Ray Longo criticizes Prochazka's mercy excuse, Ulberg says fear was real factor

Ray Longo, trainer of Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, spoke about mental health issues in MMA while criticizing Jiri Prochazka's post-fight explanation. Longo dismissed Prochazka's claim that he showed mercy, stating the fighter simply made a serious mistake and stood there lost. Carlos Ulberg also rejected Prochazka's mercy narrative, asserting that fear was actually what held him back. Ulberg accused Prochazka of playing to the audience and noted that Prochazka didn't even approach him after the fight. Ulberg suggested Prochazka's excuse-making is aimed at securing a rematch, though he believes Magomed Ankalaev will defeat Prochazka decisively. The post also mentions that Donald Trump told Paulo Costa he's "too handsome to be a fighter" after his bout.
