LAS VEGAS – Song Yadong doesn’t expect to face issues with Rob Font’s boxing.
Yadong (20-7-1 MMA, 9-2-1 UFC) will head into enemy territory when he takes on Massachusetts native Font (20-6 MMA, 10-5 UFC) at UFC 292 on Aug. 19 from TD Garden in Boston.
Font is known to have some of the best boxing in the bantamweight division, which he’s used to take out the likes of Adrian Yanez and former title challenger Marlon Moraes in the first round. Yadong also has shown off his hands during his octagon tenure, most recently finishing Ricky Simon by fifth-round TKO in the UFC Fight Night 223 headliner in April.
