Easily handles Ricky Simon
Song defeated Ricky Simon via TKO (punches) at 1:10 of Round 5 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was a massive response from Song on the heels of his TKO loss to Cory Sandhagen last September. Knowing full well he would have to slow down Simon's wrestling game in order to be successful in this one, Song stuffed 7-of-9 takedown attempts. He was blessed with an overwhelming speed and power edge over Simon on the feet, so once he was able to keep this fight standing, the result didn't appear to be in doubt. Song is an extremely technical striker with underrated power. He's also deceptively strong. A member of the UFC roster since November 2017, Song won't turn 26 years of age until early December. He may not be on the same level as guys such as Sandhagen and other top names at 135 pounds, but he's not far off. To add to his great day at the office, Song will also take home one of four $50,000 Performance of the Night bonuses awarded on the evening.
