On May 9, AOMG announced through their official social media channels that they have signed UFC fighter Jung Chan-Sung.

According to Jung’s official profile, he currently ranks number eight in the featherweight division and is known for his punching power, “granite jaw,” and aggressiveness. More, these qualities have earned the fighter the nickname “The Korean Zombie.” Further, the nickname is also a testament to his ability to return from injury and hiatus.

Last year Jung was forced out of a scheduled fight with Ricardo Lamas because of training injuries. Unfortunately, it was far more severe than expected. He sustained a complete rupture of both his ACL and MCL, bone bruising, and more. However, Jung persevered and had surgery. Later in an Instagram post, the fighter said that he does not blame the friend who hurt me because “I do not have enough skill.”

Additionally, following the announcement Jung took to social media. In a post, he informs fans that “nothing would change.” Indeed, from AOMG’s announcement, the label acquirement of Jung kicks off their “entrance into sportainment.”

Meanwhile, on May 7 the label hinted at a new member a few days ago. However, at that time many speculated that they would announce an exclusive contract with “High School Rapper 2” winner HAON.

This makes a ton of sense honestly. Chan Sung Jung is arguably the most notable Korean fighter in the UFC right now. Arguably the most notable ever. He scrapped for the featherweight title and had a great showing, and if not for mandatory military service he likely would have stayed in the title mix. His last fight he put a relatively big name in the featherweight division down like a sack of potatoes so it doesn't seem like he lost much.

If AOMG is serious about joining the sports entertainment world, expect them to try and sign Choi Dooho soon too, that'd be a big get for them and pretty much would make them Korea's ROC NATION which would be /hilarious/

Ah I'm so late to this post. I am disappointed not to have something music orientated, but this is honestly super cool and the expansion is impressive.
