I can’t help but think things couldn’t have gone better for the UFC. Not that Jessica Andrade losing the belt is a bad thing, nor is it bad Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos had his seven-fight win streak snapped. No, it’s that the UFC finally appears to be making some headway in the most populace country in the world, China. Weili Zhang became the first Chinese champion when she dethroned Andrade and while Jingliang Li was already established as a UFC talent, he made himself an established ranked talent when he overthrew dos Santos, the first fighter in the male rankings to do so.
