After more than three years away from the Octagon, Chan Sung Jung returned to the UFC in style, scoring an opening round knockout of Dennis Bermudez in the UFC Fight Night: Bermudez vs. Korean Zombie main event in Houston, Texas. The Korean Zombie survived getting rocked early in the fight before delivering a spectacular uppercut to put Bermudez away.
Bermudez’s first takedown was stuffed by The Korean Zombie. As Bermudez overcommitted, Jung went for a takedown which Dennis stuffed. A big right hand wobbled The Korean Zombie, but he still had his wits about him to continue to fend off Bermudez’s takedowns.
