Statistically, Song Yadong’s profile suggests a primarily striking-led approach. He is credited with 4.42 significant strikes landed per minute (SLpM) while absorbing 3.94 per minute (SApM), indicating regular exchanges rather than low-contact fights. His listed significant-strike defense is 55%, which points to a mid-range ability to avoid or mitigate incoming volume. On the wrestling side, he is credited with 0.78 takedowns per 15 minutes and a 73% takedown defense rate. That combination implies he is not dependent on takedowns as a primary scoring source, but he has some ability to stay upright and reset positions when opponents shoot. His submission average is listed at 0.1 per 15 minutes, which suggests submissions are not a frequent output over time, though the most recent bout in the log is a submission win in round 2—an example that he can still finish on the ground when opportunities appear. In terms of outcomes, the provided fight list shows a mix of decisions and finishes, including multiple KO/TKO wins and several three- and five-round decisions. Recent results are mixed but steady: a submission win (2026-05-30), a unanimous-decision loss (2026-01-24), and a unanimous-decision win (2025-02-22). Any deeper read on tactical preferences beyond these statistics is limited by the snapshot data.
