Alexander Volkanovski puts on a clinic in successful world title defense at UFC 273

UFC featherweight world champion Alexander Volkanovski showed why he is the king of the 145-pound division following a technical knockout over Chan Sung "The Korean Zombie" Jung in the main event of UFC 273 on Sunday in Florida, USA.

The 33-year-old from Australia moved and struck his opponent at will from the very first round, landing more than 50% of his strikes. The Korean Zombie was game but was seemingly one step behind every step of the way.

Volkanovski also emerged on top whenever they tried to grapple, proving to be a puzzle that Jung never got to solve throughout the contest. Jung took a beating in round three and after taking a big right hand in the fourth, the referee halted the contest at the 0:45 mark of round four.

In the co-main event, Aljamain Sterling retained his UFC bantamweight world title against ex-world titleholder Petr Yan. He relied on his ground game to pacify Yan's striking, eking out a unanimous decision nod after five five-minute rounds.
