Alexander Volkanovski vs The Korean Zombie | UFC 273 Main Event
Not to be rude, but this isn’t close to an equal matchup.
Yes, I’ve heard it’s tough to kill a zombie. However, Alexander Volkanovski waited until Brian Ortega’s arms got tired from choking him last fight, to the point that Ortega heard him gurgle. So, we may have two zombies in the UFC 273 main event, but one is a significantly better fighter.
Volkanovski has not lost a fight since 2013, winning 20 in a row, while The Korean Zombie has won three of his past four. The two have some past beef. So, while this is not the matchup the UFC initially wanted, the champ still says this fight “is personal.”
