#4. Shane Burgos vs. 'The Korean Zombie'
This matchup has "five-round war" written all over it. Shane Burgos is sitting at rank No.14 in the featherweight rankings.
Although 'The Korean Zombie' shouldn't drop down too much in the ranks after a title fight defeat, Burgos is much better than his ranking alludes him to be. Setbacks to Edson Barboza and the aforementioned Josh Emmett are the only losses for Burgos since 2018.
'Hurricane' was able to revert back to his winning ways when he defeated a surging star in Billy Quarantillo.
The Quarantillo fight was a risky one, but the 31-year-old is a company man and is willing to fight whoever the promotion sees fit. With big risks come great rewards, and a jump up to take on a two-time title contender is quite the gift.
Rankings aside, if anyone saw these two names slated against each other, they would mark the date and clear their schedule to witness this event.
They are two of the most dynamic strikers in the UFC and are looking to prove their standing in the division. What more could fans want in a Fight Night main event?
#3. Bryce Mitchell vs. 'The Korean Zombie'
The twister submission is so rare that fans will need to take a drink every time they sho it during the promo for this potential fight. In fact, it's so rare that it's only been done twice in the UFC.
Bryce Mitchell used it to defeat Matt Sayles in 2019 and 'The Korean Zombie' scored the first twister in the organization's history to defeat Leonard Garcia in 2011 for his debut performance.
15-0 at age 27, Mitchell's career impetus is towards a UFC title. Having just beaten Edson Barboza, he's very deserving of a leap up in competition. What's even more interesting is that this isn't the "striker vs. grappler" matchup that Mitchell has been a part of as of late. 'The Korean Zombie' is as great a grappler as he is a striker.
Having never been submitted, Jung is usually the hammer when it comes to grappling exchanges. This is an interesting fight because it will give clarity on where either fight fits in currently. Is it too much too soon for Mitchell? Is Jung on his way out? This match should be booked so fans can find out.
