5 best performances of Chan Sung Jung in the UFC

#2. Frankie Edgar

UFC 200: Edgar faces Aldo for the featherweight title

UFC legend and fan-favorite, Frankie Edgar, looked to spoil the homecoming performance of Chan Sung Jung. 'The Korean Zombie', however, wasn't going to let anything or anyone ruin the night for him.

Jung shut out any opportunity that 'The Answer' could've possibly had for a successful performance. Early on, Jung's power had Edgar hurt, which led to a grappling sequence that favored the Korean. The fight was close to over multiple times, but Edgar managed to escape after what seemed to be enough time for him to clear the cob webs.

Unbothered, Jung got back to work and landed another shot to hurt his opponent, prompting the referee's intervening in this main event fight. Jung became the second person to stop 'The Answer' who has fought a laundry list of heavy-hitters and submission specialists.

#1. Dustin Poirier

UFC 236: Holloway vs. Poirier 2

'The Diamond' really found his home in the UFC's lightweight division. Although he's come into his own after moving up a weightclass, he was still a top fighter at the 145 lb mark. A four-fight win streak in the UFC and most recently defeating Max Holloway, Poirier was slated against 'The Korean Zombie'.

This would not only be the first UFC loss for the fighter from Luisiana, but the most outclassed he's ever looked inside the octagon. Jung showed Poirier his unorthodox striking style, switching from short shots in the pocket to flying knees seamlessly.

The Korean's power was also quite evident as 'The Diamond' was trepedatious in his approach as the fight moved forward. The grappling favored Jung severely as he was able to be steps ahead in any scramble the fight offered. Poirier favored the D'Arce choke early on in his career, but was on the receiving end of it as Jung used it to put him to sleep in the fourth round of their 2012 meeting.
