CGTN Sports Talk host Hu Zhicheng is joined by senior sports editor Josh McNally to scrutinize the high-flying Yan Xiaonan, who earned a record sixth straight win in the UFC strawweight division after defeating former world title contender Claudia Gadelha by unanimous decision.
The impressive victory moved Yan to a top 5 ranking, and closer to a title shot against reigning champion Zhang Weili. How far away is a potential historic 'Chinese Derby'? And which of the two female Chinese fighters will come out on top?
