February 5, 2017 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Chan Sung Jung spoke last night following his win over Dennis Bermudez at Fight Night 104. Some highlights are below:

On having doubts about whether he’d be successful in his return: “I’m human too, so there were times when I thought, can I keep up with the game, can I keep developing my techniques? Now, I feel like I’m about to cry.”

On the fight ending in the first round: “I’ve changed the way I think about the game of fighting, so I was actually expecting and planning for a five-round decision. But I thought if I can catch the knockout or submission, even better.”

On his win: “It feels really, really good, and I want to thank all the people that stood by me during that time off.”

On a possible title shot: “My goal is always to be the champion, and I think this fight has put me back in the game.”
