Yu Ju-sang, who is about to make his UFC debut on the world's best mixed martial arts (MMA) stage, was certain to win.
Yu Ju-sang will compete in the UFC 316: Devalishvili vs O'Malley 2 undercard at the Prudential Center in New Jersey on the 8th (Korea time) and face off with Zeka Saragi, the runner-up in ROAD TO UFC (RTU) Season 1 lightweight (70.3kg), in featherweight (65.8kg).
He is ready to make his debut in the major leagues. "He is a big hitter, but he has nothing to threaten me," Yu Ju-sang said. "It will be hard for him to beat me."
Yuju is considered the top dog. The former boxer is strong in light steps and unpredictable and creative attacks. He also boasts solid skills in grappling. He is expected to be able to play well in UFC.
Yuju Sang's opponent, Saragi, is a former Wushu Santa Indonesia champion fighter who boasts strong batting power. He left a particularly strong impression on domestic fans in the 2022 RTU season 1 lightweight semi-final, knocking out Korean veteran Ki Won-bin. In the UFC, he is down to featherweight, recording 1-1 losses. It is evaluated that grappling is relatively weak.
Yu Ju-sang signed a contract with UFC through UFC President Dana White's scouting program "Lukeing for a Fight" in December last year. President White chose the ZFN 02 competition run by "Korean Zombie" Jung Chan-sung after watching it remotely. Yu Ju-sang said, "It's hard to say in words," and added, "It felt like everything that had been difficult was rewarded because my dream that I wanted to achieve came true."
Yu Ju-sang's goal is to become a UFC champion. Since Jung Chan-sung's retirement, there is no top-15 ranker in Korea. Yu claims that he will surpass the ranker and become a champion. "If you watch my fight, you will have no choice but to fall in love," Yu said. "I will show you everything I have gained, so please cheer for me."
At the main event, UFC bantamweight (61.2 kg) champion Merab Dvalishvili will have his second defense match against "Sugar" Sean O'Malley. Devalishvili (19 wins and four losses) defeated O'Malley (18 wins, one draw and two losses) in a unanimous decision at UFC 306 in September last year to become the champion. O'Malley gave special training in the wrestling field, which was targeted during the first round in order to regain his title.
In the comedy event, two-time Olympic judo gold medalist Kayla Harrison will challenge UFC bantamweight champion Juliana Peña. If Harrison (18-1) beats Peña (17-5), she can establish herself as one of the greatest female fighting sports players in history. 온라인바카라
