With Song Yadong claiming a massive victory in front of his home crowd, UFC’s Fight Night in Shanghai has come to a spectacular end. While the event will be remembered for Umar Nurmagomedov suffering his second career loss and his first knockout, the card at Oriental Sports Center may also be remembered for the multiple graphics errors that emerged throughout the evening.

Just last month, Dana White slammed his production team for mistakenly denoting boxing champion Shakur Stevenson as OKC NBA player Jalen Williams on the on-screen graphics. Now, it’s possible the team will once again face the UFC CEO’s wrath as the promotion wraps up its UFC Shanghai event.

“Beijing, Poland,” read MMA content creator DovySimu’s post on X.

Those comments stemmed from the location shown as the city Xiaonan Yan was fighting out of. Fighting in the co-main event, the Chinese fighter faced the Brazilian Denise Gomes. The detail was both factually and geographically incorrect.

While Beijing is the capital of China, Yan, who was born in Shenyang, a city in Liaoning province, fights out of Sacramento, in California, United States. But that was just one case. As it eventually turned out, users pointed to many such gaffes, including Hunan, another province in China, being shown as a part of Brazil, and Japan’s capital, Tokyo, being placed in Florida.

The best was reserved for the host city itself. Shanghai was reportedly listed as being in Texas.

Slamming his production team for the Stevenson mistake, White had said, “I mean, it’s just absolutely crazy. We are the absolute worst to ever do the celebrity thing. When we put celebrities up, we are the worst. I just had this f-king debate in the back with my guys while I was screaming at everybody back there, and they said, ‘No, soccer’s worse. ‘Soccer shows the people, and they don’t put up any graphics. ‘Oh no. We put up f-king graphics and put the wrong guy’s name on it! We win. We’re the worst EVER to f-king do it.”

With so many users pointing out the errors made tonight, it appears the production is going to hear from White again.

Here’s how some of the reactions looked on social media.

Fans unleash on Dana White as UFC production errors raise eyebrows

“Niteroi, Australia, and Beijing, Poland,” a user added, while another pointed out a graphics error, saying, “They also double-layered Sean Woodson in the Tale of the Tape. Graphics department is laaaacking.”

Sharing those sentiments, another fan mocked the UFC, writing, “Amazing graphics, UFC.”

Suggesting that White and the UFC top brass take a strong issue with the production team’s errors this time, a user stated, “They have been getting the countries wrong. Someone is getting fired.”

Notably, the UFC has a rule that restricts the display of national flags at events. The move was introduced to mitigate any tension related to international relations between countries whose fighters compete on its cards. If that is the case, the production team should take extra care when highlighting places and countries, since such errors may frustrate fighters, teams, and fans.

Calling out Dana White directly, one wrote, “@danawhite the graphics on UFC Fight Night Shanghai are so wrong on Yan’s introduction; it’s showing Beijing and Poland. Where the hell is that?”

Offering a take that has become increasingly familiar, one fan said, “I reckon they’re using AI; they were f-ked last week too.”

A few months ago, Dana White reportedly admitted that his team was using artificial intelligence for its content. That usage comes at a time when reliance on human labor is being reduced, while the margin for error remains a concern.

But that argument does not change the fact that AI is equally susceptible to making mistakes and that even after it generates something or creates a graphic, it should be checked by a human to verify that it’s correct and accurate.

Many fans still recall the incident during UFC 306 when a mix-up resulted in boxing legend Terence Crawford being shown as rapper Kendrick Lamar.

Given that history and the fact that UFC is trying to expand its global footprint and hold events in places it has never been before, it becomes all the more important for the promotion to understand that while most people come to watch the fights, issues such as incorrectly labeled locations and graphics can become a sore point.

Those errors could later be used to criticize the UFC as word of mouth spreads.
