Max Holloway was an early pitch for MMA observers who watched The Korean Zombie outwork Dan Ige, and from the sound of it, the UFC Vegas 29 main event winner welcomes that fight, too.
Zombie, also known as Chan Sung Jung, issued one of his clearest challenges to date when he was asked about his place in the UFC featherweight division.
“Max, he doesn’t have punching power, but I have punching power,” Jung said in English, his coach and translator Eddie Cha giving him the lane to call his shot.
Jung was back in the win column and remains in the title picture after a setback against Brian Ortega this past October.
