The odds may be a product of the fact that Ortega most recently lost a decisive decision to Max Holloway, while “The Korean Zombie” scored a first round knockout in his last outing. The loss to Holloway was, however, Ortega’s only pro loss so far. He has finished every other opponent in the UFC so far. Jung was on the losing end of a highlight reel knockout last year, but bounced back with a first round KO of Renato Moicano in June of this year.
