Quick read
Carlos Ulberg's manager Ash Belcastro has confirmed that the UFC light heavyweight contender suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Belcastro stated that the surgery went "very well" and that Ulberg is focused on returning as quickly as possible. Recovery from ACL surgery typically takes up to 12 months, making it unlikely that Ulberg will compete in the octagon before the end of 2026. The news raises questions about whether the UFC should introduce an interim title at light heavyweight given the champion's extended absence.
