UFC REVIEW JOSÉ ALDO vs CHANG SUNG JUNG

José Aldo, perhaps the number 1 pound for pound fighter in the world, put his title on the line against what many people consider the equal most exciting fighter in the featherweight division.
Both fighters started this one slowly, being patient and waiting to counter, a lot of feints were thrown and Aldo typically threw plenty of leg kicks not landing many though. The most exciting part of the round came from Aldo with a spinning wheel kick as it came to an end. José's round.
The Korean Zombie came out in the second a different person, pushing Aldo into backing up and landing good combos. The champ held firm for the rest of the round however, constantly getting the better of the standup and slowing the fast paced Jung right down. Aldo got a big takedown towards the end of the 2nd, holding position and winning the 2nd.
Jung had to get desperate coming into the 3rd, he had to have known he was down 2 rounds to nil, he was disappointing though, Aldo was the aggressor scoring with another big takedown and dominating The Korean Zombie for the majority of the round in that position. Aldo started to look gassed nearing the end of the round and Jung looked the better fighter heading into the championship rounds. Aldo 3 rounds to zip, but Zombie is coming.
Unfortunately Jung's shoulder dislocated early in the 4th and José Aldo charged in and got the TKO victory, an unfortunate end for The Korean Zombie, but Aldo remains the Featherweight champion
