Max Holloway vs. Korean Zombie headlines UFC event in Singapore on Aug. 26

Max Holloway got what he wanted.

The former UFC featherweight champion has been booked against fellow veteran Chan Sung Jung to headline the UFC’s return to Singapore on Aug. 26. The news was announced Thursday by UFC president Dana White.

Holloway (24-7 MMA, 20-7 UFC) respectfully issued “The Korean Zombie” a challenge after he beat Arnold Allen by unanimous decision in the UFC on ESPN 44 main event in April. Holloway said Jung (17-7 MMA, 7-4 UFC) is the only big-name fighter during his time that he’s yet to fight.
