UFC Perth Results: Carlos Ulberg Earns Potential Title Shot wiht Devastating reyes Knockout
Perth,Australia – Carlos Ulberg delivered a stunning first-round knockout of former title contender Dominick Reyes in the main event of UFC Perth on Saturday,bolstering his claim for a light heavyweight title shot. The victory, secured at 1:12 of the opening round, was a showcase of Ulberg’s power and precision, and promptly elevates him into the upper echelon of the 205-pound division.
The win marks a significant turning point for Ulberg (8-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC), who has rapidly ascended the light heavyweight rankings with a string of impressive finishes. Reyes (12-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC), a former challenger too Jon Jones, had been on a three-fight losing streak, and this defeat further complicates his future in the sport. Ulberg’s performance has ignited speculation about a potential clash with current champion Alex Pereira, or a matchup against former champion Jiří Procházka.
