What they do well

No standout plus-mark on this card.

Where they leak

  • Timing & reaction

    Late on the read. High absorb or a leaking TD defense suggests the first move often belongs to the opponent.

  • Striking defense

    Defensive liability. Opponents land at a clip that turns every exchange into a finish window.

  • Punching agility

    Heavy or economical. Combinations are chosen, not sprayed — opponents can time the entries.

Scouting report

Chan Sung Jung “The Korean Zombie” is a 39-year-old Orthodox featherweight out of Su-Won, Korea, camped at Fight Ready. The tape read: pocket striker — porous pocket. Career mark 17-8-0 — 5 by KO/TKO, 8 by submission, 4 by decision. Fight IQ grades C (57).

What works. Durability is the standout at 63 (C+). Finishable. When this fighter loses, it is usually because something landed flush or the neck gave out. Ground game D on 0.74 TD/15 and 0.65 sub attempts. Striking defense D at 40% / 5.08 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility D (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction C on 70% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 1 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Timing & reaction is the soft spot (26, D). Late on the read. High absorb or a leaking TD defense suggests the first move often belongs to the opponent. Opponents who take away their first look and make them solve a second problem have historically been the ones who make this résumé leak. Losses lean decision more often than a highlight — the issue is usually control of minutes, not a glass jaw.

Recent tape (1 bouts): L Ortega (Decision - Unanimous R5). Form index negative over the last 1. Most of the loaded finishes happen before the deep water.
