UFC Shanghai Features Key Bantamweight Clash and Exciting Fights

This Saturday, the UFC will host an event at the SPD Bank Oriental Sports Center in Shanghai, China, featuring a lineup of 13 fights, including a significant bantamweight main event.

The main event showcases No. 2-ranked Umar Nurmagomedov facing No. 6-ranked Song Yadong in a five-round bout. Nurmagomedov, with an 8-1 record in the UFC, is looking to bounce back after a previous title shot loss, while Song, holding a 12-5 record, aims to build on his recent submission victory over Deiveson Figueiredo.

The co-main event features a matchup between Yan Xiaonan and Denise Gomes, both top-10 strawweights. Yan, a former title challenger, returns after a year away, while Gomes seeks to extend her four-fight win streak. Other notable fights include a rematch between Sumudaerji and Alex Perez, and the debut of Canadian welterweight Cam Nelson against Ding Meng.
