In the UFC Macau co-main event, No. 2-ranked women’s strawweight contender Xiaonan Yan goes head-to-head with No. 10-ranked “Baby Shark” Tabatha Ricci. “Fury” is looking to rebound from her unanimous decision loss to Zhang Weili at UFC 300 while Ricci will be gunning for her third straight win.
UFC Macau will also feature the light heavyweight slugfest pitting Volkan Oezdemir against Carlos Ulberg. Elsewhere on the card, undefeated flyweight phenom Wang Cong returns to face battle-tested Brazilian Gabriel Fernandes, not long after Song Kenan and Muslin Salikhov hook ‘em up at 170 pounds.
Expect the finalized UFC Macau fight card to drop in a couple of days.
