Jung, widely regarded as one of the most exciting fighters in the sport, is coming off the 2nd-fastest KO in UFC history and pulled off the submission of the year for 2011. Poirier is the division's fastest-rising star, and known for his relentless power punching style, but his last two outings have earned him spectacular submission wins.

An extremely close matchup. Obviously im biased towards KZ, but I see this being a very exciting close fight, possibly a back and forth grappling match. I really dont know who wins, but it should be a five rounder....

Zombie and Barao are different weight classes

Poirier looks unstoppable but TKZ is a baus good match up.

Awesome fight but this stays standing and dustin punishes him for the whole fight. I love Korean zombie but dustin is a future title challenger and possible champ. Zombie will be the fan fav before and after this fight either way. Hope dustin starts getting the recognition he deserves the kid is an animal

I remember Dustin asking for this fight post fight, good for him he got the fight. I was thinking they would put the zombie up against Barao.
