Overview
- The UFC stages Fight Night 277 at Galaxy Arena in Taipa, Macau on Saturday, May 30, with Song Yadong and Deiveson Figueiredo meeting in a scheduled five-round main event.
- Song arrives in visible fight-week form and is a heavy betting favorite, with odds and pundits projecting him as the more likely winner at his first China headliner since 2018.
- Figueiredo has split his camp between Fighting Nerds and Pitbull Brothers, arrived in Macau early with family, and publicly predicted a fourth-round submission as his path to victory.
- The main card features several notable bouts and regional prospects, and the event coincides with Road to UFC tournaments that the promotion is using to spotlight Asian talent.
- Paramount+ will carry the event in the United States while UK viewers use TNT Sports via HBO Max and prelims stream on UFC Fight Pass, and the result will affect bantamweight pecking order with Song ranked No. 5 and Figueiredo No. 7.
