UFC Shanghai Results: Song Stops Nurmagomedov in Round Two

UFC Shanghai took place on August 29, 2026. Song Yadong stopped Umar Nurmagomedov by knockout at 1:48 of the second round in the main event, according to UFC’s official result.

Song ended the main event

The knockout came in round two and ended a bout between ranked bantamweights. UFC’s event report records the time as 1:48, giving the result a clear method and timestamp rather than a generic finish description.

The card also included stoppage wins for Denise Gomes, Kai Asakura, Liu Ce and Bilal Hasan. Other bouts reached the judges, making the event a mix of early finishes and decisions.

UFC’s results page lists the entire event, including the individual methods and times. That primary record is important for separating the main-event knockout from the other finishes on the undercard.

The result gave Song a major win in front of a home-region audience, but the bout alone does not confirm a title shot or next opponent. Those developments would require a later UFC announcement.

The undercard featured a first-round finish by Francesco Nuzzi, Rei Tsuruya’s rear-naked choke submission and Denise Gomes’s TKO win. UFC’s event report lists these separately from Song’s second-round main-event knockout.

UFC Shanghai also featured multiple finishes, but the event’s headline result remains Song’s recorded second-round knockout of Nurmagomedov.
