Fresh from his Fight of the Year classic against Cub Swanson in December, „The Korean Superboy,“ Dooho Choi, will make his return to the Octagon in a UFC 214 bout against fellow featherweight standout Andre Fili at Honda Center in Anaheim on July 29.
UFC 214, the seventh UFC event in Anaheim, marks the promotion’s first card in the city since UFC 157: Rousey vs. Carmouche in February 2013.
One of the most exciting fighters in the UFC, pound-for-pound, South Korea’s Choi has dazzled since his 2014 debut in the Octagon, scoring three knockout wins before engaging in a thrilling three-round war with Swanson at UFC 206. The 26-year-old fell short of victory via decision that night, but he’s looking forward to his bout with Sacramento’s Fili, a Team Alpha Male member who owns four UFC wins, including a decisive win over Hacran Dias last October.
