Moicano believes that this fight is an opportunity to show fans exactly how exciting he can be inside the Octagon.
“I have to build my brand. It’s very good to be in the main event so that people can know me,” Moicano said. “A win over him is a big step for me in my career. I respect all these opponents but I have to make a brand for myself, so I have to fight more and I have to fight in main events so that people know me. It’s a good thing fighting against Korean Zombie.”
The last time we saw “The Korean Zombie” was at the UFC’s 25th anniversary show in Denver last November. That fight, against Yair Rodriguez, ended-up being the fight of the year. The concept of a challenging match-up with Jung excites Moicano. He even sees some similarities between himself and Jung.
Those similarities in style combined with the motivation to bounce back with a big win has this event primed for fireworks. Moicano plans to deliver for fight fans around the world.
