Tonight’s UFC Fight Night looks to inject some ferocious Chinese talent into the light heavyweight division. Prolific finisher Mingyang Zhang has ended all 19 of his wins inside the first round, and standing in the way of a top spot in the 205 division is perennial contender Johnny Walker.
We’re also privy to a five-round co-main event between Brian Ortega and former bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling.
MMA Knockout will be here, live at 3 AM ET for results and highlights throughout the entire event.
Our co-main event between Brian Ortega and Aljamain Sterling was nearly cancelled on Thursday, with rumors of Ortega fainting. Further reports prove that the fight will continue, but instead of fighting at featherweight (145), they will fight at lightweight (155).
Brian Ortega vs. Aljamain Sterling will now be contested at lightweight, per UFC officials. Both made weight at 153 pounds #UFCShanghai
