The vacant light heavyweight championship is on the line in the main event of Saturday’s UFC 327 when former champion Jiri Prochazka battles Carlos Ulberg.

Prochazka won the title from Glover Teixeira in 2022 but was forced to vacate the belt after suffering an injury. Prochazka twice failed to regain the belt in losses to Alex Pereira, the only man to have defeated Prochazka in the UFC. Now that Pereira has vacated the belt to challenge for the interim heavyweight championship at UFC Freedom 250 at the White House, Prochazka has a clear path back to the title.

Saturday represents Ulberg’s first chance at UFC gold. After suffering a knockout loss to Kennedy Nzechukwu in his UFC debut, it appeared Ulberg may have a lower ceiling than the hype that was behind him entering that night. Since that loss, Ulberg has rattled off nine wins, six by stoppage, and now finds himself on the verge of being UFC champion.

In the co-main event, Paulo Costa returns to action in a light heavyweight fight against Azamat Murzakanov. Costa has struggled late in his career, posting a 2-4 record in his last six appearances. Costa, 34, is coming off an impressive win over Roman Kopylov last July. Murzakanov, meanwhile, is 16-0 so far in his career with 12 knockouts to his name. In fact, the Russian has scored three straight knockouts against an increasingly difficult set of opponents in Alonzo Menifield, Brendson Ribeiro and Aleksandr Rakic.

UFC 327 predictions, picks

With such a massive main event on tap, the crew at CBS Sports went ahead with predictions and picks for the main card from Brian Campbell, Brent Brookhouse, Shakiel Mahjouri, Michael Mormile and Brandon Wise.

Jiri Prochazka vs. Carlos Ulberg predictions

Campbell: Let’s face it, Prochazka was built for danger. Words like patience and gameplans only water down what this exciting slugger brings to the table. And with nemesis Alex Pereira having moved up to heavyweight, the time is now for Prochazka to regain his 205-pound title. For as quick and powerful as Ulberg can be, the awkwardness of Prochazka should be enough to give him pause and freeze him. That’s the only opening Prochazka needs to land the big one and finish him off. As evidenced by his rally to finish Khalil Rountree Jr. in the final round last October after being picked apart for most of the fight, Prochazka’s ability to carry his cardio through chaos while dragging foes into the deep end of the pool is unique unto itself and the only man to beat him in the Octagon is no longer in this division. 

Brookhouse: Prochazka is a throwback fighter in the sense that his style is unrefined and nearly as strange as his personality. He’s the kind of guy who used to litter MMA cards before everyone trained and refined their game to where a generally homogeneous way of fighting dominates fight cards, with small edges in techniques deciding most fights. For that reason, and the excitement his fights produce as a result, I never want to pick against Prochazka unless it’s against another throwback type of fighter — like Alex Pereira.

Mahjouri: Prochazka is never a safe bet, but that’s why we love him. He will probably get rocked, and we’ll watch with bated breath. But Prochazka has the sheer audacity to eat Ulberg’s punches, march forward and drag the technical striker into an inescapable hellstorm. Prochazka has only lost to Alex Pereira in the UFC — losses that age better with every accolade “Poatan” achieves. Until someone other than Pereira crushes my dreams, I’ll ride with Prochazka.

Azamat Murzakanov vs. Paulo Costa predictions

Campbell: This is the type of big-name opponent the unbeaten Murzakanov needs to truly crack the title picture. Expect Costa, who has lost four of his last six bouts and is making his return to light heavyweight, to play his part as the perfect foil. Costa will be dangerous at times and his reputation for a sturdy chin should be enough to help him go the distance. But he’s simply outgunned in this matchup should he decide to go blow for blow with the powerful Murzakanov. Costa has historically only lost to the best of his division and Murzakanov is starting to look as if he fits that mold.

Brookhouse: One of Costa’s best qualities is his toughness. I don’t know if that toughness will hold up in moving to light heavyweight against a guy who has been ripping through established light heavyweights the way Murzakanov has. While Costa is good at making a fight ugly and willing to make his opponent wallow in the muck with him, he’s not the guy used to fighting at light heavyweight or the one who has actual career momentum, having gone 2-4 since 2020.

Mahjouri: Costa is nearly impossible to finish. That’s a valuable asset against a known knockout artist like Murzakanov. Costa is coming off an impressive win over Roman Kopylmov, where he fought with veteran composure. I don’t have enough information to support Costa as a light heavyweight. Murzakanov’s decision win over Dustin Jacoby wasn’t pretty, but at least I know he can win a 15-minute fight.

Curtis Blaydes vs. Josh Hokit predictions

Campbell: Is the colorful Hokit, an athletic heavyweight with power and a solid wrestling background, the type of newcomer that the division badly needs? Eventually, that could very well be true. But this feels like too much, too soon for the former NFL player in just his seventh pro fight and third walk to the Octagon since debuting in the UFC last November. The fact that the 35-year-old Blaydes has only lost to sluggers with fast hands makes this an interesting matchup given Hokit’s aggressive style and confidence in his technique. But those same heavyweights were named Francis Ngannou (twice), Derrick Lewis, Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall. Hokit has yet to go the distance as a pro and has seen six of his eight fights end in the first round. Expect Blaydes to test Hokit’s gas tank over the full 15 minutes and rely on his wrestling and experience to humble the brash upstart. 

