“It’s going to be entertaining fight, a fast-paced fight, with a lot of pressure and forward aggression, and although we are on the prelims, I think fans should tune in for this fight because we are both going to bring it and not take a step back,” Nzechukwu said. “It’s not going to go three rounds; one of us is going to drop. I just want to bring the excitement.”

At 6’5” and with a reach of 83 inches, there aren’t many fighters with the physical frame of Nzechukwu. His size, reach and willingness to take the fight anywhere makes him a tough matchup for just about any fighter, and that’s why Nzechukwu believes he must impose his will on Jung to hand him his first UFC defeat.
“I know he has great striking and has underrated jiu jitsu and he showcased that in his last fight against William Knight. I think he’s a well-rounded fighter, and he’s a tough guy and a durable guy with a good chin. I just gotta go in there, push the pace and impose my will on him,” Nzechukwu said. “I just want to get the victory and keep building my legacy.”
