Before the “Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung showed fans once again that he’s the new Diego Sanchez, the UFC’s third show on FUEL TV was floundering. Filled mostly with unfamiliar names and tepid action, the show seemed like a complete bust, especially after former The Ultimate Fighter winner Amir Sadollah ground the action to a halt with an abysmal co-main event.
Funny how a thrilling final tilt can change all of that in the blink of an eye.
Jung showed diverse technique, a complete inability to protect himself from damage, and the mental fortitude to not give a damn about what happens to his body— all the hallmarks of a great action fighter.
Jung wasn’t the only one to wow the crowd. There were entertaining moments throughout. Here are five of the best.
