Yan went up against former flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo in a five-round clash. The bout headlined the event which took place on Nov. 23 at the Galaxy Arena in Macau, China.

The fight was an exciting affair where both men had moments of success. But it was 'No Mercy' who managed to outclass his opponent for the majority of the fight. The contest lasted all five rounds and ended in a dominant unanimous decision victory for the Russian. All three judges scored the fight 50-45 in favor of Yan.

With the victory, 'No Mercy' broke the Brazilian's three-fight win streak in the promotion. Yan was recently going through a rough patch in the UFC. Prior to UFC Macau, the 31-year-old had managed to win just one out of his last four bouts.

Now, with back-to-back victories over Song Yadong and Figueiredo, Yan has started to gain momentum. If he continues to stack up wins, he might soon see himself fighting for the UFC belt again.
