Carlos Ulberg undergoes ACL surgery, recovery up to 12 months

Carlos Ulberg's manager Ash Belcastro confirmed the fighter suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Ulberg has undergone surgery, which Belcastro described as going "very well." The manager stated that Ulberg is focused on returning as soon as possible. Recovery from ACL surgery typically takes up to 12 months, meaning the light heavyweight contender may not compete until late 2026. The post raises the question of whether an interim title should be introduced during Ulberg's absence, though it does not specify if he currently holds a championship.
