Song aims knockout of O'Malley

    Song Yadong is set to meet Sean O'Malley in the co-main event at UFC 324 and says he intends to finish the fight by knockout.

    He calls the bout a turning point for his career and says a routine victory may not be enough to move toward a title shot, reportedly increasing the pressure to produce a decisive result.

    With other high-profile fights on the same card, Song says he needs a standout performance to separate himself from the rest of the division.

    The build included an insensitive faceoff stunt by O'Malley involving a medical mask, which drew backlash and an apology, according to reports.

    Song says he is focused on the contest itself and is not letting the pre-fight controversy distract him as fight night approaches.
