Max Holloway produced a stunning knockout of Chan Sung Jung at UFC Singapore on Saturday, before the “Korean Zombie” retired from mixed martial arts.
Former champion Holloway got the better of the 36-year-old across the first two rounds of the featherweight main event, nearly securing a D’Arce choke in the second frame. However, Sung Jung had his moments, wobbling the Hawaiian more than once.

A frenzied striking exchange at the start of the third round promised disaster for one of the two men, and it was Sung Jung who hit the mat face-first when Holloway landed a clean overhand right.
There were rumours that this clash with Holloway, 31, might be Sung Jung’s last fight, and that proved to be the case, with the South Korean removing his gloves after the bout, kneeling on the canvas, and bowing his head in a tearful goodbye to MMA.
