Ray Longo criticizes Prohazka's 'mercy' claim, Ulberg questions sincerity

Ray Longo, trainer of Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, has harshly criticized Jiri Prohazka's post-fight explanation. Longo suggested the sport needs to address mental health issues, calling Prohazka's 'mercy' claim absurd and stating the fighter simply made a critical mistake. Carlos Ulberg also rejected Prohazka's explanation, stating it was fear, not mercy, that affected the fight. Ulberg accused Prohazka of playing to the audience and creating excuses to get a rematch, adding that Prohazka didn't approach him after the bout. Ulberg predicted Magomed Ankalaev would defeat Prohazka decisively. Additionally, the post notes Donald Trump told Paulo Costa after his fight that he's 'too handsome to be a fighter,' and mentions apparent tension at City Kickboxing gym between Israel Adesanya and Ulberg.
