UFC Fight Night: Yan vs. Figueiredo (also known as UFC Fight Night 248 and UFC on ESPN+ 106) was a mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that took place on November 23, 2024, at the Galaxy Arena in Macau, SAR, China.[2]

Background

[edit]

The event marked the promotion's fourth visit to Macau and first since UFC Fight Night: Bisping vs. Le in August 2014.[2]

A bantamweight bout between former UFC Bantamweight Champion Petr Yan and former two-time UFC Flyweight Champion Deiveson Figueiredo headlined the event.[3]

The four finals of the Road to UFC Season 3 took place at this event.[4] However, the featherweight final between Xie Bin and Zhu Kangjie was postponed as a result of Zhu being injured.[5]
