Yadong Song made a big impression on his first trip to the Octagon after stepping up the plate on short notice.
The 19-year-old was the picture of confidence in his promotional debut as he wowed the crowd at the Mercedez Benz Arena in Shanghai, China, on Saturday before claiming a first-round submission win over Bharat Khandare.
The youngster showcased amazing skills before he blasted Khandare to the canvas with a piston-like right hand in the final minute of the first round. As the Indian looked to get back to his feet, he cranked on a front choke that forced him to tap out.
