Jan Blachowickz versus Carlos Ulberg is a UFC London 2025 co-main event on Friday night at the O2 Arena in London, England. Blachowickz (29-10-1), who joined the UFC in 2014, will enter the Octagon as the No. 3 fighter in the Light Heavyweight category. In September 2020, he won the UFC light heavyweight title after defeating Adesanya via a KO punch before defending his crown in a repeat matchup. However, he lost the title to Glover Teixeira in October 2021 and hasn’t won his last two fights, losing to Alex Pereira at UFC 291 in July 2023.
Carlos Ulberg (12-1-0), meanwhile, is a rising star in the light heavyweight category. ‘BlacK Jag’ is currently No. 6 in the rankings, boasting a phenomenal record of one loss in the UFC. The last time he tasted defeat in the franchise was at the UFC 259 in March 2021 against Kennedy Nzechukwu. Since then, he has gone on a rampage, winning four of his assignments via KO/TKO. His last fight was in November 2024 against Oezdemir, winning in round three via a unanimous decision.
