MELBOURNE, Australia – Ricky Simon ’s timeline to become a top-ranked UFC bantamweight is going exactly as planned. Now he just needs to deliver in the octagon at UFC 234. In just his third UFC appearance, Simon (14-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) gets a fight with an established member of the 135-pound division in Rani Yahya (26-9 MMA, 11-3 UFC), who brings a three-fight winning streak into Saturday’s event. Simon, 26, a former LFA champion, has a strong belief in his ability to hold the title. And he said his performance will convince others to share that perspective, as well
