Carlos Ulberg Eyes Rise in UFC Light Heavyweight<\/h2>\n\nThe number 3 ranked fighter in the UFC’s light heavyweight division, Carlos Ulberg, radiates a notable presence. Ahead of his fight against Dominick Reyes, Ulberg is excited about the opportunity ahead.\n\n\n

\u201cI hadn’t noticed it when I came in, but this is incredible. This is what you work hard for. I love it. It’s beautiful.\u201d<\/p>Carlos Ulberg<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nHis UFC debut in March 2021 was a slugfest, but since then, Ulberg has rebuilt his career, amassing an eight-fight win streak. His victory over former champion Jan Blachowicz in London secured him a spot at the top of the division, setting him up for a headline clash in the Southern Hemisphere.\n\n\n

Reyes, ranked number 7 in the division, is also on a three-win streak and has competed against the best in the category.\n\n\n

\u201cIt’s dangerous, and I hope he comes out with everything. He’s smart. He knows what he’s doing. He can use the cage, use his reach well, and he’s accurate. He knows how to use his left hand. He also has a good right hook, so you have to be careful with him.\u201d<\/p>Carlos Ulberg<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nFor Reyes, this is an opportunity to consolidate his position in the title race, while Ulberg will seek the support of the public, as Perth has become a home for New Zealand fighters.\n\n\n
