Dennis Bermudez feels fight with Chan Sung Jung was stopped 'a little bit early'

Russell Ess - February 6, 2017

After a three-and-a-half-year layoff from fighting, Chan Sung Jung did not skip a beat in his return to the Octagon on Saturday. Unranked after the long layoff with doing his mandatory military service for South Korea, Jung took on Dennis Bermudez, who stepped into the Octagon ranked #9 in the official UFC featherweight rankings. “The Korean Zombie” came out with a vengeance and knocked out Bermudez in the first round but “The Menace” feels that he could have recovered if he was given more time.

After a long stretch on the shelf, during which he fulfilled the two years of mandatory military service required of all South Korean citizens, “The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung is ready to return to the Octagon. Though he’s called for a comeback fight with our very own BJ Penn, it was announced yesterday that Jung will instead return to square off with Dennis Bermudez in the main event of UFC Fight Night 104 which takes place Super Bowl weekend. Ariel Helwani of MMAFighting.com was first to report that the Bermudez vs. Jung fight was in the works.

Russell Ess - May 21, 2016

When you think of a UFC fighter holding a spot in the Guinness World Records, you probably would believe it has something to do with mixed martial arts, or some kind of related physical activity. Not for this UFC featherweight.
