Chan Sung Jung has been ordered to complete mandatory military service in his native South Korea. It begins next week, and as a result, the 27-year-old won’t participate in any MMA bouts for the next two years. Injuries have kept Jung (13-4 MMA, 3-1 UFC) out of competition for the majority of the past two years. He’s fought just once since May 2012, but in the next two years, the UFC featherweight will spend even less time in the octagon. Jung announced the news Monday afternoon on his official Facebook account, and his manager Brian Rhee shared additional information with MMAjunkie.
