The highly-anticipated featherweight fight between Brian Ortega and Chan Sung Jung has been rebooked to headline a UFC Fight Night on October 17.
Milenio first reported the news. Ortega and Jung were supposed to headline a Fight Night in South Korea last December, but Ortega pulled out of the fight with a knee injury.
Ortega (14-1, 1NC) suffered the first loss of his MMA career in his last fight against Max Holloway in December 2018. “T-City” had been on an impressive run of form before the loss that led to him getting a shot at the UFC featherweight title, picking up stoppage wins against former champion Frankie Edgar and Cub Swanson.
