Song Yadong Guillotines Figueiredo; Pavlovich TKOs Teixeira in 39 Seconds at UFC Macao

Song Yadong submitted Figueiredo with a guillotine choke late in the second round at UFC Macao, with the finish reflecting the Team Alpha Male guillotine system developed under Urijah Faber. Sergei Pavlovich stopped Teixeira in just 39 seconds, while Minyangwas knocked out by Meerschaert in the co-main event despite entering as a notable favorite. Asakura returned to bantamweight with a knockout of Smotherman, and a low blow from Su Mudaerji on Alex Perez led to a no-contest and Perez being taken to hospital. The card produced nine finishes across 13 bouts, seven of them in the first round, with Minyanga, Meerschaert, Asakura, and Yadong all earning post-fight bonuses.
