Brian Ortega is baffled at how Chan Sung Jung is suddenly ready to compete. The pair were initially scheduled to headline UFC on ESPN+ 23 this past December in South Korea, but Ortega was forced out due to a knee injury. Instead, Jung faced former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar and finished the former lightweight champion in the first round . Since then, both Ortega and “The Korean Zombie” have been angling for a rebooking, and there was a confrontation between Ortega (14-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) and Jung’s friend and manager, Korean rapper Jay Park, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas while both were in attendance for UFC 248 in March. Ortega was unhappy with some of the things Park had said when translating Jung’s words, which included accusations of Ortega ducking him
