Next fight booked
Ulberg will take on Jan Blachowicz in a light heavyweight bout at UFC London on March 22, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Ulberg is looking to keep cruising. Since dropping his first career UFC fight back in 2021, he's won seven straight in the promotion. His chance at eight in a row will come against a fighter in Blachowicz who is seven years his senior and coming off shoulder surgery. Blachowicz also lost his last fight at the hands of Alex Pereira via split decision.

Winning streak hits seven
Ulberg defeated Volkan Oezdemir via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Macau, China.
ANALYSIS
Ulberg entered with stoppage wins in each of his past five fights, with four of them coming in Round 1. He was fresh off a 12-second knockout of Alonzo Menifield in May. Yes, he won this fight, but it would have been nice to see him do so a bit more convincingly considering he was facing an aging opponent in Oezdemir. Ulberg won the significant strike battle by a 98-96 count, while Volkan failed on the only two takedown attempts of the fight. Carlos is an elite kickboxer and very good at managing distance, so there are going to be nights like this when he's content to point-fight. He should get a more notable name his next time out.

Out for UFC 303
Ulberg is out for UFC 303 because of an undisclosed problem, according to Mike Heck of MMAFighting.com.
ANALYSIS
The undisclosed problem will prevent Ulberg from fighting Anthony Smith at UFC 303. This fight has been nothing but withdrawals, as the initial matchup was expected to be Jamahal Hill against Khalil Rountree. It is unclear how long Ulberg will sit out for.

Lionheart instead of Hill
Ulberg will compete against Anthony Smith in a light heavyweight fight at UFC 303 on June 29, according to UFC President Dana White.
ANALYSIS
Initially, Ulberg was scheduled to compete against former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jamahal Hill, who is currently dealing with a knee injury. Instead of facing a top-three contender in the division, Ulberg is settling for fighting a mainstay who recently defied betting odds by defeating Vitor Petrino at UFC 301.
