Dana White announced that Jiri Prochazka and Carlos Ulberg will headline UFC 327 on April 11, 2026, at the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida, competing for the vacant UFC Light Heavyweight Championship. The title became vacant after Alex Pereira vacated the belt to pursue a move to heavyweight. Prochazka, ranked #2 and a former light heavyweight champion, will face Ulberg, ranked #3, who is riding a nine-fight winning streak. The Czech fighter knocked out Jamahal Hill at UFC 311 to re-establish himself as a top contender, while Ulberg has been vocal about earning a title shot after his knockout victory over Dominick Reyes at UFC Perth. This matchup sets up a significant title fight between the division's top two contenders.
