Following a nearly 3.5 year rest from the sport, Chan Sung Jung “The Korean Zombie” has done the impossible. Having shattered any remnants of conversation concerning potential ring rust, the returning contender has knocked out the number nine ranking featherweight in the UFC, Daniel Bermudez. Better yet, “The Korean Zombie” managed to do so within the very first round.
Having been compelled to complete a two year line of service in his home country of South Korea, “The Korean Zombie” has been away for quite some time. His most recent fight, before tonight’s stunning knockout victory, was a title shot against champion Jose Aldo. While that fight was back in August of 2013, it would appear that “The Korean Zombie” is picking up right where he left off.
