Insider info
vs Zhu Kangjie lean UFC Fight Night Song vs Figueiredo Full Card Preview & Predictions · May 26, 2026
gives a real mechanism (Thai clinch, output) but closes by saying either man has a real path and he could be swayed
A well-rounded forward-pressure striker whose signature weapon is the Thai clinch, where his knees are described as very hard to deal with. He throws combinations then resets into a shell, which the analyst says suits this particular matchup. His takedowns come off the back of his striking and he also ducks under return fire into a shot.
