Czech MMA fighter Jiří Procházka failed to defend his shot at the UFC light heavyweight title. At the UFC 327 event in Miami, in the night's main event, he lost to New Zealand's Carlos Ulberg, who knocked him out with a left hook already in the first round. The fight took place before the eyes of American President Donald Trump. irozhlas.cz ↗
Procházka had the fight well underway, and according to experts, he had his opponent nearly beaten. Ulberg was seriously injured from the start of the first round — his leg was badly damaged and he could barely keep his balance. It was precisely in this situation, however, that Procházka made a fatal mistake. He felt sympathy for his injured opponent and chose not to attack him fully, instead of finishing him off or waiting for the doctor's intervention. reflex.cz ↗
This decision by the Czech star sparked stormy reactions in the world of MMA. Procházka himself later admitted that he felt sorry for his injured opponent and considered fighting an injured man unfair. He described his conduct as one of the biggest lessons of his life. Ulberg, however, took advantage of this opportunity and, after landing a quality left-hand strike, knocked Procházka to the ground, becoming the new champion of the light heavyweight division. For his knockout, he also received a bonus worth millions. denik.cz ↗
The defeat is especially painful for Procházka, as it is the third consecutive title fight he has lost. His approach in the fight is facing criticism from athletes and experts, who believe that in a title fight he should not have prioritized his feelings over victory. sport.sk ↗
