Carlos Ulberg's manager Ash Belcastro confirmed that the fighter suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Belcastro noted that the surgery went "very well" and that Ulberg is "focused on returning as soon as possible." Recovery from this type of injury can take up to 12 months, making it uncertain whether Ulberg will be able to compete in the Octagon by the end of 2026. The post raises the question of whether an interim title should be introduced during his absence.
