“The Korean Zombie” walked away victorious at UFC on ESPN 25 , but the win didn’t come without some mid-fight adversity. According to his head coach Eddie Cha, Chan Sung Jung suffered a shoulder injury in the second round of Saturday’s main event. “Out of all of the UFC main events he’s had, this is the first one he’s had a decision,” Cha said on the ESPN+ post-fight show. “He’s kind of disappointed in it, but at the same time, he did pop his shoulder in and out.” The Korean Zombie's shoulder “popped in and out” during a takedown in the second round at #UFCVegas29 It's the same shoulder that was injured against Jose Aldo. pic.twitter.com/sOYPyKaqIo — ESPN MMA (@espnmma) June 20, 2021 Saturday wasn’t the first time Jung (17-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC) injured his shoulder in a fight.
