#4. UFC bantamweight rising star Song Yadong
Song 'The Kung Fu Monkey' Yadong debuted in the UFC in 2017 and has been on a tear in their bantamweight division. The Chinese fighter has aligned himself with the world-famous Team Alpha Male in California and has compiled a 7-1-1 record in the promotion since.
His last performance was a headkick TKO over Julio Arce back in November 2021. His combination of power and aggression puts him above most 135-pound fighters in the world.
At the moment, Song is ranked No.14 in the UFC bantamweight class and is looking good so far, riding back-to-back wins. We wouldn't be surprised if we see 'The Kung Fu Monkey' break through into the top 10 some time this year.
#3. Former UFC standout and current ONE Championship lightweight Zhang Lipeng
Winner of The Ultimate Fighter: China, Zhang 'The Warrior' Lipeng has been around the game for quite some time now. Having already fought 45 times in his career thus far, the 31-year old former UFC prospect is still very much active today.
His last performance was at ONE: Only The Brave, where he absolutely starched Ruslan Emilbek Uulu with a 3-2 combination from hell:
After leaving the UFC in 2015, Zhang went on an epic 16-fight winning streak in Chinese organization Kunlun Fight MMA. His legendary streak won him both their lightweight and welterweight MMA titles.
Now that he is signed with leading Asian MMA organization ONE Championship, Zhang is primed to make an impact on the world stage yet again. Expect him to make headlines in the months and years to come.
