MAKHACHKALA, July 2 – RIA "Dagestan". Dagestani UFC fighter Umar Nurmagomedov is scheduled to face Chinese athlete Song Yadong in the main event of a UFC tournament in Shanghai on August 29.
Initially, Nurmagomedov was slated to fight Mexican David Martinez at a July event in Abu Dhabi, but UFC matchmakers later altered the plans.
The day prior, former UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov announced on social media that Umar would headline a five-round bout, though he kept the opponent's identity a secret at the time. The 30-year-old Umar enters the octagon with a professional MMA record of 20 wins and one loss, while his 28-year-old opponent Song Yadong holds a record of 23 wins, 9 losses, one draw and one no contest.
