The UFC’s fall schedule features multiple, can’t miss fights, and one of those is the upcoming scrap between Brian Ortega and Chan Sung Jung.

If you’re a hardcore fan, you’re interest in the fight likely won’t change on account of a poster. But, if you’re new to the game, well, the poster below should peak your interest.

Ortega vs. “The Korean Zombie”

The featherweight contenders are set to fight in the main event of UFC Fight Island 6, which is taking place on October 17th.

It’s a compelling bout, not only because of what’s on the line rankings wise, but because of each man’s abilities. Both Ortega and “The Korean Zombie” are aggressive fighters, and both are dangerous, documented finishers.

Jung (16-5) will be fighting for the first time since December, when he quickly put away former lightweight champ, Frankie Edgar.

Ortega (14-1) hasn’t fought since December, 2018, when he incurred his first loss at the hands of now former champ, Max Holloway.

Jung and Ortega were originally scheduled to fight last December, but Ortega was forced out with a knee injury.
