Brian Ortega Takes on the Featherweight Division at UFC 303
The highly anticipated UFC 303 is set to take place on May 11, 2019, at the Madison Square Garden in New York City.
This event will feature a main event between Dustin Poirier and Max Holloway for the interim lightweight championship.
However, another highly anticipated fight on the card is the featherweight bout between Brian Ortega and Chan Sung Jung, also known as "The Korean Zombie".
Ortega, a rising star in the UFC, holds a record of 14-1-1. He is known for his aggressive fighting style and submission skills, having won 7 of his fights by submission.
Jung, on the other hand, is a veteran fighter with a record of 15-5. He is a former UFC Featherweight Champion and is known for his durability and his ability to withstand damage.
This fight is expected to be a close and exciting one, as both fighters are in the prime of their careers.
Ortega will be looking to prove that he is a legitimate contender for the featherweight title and become a star in the UFC. Jung, meanwhile, will be looking to re-establish himself as a top contender and potentially reclaim the title he once held.
The winner of this fight will likely face the winner of the main event between Poirier and Holloway, setting up a potential championship fight later this year.
