Five years older, the Korean zombie, as he is known, returned to the octagon in February last year, after more than three years away from MMA. On that occasion, he knocked out Dennis Bermudez still in the first round. The South Korean, who already fought for the featherweight belt against Aldo, but was knocked out, has already beaten names like Leornad Garcia, Mark hominick, Dustin poirier, all via the fast lane.
