Carlos Ulberg Biography
Black Jag

Ulberg is living proof that falling flat in your Octagon debut is not a sign you can’t compete at the world’s highest level. Ulberg was knocked out by Kennedy Nzechukwu in his first UFC bout, but stormed back with a nine-fight winning streak to earn a shot at light heavyweight gold. Despite suffering an injury against Jiri Prochazka, Ulberg managed to land a perfect knockout shot and take the vacant title at UFC 327.

"You can't hurt what you can't kill."
