Brian Ortega Dominates In Saturday's Main Event
4 years agoBrian Ortega put on a solid striking display, taking all five rounds in a unanimous decision over the Korean Zombie on Saturday. Ortega landed an impressive 127 significant strikes (129 total strikes) along with only going 3-for-10 on his takedowns. The complete-team switch for Ortega paid off, as he dominated an opponent known for his amazing striking. It looks like Ortega's next matchup will be for the featherweight championship against another tough striker in Alexander Volkanovski. It was nice to see Ortega improve on his striking after the tough outing a few years back to Max Holloway, which was the last time we saw him in action.
