Spotlighting Three Ascending Talents Set To Compete Inside The Octagon This Weekend
The last time the UFC ventured to Macau, the emerging names on the card included a pair of men that would go on to carry gold in the welterweight division — former interim champion Colby Covington, who debuted with a first-round stoppage win over Wang Anying, and former undisputed titleholder Tyron Woodley, who registered a first-round knockout win over Dong Hyun Kim in the co-main event.
Now, a decade later, the promotion returns to the “Las Vegas of the East” for a Fight Night event headlined by a pair of former champions looking to solidify their places in the bantamweight pecking order, as Petr Yan takes on streaking ex-flyweight ruler Deiveson Figueiredo in a highly anticipated five-round affair.
