Dong Hoon Choi
South Korea
Flawless effort in easy win
Choi defeated Kiru Sahota via KO (punches) at 2:36 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Macau, China.
ANALYSIS
In a flyweight division in which few fighters display legitimate finishing power, Choi proved to be an emphatic exception on this day. He floored the gas pedal the second the opening bell rang and dominated for as long as the brief fight lasted. The multi-shot combination which put Sahota away was a thing of beauty. We should get a better read on Choi's long-term potential when he starts consistently fighting better competition during his upcoming full-time UFC run.
