Brian Ortega and The Korean Zombie in UFC
The Korean Zombie is coming into this fight on the back of quite the win. The end to 2018 had not been quite perfect for Chan Sung Jung, as at UFC Denver, he was unable to pick up the win in the headliner of the night against Yair Rodriguez.
His win in June against Renato Moicano made things slightly better, but now he is about to fight yet another top name in the featherweight division of the UFC, as he faces Brian Ortega.
For his part, Brian Ortega has had quite the year as well. Having fought only once in the last 12 months, Ortega's last fight did not end too well. Last year in December, he faced Max Holloway in a one-on-one fight where he lost for the first time in his career. More than a year later, this would be his return fight, so he will want to make an emphatic statement.
