00:00UFC 327 was an interesting night, to say the least, and some fighters really improved their
00:07stock, while others have some work to do.
00:10Let's take a look at the stock watch for the UFC after their latest offering on Pay-Per-View
00:16in Canada, and I guess PLE, down everywhere else.
00:30So, UFC 327 now behind us, here is the stock watch.
00:35Let's, we'll start, we'll start on the negative.
00:38The down arrow, pointing for Dominic Reyes.
00:42Yes, it's a win, but it's one where a lot of people were talking about how underwhelming
00:47the fight was when it was done.
00:49That's not great.
00:49So, I feel like Dominic Reyes, at a time where things are opening up at 205 pounds again,
00:57I feel like he kind of needed a bit more of an exclamation mark on his performance to
01:01get that done.
01:02And so, if we're going to put him there, we have to put Johnny Walker as well, as the fall
01:06continues for a guy who was once an exciting and very interesting fighter in the UFC.
01:12I don't think he moves the needle much anymore, and I don't think this performance at UFC
01:18327 helps him out either.
01:20And then, number one on the down list, I think it has to be Yuri Prohachka.
01:25When you have me and others talking about the gigantic choke job that it was, and you
01:30get knocked out by a dude whose knee just exploded, that's not awesome.
01:35And that is really going to hurt.
01:37And now, we could be looking at an interim title situation, and I don't know if there's
01:41many people who are going to be calling for a Prohachka to step into that spot.
01:45So, he is the one who I think, his stock took the biggest hit coming out of UFC 327.
01:49As far as the ones who are trending up, the arrow is pointing way up for Aaron Pico, a
01:56brilliant performance against Patricio Pitbull on the undercard of UFC 327.
02:01That's the guy that everyone has been wanting to see.
02:04It was an underwhelming UFC debut, but now that he's got that out of the way and puts on
02:09a very good performance against a very real fighter in the UFC, it's back on track for
02:15this dude, and it is maybe too much too soon, but I am looking for a pretty significant step
02:21up in competition for him, and just kind of assuming that he's back on track.
02:24This one, maybe it feels weird to say this about a guy retiring, but Cub Swanson, a fantastic
02:31way to go out for his career, and I love that he got some flowers, and I love that he
02:35got
02:35celebrated in the octagon after and just throughout the fight week.
02:39So, it's more a career up arrow for Cub Swanson, who gets to end this thing on a high note.
02:46But number one, it has to be Carlos Ulberg, the new, undisputed for now, light heavyweight
02:52champion of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, getting one of the all-timer knockout wins over
02:58Yuri Prohachka, and picking up the dub there.
03:03He has been progressing to this moment, and he finally comes up with a big one.
03:06So, Carlos Ulberg is the one who has the arrow pointing up the most, coming out of UFC 327.
