UFC Returns to Kaseya Center in South Beach This Saturday

The UFC returns to the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida, on Saturday, April 11, 2026, for UFC 327. The event is headlined by a battle for the vacant UFC light heavyweight championship, featuring former champion Jiří Procházka and contender Carlos Ulberg.

The title is currently vacant following the move of Alex Pereira to the heavyweight division. The main event serves as a decisive clash to determine the next champion of the 205-pound division.

Main Event Context: Procházka vs. Ulberg

Jiří Procházka enters the bout as a former champion who vacated his belt due to a significant shoulder injury rather than losing it in the Octagon. Following that injury, Procházka suffered two losses to Alex Pereira during his attempts to reclaim the title.

Procházka is coming off a victory in October 2025 at UFC 320, where he secured a come-from-behind finish against Khalil Rountree Jr.

He will face Carlos Ulberg, described as a streaking contender, in the fight to crown the new light heavyweight champion.
