Chinese UFC fighter Song Yadong shared his expectations for his upcoming fight against American Henry Cejudo in the main event of UFC Fight Night 252.
Song Yadong for MMAJunkie
He’s a very good wrestler, he’s an Olympic-level wrestling skilled. I believe he can take me down, but I don’t think he can hold me down. I know I can handle it. I believe in my ground skills. I will knock him out in the early rounds or beat him by decision, but I will win the fight. I believe in myself.
Cejudo last stepped into the octagon in February 2024 at UFC 298, where he lost to Merab Dvalishvili by unanimous decision. He holds a record of 16 wins and four losses.
Yadong's last fight was in March 2024 at UFC 299, where he lost to Petr Yan by unanimous decision. His career record stands at 21 wins, eight losses, and one draw, with one fight declared a no contest.
