Ray Longo criticizes Prochazka's 'mercy' excuse, Ulberg questions sincerity

Ray Longo, trainer to Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling, made strong comments about mental health in MMA while addressing Jiri Prochazka's post-fight claims. Longo criticized Prochazka's explanation that he showed "mercy," calling it absurd and stating the fighter "just messed up badly." He referenced Prochazka's unconventional training methods including meditation, headstands, and drinking his own urine. Carlos Ulberg separately stated that Prochazka's mercy claim was "complete nonsense" and that fear was the real issue. Ulberg accused Prochazka of playing to the audience and noted he didn't approach him after their fight. Additionally, the post mentions Donald Trump told Paulo Costa he's "too handsome to be a fighter" after his bout, and reports potential tension at City Kickboxing gym between Israel Adesanya and Ulberg. Ulberg is suspected to have suffered an ACL tear with 9-12 month recovery time.
