A light heavyweight division attraction has been added to UFC Fight Night Beijing according to Farah Hannoun as Rashad Coulter faces Hu Yaozong.
Coutuer (8-4-0) is currently winless under the UFC banner, having dropped bouts to the trio of Chase Sherman, Tai Tuivasa and Chris De La Rocha. Coulter hasn’t won a bout in almost two years, with that last victory coming over Larry Hopkins at Legacy Fighting Alliance 1. Coulter has competed a total of twelve times as a professional MMA fighter and none of his bouts have gone the distance.
Yaozong (3-1-0) is also winless thus far in UFC competition, having dropped a bout to Cyril Asker via second round submission at UFC Fight Night Shanghai. Yaozong is a veteran of the Chinese MMA Super League promotion, where he defeated the duo of Gele Teri and Le Er Da Bao. Yaozong also returns to action for the first time in almost a year, as his last fight took place in November of 2017.
UFC Fight Night Beijing takes place on Saturday, November 24 from the Cadillac Arena in Beijing, China with Curtis Blaydes and Francis Ngannou headlining. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, while broadcast plans have yet to be announced.
