2. ‘Korean Zombie’ delivers … again
Jung provided yet another reminder why he’s arguably the most consistently exciting fighter in the sport when he stopped octagon legend Edgar faster than anyone before him with a heavy TKO in the opening round.
“The Korean Zombie” has now had eight UFC fights, and with it has cashed eight fight-night bonuses. That’s a streak unlike anyone in the sport’s history (Justin Gaethje is right on his tail), and if nothing else, Jung is reliable to put on a memorable fight no matter whom he is pitted against.
It’s always an exhilarating moment when Jung enters the cage, and he’s become nothing short of must-see TV. Beating Edgar is a tough task in and of itself, but to do it in a spectacular fashion like Jung accomplished, is just one reason he’s so special.
