Carlos Ulberg vs Dominick Reyes (Light Heavyweight) – Main Event
The UFC Perth main event delivers a high-stakes light heavyweight clash as Carlos Ulberg meets Dominick Reyes in a battle of surging contenders. Both men enter this matchup riding impressive winning streaks, and with the 205-pound title picture heating up, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
Ulberg, one of the brightest talents to emerge from Dana White’s Contender Series, has put together the longest active win streak in the division. The New Zealand native is unbeaten in eight straight since his lone loss in his UFC debut more than four years ago.
Most recently, he turned heads with dominant unanimous decision victories over former champion Jan Blachowicz and ex-title challenger Volkan Oezdemir, cementing himself as a legitimate force at light heavyweight.
Reyes, meanwhile, has staged a remarkable comeback after a difficult stretch. Once known as the man who nearly dethroned Jon Jones, the American has bounced back in spectacular fashion. He’s riding a three-fight winning streak, highlighted by a first-round finish of Dustin Jacoby and consecutive stoppages of Anthony Smith and Nikita Krylov.
With Alex Pereira set to defend his belt in a rematch against Magomed Ankalaev at UFC 320, the winner in Perth could be next in line for a title shot.
