Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 24. August 2026 · Predicted for 29. August 2026 · Based on: Ongoing Event

Probability

76%

In the bantamweight main event of UFC Fight Night Shanghai, unbeaten Umar Nurmagomedov (18-0, RUS) faces Chinese hometown favorite Song Yadong (22-7-1, CHN). Polymarket prices an 80% probability of Nurmagomedov's victory. Nurmagomedov has a dominant wrestling base (13 of 18 wins by finish) and most recently stopped Cory Sandhagen in round one. Song Yadong is a strong striker fighting at home but has shown vulnerabilities against elite grapplers. Main risk: Nurmagomedov weight-cut issues or a surprise decision if Song dominates on the feet.

Data basis for this prediction

Polymarket UFC Fight Night: Nurmagomedov 80% vs. Song Yadong 21% (Stand 24.08.2026)
UFC Fight Night Shanghai offizielles Main Event: UFC.com (Aug 2026)
