The lineup has come together for the mixed martial arts leader’s return to China for a UFC Fight Night card inside Macau’s Galaxy Arena.

November 23 will see Octagon action take place in Macau for the first time in over a decade. And the promotion is set to bring plenty of notable names along with it to the Chinese region.

That includes for the main event, which was recently revealed to pit ex-bantamweight champion Petr Yan against former two-time flyweight kingpin Deiveson Figueiredo in a crucial clash at 135 pounds.

And while confirming that on social media, the UFC announced a number of other intriguing matchups. Of note is the next fight for China’s own Yan Xiaonan, as well as charging light heavyweight contender Carlos Ulberg.

Seven months on from her failed title challenge against Zhang Weili (18-4, 1 NC) at UFC 300, Xiaonan will look to bounce back in front of her home fans against the #9-ranked Tabatha Ricci (11-2). “Baby Shark” has won two straight, most recently outpointing Angela Hill last month.

Ulberg (10-1), meanwhile, will be making his return after having an injury take away his chance of competing at International Fight Week this past June, where he had matchups with both Jamahal Hill and Anthony Smith fall through.

He’ll have the chance to consolidate his spot inside the light heavyweight top 10 when he takes on former title challenger and current #6-ranked contender Volkan Oezdemir (20-7) in Macau.

Also of note is the addition of Wang Cong (6-0), a women’s flyweight prospect who made a thunderous UFC debut at the Apex in August. After brutally knocking out Victoria Leonardo, “The Joker” will compete on home soil in her sophomore Octagon appearance against Gabriella Fernandes (9-3).

With these additions, the current fights expected to take place at the UFC Fight Night event in Macau on Nov. 23 are as follows:

Petr Yan vs. Deiveson Figueiredo (bantamweight main event)
Yan Xiaonan vs. Tabatha Ricci (women’s strawweight)
Volkan Oezdemir vs. Carlos Ulberg (light heavyweight)
Wang Cong vs. Gabriella Fernandes (women’s flyweight)
Song Kenan vs. Muslim Salikhov (welterweight)
Zhang Mingyang vs. Ozzy Diaz (light heavyweight)
Nyamjargal Tumendemberel vs. Carlos Hernandez (flyweight)
Lone’er Kavanagh vs. Jose Ochoa (flyweight)
Kangjie Zhu vs. Bin Xie (Road to UFC featherweight final)
SuYoung You vs. Jieleyisi Baergeng (Road to UFC bantamweight final)
Kiru Singh Sahota vs. DongHun Choi (Road to UFC flyweight final)
Xiaocan Feng vs. Ming Shi (Road to UFC women’s strawweight final)
