One of the gems of the Sengoku FW GP was the introduction to the masses of Korean fighter Chan Sung Jung. Jung is better known by the moniker given to him for his ability to keep walking through his opponents assault, The Korean Zombie. Jung has been on a bit of a break from MMA, and he has taken to the opportunity to work on his kickboxing skills by participating in the Euro based Kickboxing promotion. It's Showtime.
Love the intro music him:
Zombie faced off against Muay Thai practitioner Pajonsuk in a battle of contrasting styles. The bout ended on a DQ because Zombie delivered an illegal strike on Pajonsuk. The spinning backfist, while legal in K-1, is forbidden under the rules of It's Showtime. Regardless of the DQ, I'd love to see Zombi take a few more swings at the kickboxing thing to sharpen his stand-up for his MMA game. Check out video of the fight below.
