UFC Fight Night: Song vs. Figueiredo (also known as UFC Fight Night 277) was a mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that took place on May 30, 2026, at the Galaxy Arena in Macau SAR, China.[2]

Background

[edit]

The event marked the promotion's fifth visit to Macau and first since UFC Fight Night: Yan vs. Figueiredo in November 2024.[2]

A bantamweight bout between Song Yadong and former two-time UFC Flyweight Champion Deiveson Figueiredo headlined the event.[3]

A women's strawweight bout between Road to UFC Season 3 women's strawweight winner Shi Ming and Puja Tomar was originally scheduled at this event.[4] However, the pairing was pulled in order to serve as the featured bout of the Road to UFC Season 5 opening round event a day earlier.[5]

A featherweight bout between Road to UFC Season 3 featherweight winner Zhu Kangjie and Ramon Taveras was scheduled for the event, but Taveras withdrew for undisclosed reasons and was replaced by promotional newcomer Rodrigo Vera.[6]

A flyweight bout between Road to UFC Season 2 flyweight winner Rei Tsuruya and Jesús Santos Aguilar was scheduled for the event, but Aguilar withdrew due to an injury and was replaced by Luis Gurule, shifting the pairing to a bantamweight contest.[7]

A welterweight bout between Muslim Salikhov and Jake Matthews was scheduled for the event.[8] However, Salikhov withdrew for undisclosed reasons and was replaced by Carlston Harris.[9]
