Chan Sung Jung chewed up and spit out an all-time great.
“The Korean Zombie” continued his resurgence in the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s featherweight division, as he brought down Frankie Edgar with punches in the first round of their UFC Fight Night 165 main event on Saturday at Sajik Arena in Busan, South Korea. A short-notice replacement for the injured Brian Ortega, Edgar succumbed to blows 3:18 into Round 1 and suffered just the second knockout loss of his 32-fight career.
Jung was merciless in his approach.
