New strategy

It shouldn’t be long before we see Chan Sung Jung in the UFC again.

The Korean Zombie (13-4) hasn’t fought since losing to Jose Aldo in August 2013. The Brazilian finished him with strikes in the fourth round when he fell to the canvas in agony after dislocating his shoulder throwing an overhand right.

In 2014, Jung announced that he would be leaving the sport to begin his mandatory two-year military service in South Korea. However, judging by his Instagram account, he’s keeping one eye on the MMA world in preparation for his return.

After seeing the work Ido Portal did with Conor McGregor before his 13-second dismantling of Jose Aldo, Mr Zombie has decided to develop his own approach to bettering his own movement: fencing.

He mentions in the caption of the video below that this method could be the key to beating the newly crowned featherweight champion at his own game.
