UFC Macau: Full fight card
Former bantamweight champ Petr “No Mercy” Yan has been relatively quiet in the octagon, with just two fights in the past two years. However, he reminded everyone of his skills by derailing China’s rising star Song Yadong in March with an impressive unanimous decision win.
On the other hand, Brazil’s “God of War,” Deiveson Figueiredo, has been far more active and has faced tougher competition. Since moving up to 135 lbs, he’s racked up three big wins in just over a year, defeating Rob Font, Cody Garbrandt, and Marlon Vera.
Meanwhile, the co-main event is shaping up to be a must-watch clash in the women’s strawweight division, with China’s Yan Xiaonan taking on Brazil’s Tabatha Ricci. But that’s not all—this fight card is stacked with exciting matchups across multiple divisions. In the welterweight division, Song Kenan from China goes toe-to-toe with the dangerous Muslim Salikhov.
Over in the women’s flyweight division, Wang Cong will square off against Gabriella Fernandes.
