"The Iron Turtle". That's what they call JunYong Park, and is part of the UFC middleweight division's deep end, fighting out of South Korea — 26 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.
He fights at a pace most of the division can't hold — 4.64 strikes landed a minute, every minute. By round three, opponents are usually fighting his fight.
The last fight went to Ikram Aliskerov (Decision - Unanimous) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
