Quick read
Carlos Ulberg's manager Ash Belcastro has confirmed that the light heavyweight contender suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Ulberg underwent surgery which reportedly went "very well" according to his management team. The fighter is aiming to return to competition as soon as possible. Recovery from ACL reconstruction typically takes up to 12 months, meaning Ulberg may not compete until late 2026 at the earliest. The injury raises questions about whether the UFC should introduce an interim title during his absence. Ulberg was positioned as a top contender before the injury.
