What was already a highly anticipated contest received one hell of a shot in the arm when Uncle Dana announced the winner of Brian Ortega and the Korean Zombie would receive a shot at Alexander Volkanovski’s title. Not that it needed anything else behind it as Ortega and Zombie have reputations for explosive finishes and exciting performances. Plus, there is personal animosity between the two that doesn’t appear to be manufactured for the purposes of building up their fight.
It isn’t out of the realm of possibility to say the co-main event could have title implications either.
