Welcome to the live blog coverage of the UFC London event, focusing on the highly anticipated light heavyweight co-main event between Jan Blachowicz and Carlos Ulberg. The fight is set to take place this Saturday at the O2 Arena.
Jan Blachowicz, a former light heavyweight titleholder, is making his return to the octagon after being sidelined for over a year due to a shoulder injury. Fight fans last saw the “Legendary Polish Power” in a very close split decision loss to Alex Pereira. Now fully healed, Blachowicz aims to re-establish himself as a top contender in the division with a victory over the fast-rising Ulberg.
Carlos Ulberg, currently holding the No. 6 spot in the UFC light heavyweight rankings, entered the promotion in 2021. Despite an initial setback with a knockout loss to Kennedy Nzechukwu, “Ladies Night” has since demonstrated remarkable form, securing seven consecutive wins. Ulberg now faces the biggest challenge of his career, presenting him with the opportunity to solidify his claim for a title shot by defeating Blachowicz.
