China's Li Jingliang was the talk of the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Saturday night as the MMA promotion made its long-awaited Asian return in Singapore.
Widely seen as China's best mixed martial arts prospect, Li took down Guam's Frank Camacho in a three-round welterweight match, exhausting his opponent and winning by unanimous decision.
"My opponent surprised me with his speed and strength. He punched very hard. Because of this, I changed my game plan for the second round to move more and land more low leg kicks," said Li, who has a 3-2 record in UFC.
