Ray Longo criticizes Prochazka's mental approach and mercy claims

Ray Longo, trainer of Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, has harshly criticized Jiri Prochazka's mental approach to fighting and his claims about showing mercy to Carlos Ulberg. Longo suggested the sport needs to address mental health issues, referencing Prochazka's unconventional practices like drinking his own urine and standing on his head. He dismissed Prochazka's mercy explanation, stating the fighter simply made a bad mistake due to fear. Ulberg echoed these sentiments, claiming Prochazka's mercy story is fabricated to justify a rematch request and that Prochazka didn't congratulate him after the fight. Trump reportedly told Costa after his fight that he's "too handsome to be a fighter." There are also reports of tension at City Kickboxing between Israel Adesanya and Ulberg, with neither supporting the other's recent performances.
