Max Holloway defends the Lightweight title!
Jung's KO resistence is out of this world. He did okay offensively early, but after he went healthbar-zero, he was a punching bag. But he hung in there for about 2 extra rounds despite that. (reminder, "damage caused" between 2500-4000 is a typical finish/KO).
Also, this being their 6th fight and they are 3-3, this is an intense rivalry.
