Carlos Ulberg's manager Ash Belcastro confirmed that the fighter has suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The manager stated that the surgery went "very well" and that Ulberg is focused on returning as quickly as possible. Recovery from this injury could take up to 12 months, making an appearance in the octagon by late 2026 uncertain. The post raises the question of whether an interim title should be introduced during Ulberg's absence. This represents a significant setback for the light heavyweight contender's career momentum.
