HOUSTON – Casey Kenney is expecting a thrilling back-and-forth contest with Song Yadong . Kenney (16-3-1 MMA, 5-2 UFC) meets Yadong (16-5-1 MMA, 5-1-1 UFC) in the main card opener of UFC 265 on Saturday, where he’ll look to regain his momentum from his loss to former champion Dominick Cruz . The 30-year-old, who had a strong 2020, sees a lot of similarities between former opponent Nathaniel Wood and Yadong, where Kenney was able to outlast Wood to earn the “Fight of the Night” bonus. “If you’ve ever watched either of us fight, no words really need to be said,” Kenney told MMA Junkie at Wednesday’s UFC 265 media day.
