With just over one billion residents, China is a market that the UFC has been attempting to break into for the last few years. A season of TUF failed to produce any marketable fighters and now the promotion is hungry to find the next big Chinese thing. How hungry? They have six debuting Chinese fighters for the hometown crowd. The first three include a rare undefeated heavyweight, a fighter who earned 15 minutes of fame with a WWE finish, and a young woman who is game for good ole fashion face-punch party.

Who is Yaozong Hu?

23-year-old Chinese big man “Bad Boy” Yaozong Hu will step in on less than a weeks notice for James Mulheron who is the latest victim of USADA.
