Dustin Poirier vs. Chan Sung Jung in featherweight division set for UFC on Fuel TV 3 – UFC news
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) recently announced a clash between Dustin Poirier and Chan Sung Jung for the upcoming UFC on Fuel TV 3, happening most probably on May 15, 2012.
Currently, the UFC management is coming up with exceptional bouts and fight cards, and has put forth a hefty schedule consisting of pay-per-views which will be televised by various media channels. Dustin will take on Chan in a three-round bout in the featherweight
division. UFC will most probably stretch its octagon at the Patriot Center situated in Fairfax, Virginia.
Apart from the aforementioned bout, the fight card consists of three other bouts that are not yet finalised by the UFC management, but have been informally announced and are totally open to changes. The light heavyweight division will be represented by a
clash between Brazilian Thiago Silva and Igor Pokrajac, who hails from Croatia. The brawl was actually scheduled between Silva and Brandon Vera but because the latter faced an injury which led him to forfeit the clash.
Donald Cerrone will take on Yves Edwards in the lightweight division, and the fourth brawl will be between Tom Lawler and Jason MacDonald in the middleweight division. The whole special edition is still to be decided and more encounters will be added later.
Dustin, nicknamed Diamond, has been in a total 13 bouts and has emerged victorious in 12. He has collected five of his wins by kayoing and five by submission. Apart from that the 23-year-old lad sits at number five rank in his division. In UFC 143, Dustin
collected a huge win against Max Holloway by submission; his mounted triangle armbar submission manoeuvre was honoured as the ‘submission of the night’.
Chan, on the other hand, infamous as the Korean Zombie, is not only a mixed martial art brawler but has also fought kickboxing style bouts. Jung has been in a total 15 mixed martial art bouts and came out as a victor in 12. The 24-year-old is a lethal knock
out specialist and has collected many prolific honours such as submission of the night, fight of the night and in his recent fight against Mark Hominick, the knockout of the night.
The bout between these two young surging brawlers will be epic and will definitely strengthen their UFC rankings in the featherweight division.
