Where To Watch: Volkanovski Vs. The Korean Zombie Tonight
Another UFC pay-per-view event is hitting Saturday night.
This time, UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski (23-1) will make his defense against Chan Sung Jun, “The Korean Zombie,” (17-6) in the main event.
Volkanovski was originally scheduled to face Max Holloway in a trilogy fight, but an injury forced Holloway out. Now The Korean Zombie, one of the promotion’s top featherweights, will get a crack at the title.
Bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling (23-1) will meet Petr Yan (16-2) once again in the co-main event. Yan seeks to snatch the title after being disqualified for landing an illegal knee.
