Carlos Ulberg has suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), according to his manager Ash Belcastro. Belcastro confirmed that Ulberg's surgery went "very well" and that the fighter is targeting the quickest possible return. Recovery from an ACL tear typically takes up to 12 months, meaning Ulberg may not compete again until late 2026. The post raises the question of whether the UFC should introduce an interim title due to the lengthy absence. The injury timing suggests Ulberg's light heavyweight title aspirations will be put on hold for nearly a year.
