5 reasons why 'The Korean Zombie' could upset Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 273

#4. Relentless pressure

UFC Fight Night: Ortega v The Korean Zombie

He's not called 'The Korean Zombie' for nothing. Winning or losing, down or up, Jung will keep the pressure on until the fight is over with. Although Volkanovski has quite the gas tank, it'll be interesting to see if he can hold up with his opponent constantly marching forward after eating his best shots.

Assuming this fight makes it into the championship rounds, if 'Zombie' can apply the pressure early and often, then it'll make things very interesting, seeing as the Australian fighter is used to pushing the pace.

Even if the champion is able to dictate his pace, he'll have to deal with a fighter that won't take a backstep regardless of the power before him. This will both be discouraging and exhausting.

#3. He's a unique challenge in the UFC

UFC Fight Night: Bermudez vs Korean Zombie

Alexander Volkanovski has fought against all sorts of styles in his UFC run thus far. Chad Mendes posed a threat with his powerful striking, Jose Aldo was a challenge for how well-rounded he is, and Brian Ortega offered his jiu jitsu as his prominent threat.

What 'The Korean Zombie' brings to the table is awkward rhythm and precise strikes. Jung can at times stand almost stationary, but he's able to let his power fly and find the target very quickly. Previous opponents may have fought in patterns that Volkanovski was able to read -- this won't be the case with the 35-year-old.

With his shots coming from almost random and unique angles, it'll be hard to read and predict Jung. Not textbook, but efficient, 'Zombie' could connect with the champion's chin and that's all it takes, especially with the power that the contender possesses.

The preparation must even be challenging, as it's rare to find anyone to replicate Jung's style of fighting. His unique style has gotten him caught in the past, but it could pay in dividends if he's able to land that finalizing blow in his UFC 273 bout.
