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

#2. He's a finisher

UFC Fight Night: Bermudez vs Korean Zombie

In his entire UFC stint, Chan Sung Jung has only used the judges' scorecards to secure a victory in one bout. 8 wins by submission and 6 by KO/TKO, Jung prefers the shorter days at the office.

Although he doesn't have much experience going the distance, he's shown that he's still a threat in the later rounds. The Dan Ige and Yair Rogriguez fights really highlight this, as Jung was rather successful in the fourth and fifth rounds of these fights.

Beyond the ability to finish at the highest level, this shows the tenacious mindset that 'The Korean Zombie' approaches his fights with. He believes in his striking and grappling, for they've served him well time and time again.

#1. Unpredictability

Of all the adjectives that form the legend that is 'The Korean Zombie', "Unpredictable" may be the one he'll need to lean on most in his bout against Alexander Volkanovski.

Although 'Zombie' already does a good job keeping his cards close to his chest in terms of his attacks, he'll need to mix things up much more in order to win the featherweight title. Flying knees, submission threats, quick counter shots -- these are things that will serve him well as he's fighting one of the most textbook champions in the UFC.

Chan Sung Jung has a large aresonal of attacks and the knockout power to boot. Although it's hard to speak on the champion's weaknesses, for he's undefeated in the UFC, he's taking on a task that he hasn't faced before in 'The Korean Zombie'.

The 33-year-old champion has a large skillset too, but his attacks won't be anything that 'Zombie' hasn't seen before. This isn't mutual, though. Volkanovski will have to be as aware as he's ever been when inside the octagon as the two close the curtain on UFC 273.
