"The Korean Zombie" went for it, but severely paid the price.
As the Zombie approached forward, swinging away, Max Holloway caught him with a clean and vicious overhand right to get a third-round knockout at UFC Fight Night in Kallang, Singapore on Saturday.
After punching the exclamation point on the win, Holloway dedicated the victory to Maui, Hawaii, which has suffered through some of the deadliest wildfires in United States history this month.
"I can't even talk about the fight right now," Holloway, a Hawaii native, told ESPN in the Octagon. "The only thing on my mind is Lahaina, Maui. This one is for you guys."
Although "The Korean Zombie" had some shining moments in the fight, Holloway proved to be the sharper striker toward the eventual knockout victory.
After the fight, "The Korean Zombie," real name Jung Chan-sung, officially retired.
