UFC Fight Night 165 Results: Edgar vs. ‘The Korean Zombie’
Proving himself to be the bigger and stronger man, Chan Sung Jung continued his impressive return to the featherweight division as ‘The Korean Zombie’ steamrolled Frankie Edgar inside of the first round.
Landing a stinging left early in the fight, Jung would swarm Edgar from then on out as a barrage of ground and pound followed with Jung firmly positioned in back mount.
Somehow managing to return to his feet after multiple warnings that the fight would be stopped by referee Marc Goddard, Edgar’s escape from Jung’s attacks were shortlived as another combination on the feet ensured a dominant victory for the South Korean hero.
