coach to Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, harshly criticized Jiri Prochazka's post-fight explanation about showing "mercy" to Carlos Ulberg. Longo called for discussion about mental health in MMA, mocking Prochazka's unconventional practices like drinking his own urine and standing on his head. He stated Prochazka simply made a major mistake rather than showing mercy. Ulberg echoed this sentiment, saying fear held Prochazka back, not mercy, and accused him of playing to the audience. Ulberg also noted Prochazka never congratulated him after the fight and believes the "mercy" narrative is an excuse to get a rematch. Additionally, Trump reportedly told Costa "you're too handsome to be a fighter" after his victory.
