Yair Rodriguez’s KOTY of the Korean Zombie was perfectly timed

In the original 1968 version of the Night of the Living Dead, the only way to kill a zombie was to shoot it directly in the head. Otherwise those undead bastards just kept coming. On the 50th Anniversary of that movie — as well as the 25th anniversary of the Ultimate Fighting Championship — Yair Rodriguez got that memo at the eleventh hour. During one last skirmish in his 25-minute scrap with the Korean Zombie, Rodriguez ducked out of the way of a punch and upsprang an elbow right into the black spot on Chan Sung Jung’s chin.
