Song Yadong
Urijah Faber’s protégé Song Yadong moved from China to Team Alpha Male. Training with Cody Garbrandt, Andre Fili, Cub Swanson, Joseph Benavidez, Lance Palmer, Chad Mendes. Urijah Faber speaks highly of Song Yadong as a future Champion.
“Before training with Urijah,” explained Song Yadong, he was “more of a striker in MMA.” Which meant he “didn’t grapple much, didn’t wrestle much.” Now, he’s learning different techniques, strategies, and “a different approach in the fight from Urijah.”