Brookhouse: I could pick against Hokit on the fact that I don’t want to see his post-fight promo alone. Beyond personal taste, this feels as though it could be a case of too much, too soon for Hokit. Heavyweight isn’t currently a deep division, but Blaydes is one of the few men who has shown himself to be a reliable performer in the division, and his performances have been good enough that he holds the No. 5 spot in the heavyweight rankings. Hokit has skills, but he has only shown those skills in eight career fights, two in the UFC. And Blaydes is worlds better and more dangerous than Max Gimenis and Denzel Freeman, Hokit’s two UFC opponents. I side with the man who has proven himself dangerous against many of the best in the division over the man hoping to establish himself as on that level.

Morocco defender Achraf Hakimi has admitted he is not proud of the towel incident that overshadowed key moments at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

The incident first came into focus during Nigeria’s semi-final clash against Morocco, where Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali had his towel repeatedly taken away by pitch-side staff.

The situation drew attention again in the final between Morocco and Senegal, with similar actions involving players and goalkeepers, including Senegal’s Edouard Mendy.

Hakimi has now spoken openly about the controversy, admitting that the scenes did not reflect well on the team.

“They were difficult moments, full of tension inside the stadium,” Hakimi said. “I don’t feel proud of the image we showed because of the towel incident.”

Despite the controversy, the Paris Saint-Germain full-back insisted that Morocco remained competitive and respectful throughout the tournament.

“Still, the team presented a good competitive showing. We respected the opponent and the tournament,” he added.

The issue came amid wider drama at the competition, after Senegal walked out during the final at the Stade Prince Moulay Abdallah, leading to Morocco being declared champions by the Confederation of African Football.

Hakimi also addressed the ongoing dispute over the title, as Senegal have taken their appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

“What should happen is currently being assessed, and we hope a decision is taken that serves the interests of African football,” Hakimi said.

“We hope to get the title because we deserve it, and because you can’t leave the pitch that way.”

Former NFL quarterback Browning Nagle, a Louisville standout in the 1991 Fiesta Bowl, has died, his alma mater announced Friday. He was 57.

Nagle was diagnosed with colon cancer earlier this year.

He made his pro football debut in 1991 after the New York Jets selected the strong-armed quarterback in the second round. Nagle saw limited action in his rookie season, attempting just one pass, but he moved into the starting role in 1992.

Nagle finished his time as the Jets’ starter with a 3-10 record and seven touchdown passes.

Boomer Esiason, the 1988 NFL MVP, was traded from the Cincinnati Bengals to the Jets in 1993, relegating Nagle to a reserve role. Nagle joined the Indianapolis Colts in 1994 before ending his NFL career with the Atlanta Falcons.

Nagle was long linked to Brett Favre, whom the Jets had targeted in the 1991 NFL Draft. After failing to trade up, New York selected Nagle after Atlanta took Favre one pick earlier at No. 33 overall.

Months before entering the NFL, Nagle etched his name into college football lore, throwing for 451 yards and three touchdowns in Louisville’s upset win over Alabama in the 1991 Fiesta Bowl.

“His leadership on the field and passion for the game left a lasting mark on our program.

In Spain, Real Madrid have handed Barcelona a clear run at the Spanish title. Meanwhile, in England, reigning champions Liverpool will attempt to turn their fortunes around today as they navigate a prolonged spell of turbulence.

In other news, the first leg of the CAF Champions League semi-finals begins with a match between Moroccan clubs AS FAR and Renaissance de Berkane. AS FAR manager Alexandre Santos has described this two-legged tie as “decisive” for the future of his club.

Finally, in tennis, Monégasque player Valentin Vacherot, last year’s revelation, is continuing his fine form. After defeating Australia’s Alex de Minaur in the Monte Carlo tournament quarter-finals, the 27-year-old will face Carlos Alcaraz today for a place in the final.

PurplePTSD works in partnership with Vikings Territory, similarly doing their utmost to offer top-notch coverage of the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, we’re promoting five of their top articles of the past month in “The P/PTSD Perspective.” Take a peek at some of their best stuff.

The P/PTSD Perspective: April 11th, 2026

1) Vikings Bring an Andrew Van Ginkel Clone into the Lab: Worth it to take another shot, right? Mason Reiger has several parallels to Minnesota’s best defender. Maybe sinking a Day 3 selection into the pass rusher makes sense.

2) The Christian Darrisaw Update: A totally healthy Christian Darrisaw would make a massive difference. He is a left tackle who is on the cusp of elite. Getting (and staying) healthy is what’s needed for the player who is firmly in his prime.

3) Vikings Host “Sleeper Receiver:” Some in Minnesota are nervous about the receiver depth, or lack thereof. To my mind, there’s not much reason for concern. The WR1 and WR2 are excellent. Next up is Tai Felton, who did tremendously on specials as a rookie. Minnesota is fine, but they could opt for a WR in the 3rd or later.

4) Vikings Could Land Elite Weapon: In theory, there’s some possibility, but I wouldn’t hold my breath. Best guess is that the current runner pair gets supported by a speedy young lad from the 2026 NFL Draft (and possibly an add or two from the UDFA portion of things).

5) ESPN Proposes No-No Vikings Trade: So far, Rob Brzezinski hasn’t pulled off a trade. His most recent companions in the front office have been Rick Spielman and Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, neither of whom demonstrated much skittishness about constructing a trade. The trade idea has some merit.

Enjoy the extra reading, Vikings fans.
