Former bantamweight champion Petr Yan will return to motion reverse ex-flyweight titleholder Deiveson Figueiredo in a 135-pound showdown for the upcoming UFC Macau blended martial arts (MMA) occasion, not too long ago made official for Sat., Nov. 23, 2024 at Galaxy Enviornment in Macau, China.
Leo Guimaraes first reported the reserving on Twitter.
Yan (17-5) snapped a three-fight dropping streak by outpointing Yadong Tune on the UFC 299 pay-per-view (PPV) occasion again in March. Figueiredo (24-3-1), ranked two spots under “No Mercy” at No. 5, has captured three in a row, together with final month’s resolution victory over Marlon Vera at UFC Abu Dhabi.
