Carlos Ulberg suffers ACL tear, recovery could take 12 months

Carlos Ulberg's manager Ash Belcastro has confirmed that the fighter suffered an ACL tear. Belcastro stated that the surgery went "very well" and that Ulberg is "aimed at returning as soon as possible." Recovery from this type of injury can take up to 12 months, meaning it is uncertain whether Ulberg will compete in the octagon by the end of 2026. The post raises the question of whether a temporary title should be introduced during his absence. No details were provided about when or how the injury occurred.
