A welterweight division encounter has been added to UFC Fight Night Beijing according to Morono himself as Alex Morono is going to be in action against Kenan Song.
Morono (14-5-0-1NC) has won just one of his last four bouts under the UFC banner, with that lone win coming over Josh Burkman at UFC Fight Night Austin. Morono has seen four of his six bouts in the UFC go the distance and he won just two of those four encounters.
