Song Yadong sent the hometown crowd into absolute hysteria, securing a dramatic second-round submission victory over Deiveson Figueiredo in front of a packed arena. The opening round unfolded as a high-level chess match, with both bantamweights exchanging stinging combinations and measuring each other's explosive speed and power.
Figueiredo landed several hard counter shots, but Song responded with heavy calf kicks that visibly disrupted the former champion's rhythm and movement. Everything changed in the second frame as the tactical pressure from the Chinese star intensified.
Following a crisp leg kick combination from Song, an increasingly desperate Figueiredo lunged forward to execute a double-leg takedown. Anticipating the shot perfectly, "The Kung Fu Kid" locked in a textbook guillotine choke—the signature technique of his coach Urijah Faber and the Team Alpha Male stable.
Song clamped down on the submission and adjusted his weight, forcing a rapid, frantic tap from the Brazilian veteran to end the contest. In the co-featured bout of the evening, Alonzo Menifield silenced the crowd with a brutal first-round knockout over Zhang Mingyang, while heavyweights Sergei Pavlovich and promotional newcomer Kai Asakura also secured highlight-reel, opening-round finishes on a spectacular night of fights.
