UFC Singapore Results: Max Holloway finishes The Korean Zombie (Video)
We have you covered for all of today’s UFC Singapore results, including the main event between Max Holloway and The Korean Zombie.
Holloway (24-7 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since scoring a unanimous decision win over Arnold Allen (19-2 MMA) this past April. That victory got ‘Blessed‘ back in the win column, as he had previously suffered a third loss to Alex Volkanovski at UFC 276.
Meanwhile, Chan Sung Jung, aka ‘The Korean Zombie’, will be looking to get back in the win column after losing to Alexander Volkanovski (26-2 MMA) in his last Octagon appearance at UFC 273. Prior to that setback, ‘TKZ’ had earned a unanimous decision victory over Dan Ige in June of 2021.
