'Korean Zombie' Announces Retiring After Defeat to Holloway

Korean UFC featherweight division fighter Chan Sung Jung, better known as "The Korean Zombie," has announced the end of his career after his loss to Max Holloway at UFC Fight Night 225.

Holloway knocked out Jung in the third round on Aug. 26 in Singapore.

Chan Sung Jung
I always aimed to be a champion when I first started the sport. I'm not here to be ranked third, fourth or fifth. I really believed I could beat him. But I ended up failing, so I don't think I have the opportunity anymore. So I think I'm going to stop fighting.

Jung, 36, last stepped into the octagon in April 2022 at UFC 273, losing to Alex Volkanovski by TKO in the fourth round. He has 17 wins and eight losses under his belt.

Holloway, 31, last fought in April 2023 at UFC on ESPN 44, defeating Arnold Allen by unanimous decision. He has 25 wins and seven losses on his record.
