News about Zhang Weili

Zhang Weili twice came within seconds of finishing Yan Xiaonan as she produced a dominant performance to retain her women's strawweight title at UFC 300. Saturday's co-main event marked the first time two Chinese fighters had competed for a title in promotional history and the pair produced a showdown packed with drama at the T-Mobile Arena.  Just minutes after Max Holloway's last-second KO of Justin Gaethje, Zhang looked to have secured a buzzer-beater of her own as she cinched in a rear-naked choke in the final seconds of round one.

After Dana White's announcement on social media last night, UFC 300 fans have been left out at UFC 300. White dropped the bombshell news for the monumental event in the aftermath of UFC 298, which saw Ilia Topuria surprise Alexander Volkanovski to win the Featherweight Championship in California. Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill will compete in the main event of UFC 300 in Las Vegas on September 13th for Pereira's Light Heavyweight Championship. A number of other fights have also been announced, with Zhang Weili expected to defend her women's strawweight title against Yan Xiaonan and Max Holloway, but it isn't a card that hasn't gone well on social media. Fans have expressed their dissatisfaction with UFC 300's main event, with others appearing to be overwhelmed by what they see as one of the largest events in the promotion's history.

On Thursday, Dana White announced the first title match for UFC 300, revealing that Chinese fighters Weili Zhang and Yan Xiaonan would meet head-to-head at the tournament. Fans are eager that UFC 300 will be worthy of its historic number, being one of the largest events to be hosted by the organization, which includes many national championships. Despite that, some took to social media to express their dissatisfaction with the news, claiming they were told to wait for an announcement on a fight they had already predicted taking place.

UFC 292 will'go down the drain' without him, according to Ian Garry, who claims he is carrying this weekend's card. The undefeated Irishman, one of the sport's top rising stars, says the Boston event would have no appeal without his clash with Neil Magny. In the main event, Aljamain Sterling defends his bantamweight crown, while Zhang Weili faces Amanda Lemos for the women's strawweight belt. Garry says he is the greatest on the card. I believe I am carrying this 292 card on my back, and that if it wasn't for me, it would go down the drain.'
