10 South Koreans in the UFC? Getting those numbers up

South Koreans are super passionate about martial arts

Well that fight ended in the third when Tavares had the imaginary hand down to prevent the fight ending sequence for a minute and a half. That should count as a tap.

Almost got robbed..

Not the most eventful fight but I was impressed -- almost no one succeeds at taking down and controlling Tavarez

Can't wait for his turn on physical 100!

I feel like the Turtle would be top 5 at 170 and perhaps his conditioning would be better so he could use his style even more effectively. He has been outmuscled a few times by bigger guys at 185 but never got dominated and his defense on the ground and ability to get back up was always impressive. I don't think anybody would be able to control him at all at 170.

I really want the dude to blow up, he's nowhere near the popularity level of Dong Hyun Kim or Choo Sung Hoon (Sexy Yama) over here. They are massive stars in Korea, have been in a bunch of tv shows and their faces are all over the place lol. KZ will probably be the star of season 3, that's my guess anyways. Especially now that he's retired.

This is like being excited for Junior Tafa.

The dude moves like he is made of iron

Park is the epitome of "top 15-20". Solid enough to never get cut because he'll unlikely go on a 3 fight skid but he's so meh to watch.

Tafa is one of the more exciting fighters in heavyweight mma. Could be a great fighter but, for whatever reason, Samoan mma fighters/kickboxers are seemingly unable to take training even halfway seriously. Even something as simple as a daily run would do wonders for these guys
