SINGAPORE – Japanese bantamweight Shunichi Shimizu has one goal in mind for his UFC debut: finish his opponent. Of course, the never-leave-it-in-the-hands-of-the-judges mantra tends to earn a special place in the heart of a fighter who’s had no fewer than 10 draws in his professional career. “I don’t want to leave it to the judges,” Shimizu told MMAjunkie through a translator. “I will either finish my opponent by knockout or submission.” The 28-year-old Shimizu (28-8-10 MMA, 0-0 UFC) meets South Korean bantamweight Kyung Ho Kang (11-7 MMA, 0-1 UFC) in the opening main-card bout of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 34 event, which takes place at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre
