I\u2019ve faced the best, carried the responsibility of being a world champion, and embraced every challenge that came with it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jingnan has only competed once across the last three years, a unanimous decision victory over Meng Bo as part of the ONE Championship: \u201cONE Friday Fights 100\u201d card roughly one year back. While Jingnan is 19-2 with double-digit knockout victories, she also turned 38 back in January.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">\u201cNow, I\u2019m ready for the next phase,\u201d Jingnan added. \u201cI have officially signed with UFC. This decision wasn\u2019t made lightly. It\u2019s a calculated step forward, an opportunity to compete on the biggest stage in the sport and continue building my legacy as one of the best Chinese MMA fighters in the world. My debut will take place on May 30 in Macau, against a top 14 opponent. To everyone who has supported me on this journey, your trust and loyalty mean everything. I carry that with me into this new chapter. New stage. Same mindset.
