Following his lightning-quick knockout victory over Gavin Tucker, UFC featherweight Dan Ige spoke to ESPN MMA’s Marc Raimondi. In the interview, the 145 lbs fighter was asked about his future and what’s next for him.

Ige commented that the future is bright and claimed that he is still looking to improve his game even further. ’50K said, “I mentioned fighting the Korean Zombie and that I something about that fight you know no disrespect at all to Korean Zombie is a legend but that’s the fight. 

I am no matchmaker but that’s a hell of a fight you put us on a poster that’s just a killer fight that’s a great fight for the fans, it’s a great fight for the company.”

Chan Sung Jung is coming off a loss in his last fight. He got dominated by Brian Ortega for five straight rounds.

Ige feels ‘The Korean Zombie’ has had his time and now it’s his time. ’50K’ is looking to follow up his sensational display at the Apex by adding a huge win to his resume. Stopping a tough fighter in ‘The Korean Zombie’ will do the trick.
