On August 25, 2026, Yan Xiaonan said she was putting title talk aside ahead of her fight with Denise Gomes at UFC Shanghai in Shanghai.
The No. 4-ranked strawweight, returning after more than a year away, said she felt more experienced and mature.
She described her return home as exciting rather than pressurised, and teammate Song Yadong is also fighting on the card.
