UFC 5 career mode progress lost

been playing ufc 5 for a couple days now, accordiing to the PlayStation tracker 11 hours in total. Played without any issues until I tried loading my career today. It shows I am unranked while last night when I played I was ranked 1 and defended the belt 3 times. Haven’t touched the game since I tried loading today and it shows me as unranked without any fights done. My player/user level is still 7 as it was last night, throphies I have earned are still there as well. I use a PlayStation 5 and I have already restarted the console, tried to manage my game files and synchronizing them, checked for updates, uninstalled and installed the game again. But so far no luck on getting my progress back. I can start a new career and move on, but if my progress is gonna be wiped again there is no point in doing so.
