Losing streak hits four
Light HeavyweightUFC
September 28, 2024
Jung lost to Oumar Sy via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Paris.
ANALYSIS
Jung deserves some credit here. Entering on a three-fight losing streak and hopelessly outclassed in terms of both speed and power, he continued to push forward in hopes of damaging Sy. It was a game plan that predictably failed miserably, but at least he tried to make something happen in a situation in which many other fighters would have sat back. The issue for Jung is that this will almost certainly be his last fight with the company. The 30-year-old hasn't won a fight since November 2021 and it's impossible to believe the UFC will run him back out there again.

Taking on Sy in September
Light HeavyweightUFC
July 11, 2024
Jung will fight Oumar Sy at a UFC event in Paris on September 28, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Jung will have his work cut out for him as he will take on the undefeated frenchman in his hometown of Paris. Jung will be looking to turn things around against Sy, as the six-foot-four Korean will head into the bout riding a three-fight losing streak dating back to 2022. Despite a reach disadvantage combined with the hostile crowd, Jung's stopping power cannot be overlooked, as 11 of his 15 career victories have come via KO/TKO.
Losing streak hits three
Light HeavyweightUFC
September 9, 2023
Jung lost to Carlos Ulberg via submission (rear-naked choke) at 4:49 of Round 3 at UFC 293 on Saturday in Sydney, Australia.
ANALYSIS
There was some confusion as to whether Jung tapped in the closing seconds (he did) or was on his way to dropping a lopsided unanimous decision, but it doesn't much matter either way. Facing a talented striker with big power, Jung was shockingly content engaging Ulberg in a back-and-forth kickboxing match most of the fight. Other than landing some damaging low kicks, Jung could get nothing going offensively. He finally went for a takedown with about three minutes left and landed it easily. It would have been interesting to see what the result might have been if Jung attempted to lean on his wrestling game a bit earlier. A loser of three in a row including two via stoppage, Jung's time with the company could be up.
Ulberg up next
Light HeavyweightUFC
June 11, 2023
Jung will take on Carlos Ulberg in a light heavyweight fight at a UFC event on September 9, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Jung will have a crack at breaking his losing streak in Septembers bout with Ulberg. The two fighters stand at the same height with Jung sporting a one-inch reach advantage. Jung also sports a fighting style that is very different from Ulberg's. Ulberg prefers to stay on his feet and box, but Jung will likely look to take the fight to the ground.
Drops decisions as big favorite
Light HeavyweightUFC
February 5, 2023
Jung lost to Devin Clark via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Undefeated (4-0-1) in his first five UFC appearances, it's all fallen apart for Jung his last two times out. He was knocked out by Dustin Jacoby in just over three minutes last July and wasn't the least bit competitive against Clark in this one despite entering as a -275 favorite. Jung's ineffectiveness on the feet seemingly forced him to defend takedown attempts from Clark the entire fight. Jung brings plenty of power to the table and not a heck of a lot else, so he's going to struggle to win fights in which he's credited with all of 18 significant strikes landed. The 29-year-old needs to do whatever is necessary to ensure he emerges with a win his next time out. Jung's job will likely be on the line.
To face Clark in Seoul
Light HeavyweightUFC
October 20, 2022
Jung will take on Devin Clark in a light heavyweight matchup at UFC Seoul on Feb. 4, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Jung is off to a 4-1-1 start to his UFC run after taking his first loss with the company against Dustin Jacoby back in July. It was the first time he had been finished via strikes in his professional career. He'll now look to bounce back against Clark, a lower-volume, wrestling-heavy fighter who is 1-3 in his last four trips to the Octagon. Jung will carry four-inch height and three-inch reach advantages into the cage.
