One of the side stories after UFC 273 was Chan Sung Jung’s post-fight interview with Joe Rogan. After losing via fourth-round TKO, a visibly dejected “Korean Zombie” spoke through a translator, who then said that the 35-year-old veteran is thinking about retirement.
Fans, however, later jumped in to say that the translator didn’t provide the full context of the interview. According to them, he left out a key statement where Jung admitted that he can no longer be a UFC champion.
They may be right, as it turns out, at least based on the “The Thrill and the Agony” video for UFC 273.
