It looked like Prochazka would be gifted an easy finish after \u201cBlack Jag\u201d injured his knee in the early going. Prochazka appeared hesitant, and he paid the ultimate price. Ulberg <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bjpenn.com\/mma-news\/carlos-ulberg\/ufc-327-results-carlos-ulberg-kos-jiri-prochazka-video\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">finished his opponent with a hook and some ground punches<\/a> to capture the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship.<\/p>\n<p>In a reaction video posted on his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GLjs2p8IGH0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">YouTube channel<\/a>, O\u2019Malley revealed he felt Prochazka knows he let Ulberg off the hook and it cost him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJiri literally had him,\u201d O\u2019Malley said. \u201cHe was like 90 percent had him finished. Leg, something was going on with his stuff. Every time he threw that calf kick, Carlos just ate it. He wasn\u2019t even throwing right hands behind it. He was just eating them, and Jiri just didn\u2019t capitalize on it. He kind of rushes in, he has Carlos backed up against the cage. Carlos has a right hand and a left hook pretty much. That\u2019s it, and Jiri\u2019s hands just down by his hip.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>O\u2019Malley followed up with a humorous comment about what Prochazka will do to blow off some steam.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know he\u2019s gonna beat the [expletive] out of some tree in the woods,\u201d O\u2019Malley said.<\/p>\n<p>Prochazka claimed he showed \u201cmercy\u201d to Ulberg after the fight, and he admits it\u2019s a decision he regrets. He is hoping for a rematch, although the newly-minted 205-pound champion\u2019s status is unknown amid the knee injury.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think Jiri Prochazka will ever be UFC Light Heavyweight Champion again following his stunning KO loss to Carlos Ulberg?
