The headlining bout features a spectacular bantamweight showdown between China’s own Song Yadong and the former two-time UFC Flyweight Champion, Deiveson Figueiredo.
Song Yadong, known for his explosive power and crisp striking, will have the definitive home-field advantage. Standing across from him is Figueiredo, a dangerous veteran who has seamlessly carried his devastating power and elite grappling up to the 135-pound division. With both fighters hovering near the top of the division, the winner of this five-round battle will position themselves at the doorstep of a bantamweight world title shot.
Building a fight card in the modern MMA landscape is rarely a smooth process, and UFC Fight Night 277 has seen its fair share of shake-ups:
Welterweight Shifting: Fan-favorite striker Muslim Salikhov was originally slated to fight Jake Matthews. Following Salikhov's withdrawal for undisclosed reasons, promotional veteran Carlston Harris stepped up, offering Matthews a completely different stylistic puzzle to solve.
Featherweight Newcomer: Road to UFC Season 3 featherweight winner Zhu Kangjie was initially matched with Ramon Taveras. After Taveras was forced out, promotional newcomer Rodrigo Vera accepted the call to make his UFC debut on major notice.
Weight Class Switch: A flyweight bout between Road to UFC Season 2 winner Rei Tsuruya and Jesús Santos Aguilar was derailed when Aguilar suffered an injury. Luis Gurule stepped in to save the spot, but due to the short notice, the matchup has been shifted up to a bantamweight contest.
Rescheduled Bout: A women's strawweight fight between Shi Ming and Puja Tomar was pulled from this card entirely, reassigned instead to serve as the featured bout for the Road to UFC Season 5 opening round a day earlier.
The night features an exceptional mix of explosive heavy hitters and rising Asian prospects. Notable matchups include heavyweight juggernaut Sergei Pavlovich taking on Tallison Teixeira, and a highly anticipated bantamweight bout featuring Japanese star Kai Asakura against Cameron Smotherman.
