Ray Longo criticizes Prochazka's excuses, says fear stopped him not mercy

Ray Longo, coach to Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, has strongly criticized Jiri Prochazka's post-fight explanations following his loss to Carlos Ulberg. Longo dismissed Prochazka's claim about showing mercy, suggesting that mental health issues in MMA need to be addressed and that Prochazka was simply lost and made a serious mistake. Carlos Ulberg echoed these sentiments, stating that fear, not mercy, stopped Prochazka and accusing him of playing to the audience with false narratives to secure a rematch. Ulberg also noted that Prochazka didn't approach him after the fight and suggested his behavior is designed only for public reaction. Additionally, the post mentions that Donald Trump told Paulo Costa after his fight that he is "too handsome to be a fighter." There are also reports of tension at City Kickboxing gym between Israel Adesanya and Ulberg, with neither supporting each other's recent performances.
