Prochazka has been plotting a title shot against Ankalaev since the
Dagestani dethroned Alex
Pereira at UFC 313
earlier this month. However, Ankalaev has another matchup in mind
for Prochazka following UFC
London.
Surging contender Carlos
Ulberg defeated former champ Jan
Blachowicz via unanimous decision in the co-main event at UFC
London on Saturday. Ankalaev suggested a matchup between “Black
Jag” and Prochazka, calling the Czech “fake ninja” to mock his
bushido lifestyle.
Prochazka called Ankalaev a “fraud champion” in response while
questioning the integrity of his social media posts. “BJP” also
said that he is willing go through other tests to fight Ankalaev,
which means he isn’t exactly shying away from a potential fight
against Ulberg.
“Who wrote it, you? Or some your slave? Here you showed to everyone
who’s fraud champion,” Prochazka wrote on X. “Like I said, I want
your head. If I have to go through someone else to hunt you, so
let’s go for that.”

Ankalaev extended his unbeaten streak to 14 with his recent title
win over Pereira. Meanwhile Prochazka has alternated wins over
Aleksandar
Rakic and Jamahal
Hill with two title losses against Pereira in his last four.
Ulberg is on an eigh- fight winning streak, including five
finishes, since suffering his lone pro loss in his UFC debut in
2021.
