UFC Busan Weigh-in Results: All Fighters Make Weight


The final Ultimate Fighting Championship event of the year takes place Saturday as UFC Fight Night 165 goes down in the Sajik Arena in Busan, South Korea.

The event is fittingly headlined by "The Korean Zombie" Chan Sung Jung, who has yet to fight in his native country since 2008. He will be facing another featherweight mainstay in Frankie Edgar, who took the bout on short notice after Brian Ortega suffered a knee injury. Jung (15-5) is coming off a dominant first-round TKO over Renato Carneiro earlier this year, whom he dispatched in under a minute. Jung had no issues making weight, and took full advantage of the one-pound allowance by coming in at 146 pounds.

Edgar (23-7) is still penciled in to make his bantamweight debut on Jan. 25 against Cory Sandhagen, so it's clear that "The Answer" is looking to stay busy despite being 38. Edgar last fought in July, where he lost a lopsided decision to then-UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway. The American is looking to bounce back in a major way before dropping down to 135, and ever the professional, Edgar has no trouble making weight, also coming in at 146 pounds.

The co-main event sees an intriguing light heavyweight clash between Volkan Oezdemir (206) and Aleksandar Rakic (206). Oezdemir (16-4) had dropped three straight bouts to top competition before knocking out Ilir Latifi in August. Rakic (12-1) has not lost a match since his pro debut back in 2011, and will look to notch the biggest win of his career against "No Time."
