After skipping a week this past weekend, UFC action resumes on Saturday when the Octagon touches down in China. This is part of the UFC’s continued expansion into the Chinese market and features a host of their homegrown talent throughout the card – many with highly impressive records
The main event features a strawweight championship fight between current titleholder Jessica Andrade and Weili Zhang. Both women are well-matched in terms of experience as well as physical stature. Jessica is on a four-fight win streak and has 7 wins by knockout and 7 by submission. Weili meanwhile, has a mammoth 19 fight win streak (some outside of UFC) with 9 wins by knockout and 7 by submission. This is sure to be a close battle – and could surprise many with a potential home town victory.
