Henry Cejudo and Song Yadong Set to Headline UFC's Return to Seattle

The February 22 bout pits former two-division champion Cejudo against rising star Yadong in a pivotal bantamweight clash.

The UFC returns to Seattle for the first time in over a decade with a Fight Night headlined by Henry Cejudo vs. Song Yadong at Climate Pledge Arena.
Cejudo, a former Olympic gold medalist and two-division UFC champion, aims to break a two-fight losing streak since his comeback in 2023.
Song Yadong, known as 'The Kung Fu Kid,' seeks to bounce back from a loss to Petr Yan and solidify his standing in the bantamweight division.
