I like that Goddard is giving more verbal warning prior to stopping it but this doesn’t look good for Frankie…

And there it was. The uppercut just too much after all that damage. Hard to watch for Frankie fans, but the Korean Zombie is having a later-career blossom.

Korean Zombie vs Zabit.

Wow! TKZ finishes Edgar in round 1! Frankie tried to hold on for a long time after being dropped but Jung eventually got the finish after a lot of answered strikes #UFCBusan

Woke up just in time to see the main event kinda bitter sweet always been a Frankie fan and love watching him fight but the Korean Zombie has been on fire since his return in 2017

Marc Goddard stops the fight. A dominant win for The Korean Zombie over Frankie Edgar.

Much respect to @FrankieEdgar for taking the fight on short-notice. Congrats to @KoreanZombieMMA on defeating one of the greats #UFCBusan

Korean Zombie is ready to fight for a title again. This man is on fire. Efficient and deadly. Frankie Edgar, respectfully, never stood a chance there.

UFC needs to find Cory Sandhagen a suitable opponent. Like, yesterday. He deserves clarity and opportunity.

After a hard victory, someone get TKZ some chapstick ASAP!!! Lips about to bleed more from dryness than the fight! Congrats to another legend in Jung, taking out a well respected legend in Edgar #UFCBusan

So we disregard Edgar always coming from behind the barrel in the past against Maynard, Ben Henderson (a loss I know), Aldo. He’s made a name for himself as being tough and technical as the smaller guy. So now all of the sudden we should stop fights at every hard hit? What? https://t.co/RG4GqtnsWl

Give me max vs zombie or give me zabit vs zombie since vok got a broken hand
