Durability issues remain

March 15, 2025
Choi lost to Kevin Vallejos via TKO (punches) at 3:09 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Choi lasted 96 seconds in his knockout loss to Steve Garcia last July, so in that sense, he's trending in the right direction. Of course, with losses in five of his last six fights dating back to October 2021, Choi's time with the company is likely coming to an end. Choi had virtually no durability issues earlier in his career, but each of his last three defeats have come via knockout. He simply hasn't been able to hang around long enough to generate any notable offense of his own. Maybe the UFC takes pity on a guy that has been on the roster nearly six years now, but the odds are against it.

Lasts 96 seconds in Vegas

July 20, 2024
Choi lost to Steve Garcia via TKO (punches) at 1:36 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Entering having lost three of his last four fights and with one victory dating back to June 2021, Choi played right into Garcia's hands and paid for it. Why you would will engage in a slugfest against an opponent with three straight knockout wins on his resume is beyond comprehension. The two men battled along the fence for a bit, at which point they separated, and Choi was perfectly content with trying to put Garcia away before he got finished himself. It didn't work out. Given his struggles in recent years and performance here, Choi is certainly no lock to receive another opportunity with the company.
Tough draw at UFC Vegas 94
FeatherweightUFC
May 28, 2024
Choi (undisclosed) will take on Steve Garcia in a featherweight matchup at UFC Vegas 94 on July 20, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Choi snapped a three-fight skid with a decision victory over Jarno Errens in August and was then scheduled to face Morgan Charriere the following April, but he withdrew from that fight due to undisclosed reasons. Now presumably healthy, he draws a tough matchup in Garcia, who is riding a streak of three consecutive stoppage victories, each within two rounds. Garcia also holds statistical advantages in striking volume, striking accuracy, striking defense and takedown average.

Choi is scheduled to face Morgan Charriere in a featherweight bout at the UFC's April 6 event in Las Vegas, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Choi bounced back from a three-fight losing streak with a win in August over Jarno Errens via unanimous decision. He'll now take on an opponent who dazzled in his UFC debut in Charriere, who scored a quick knockout victory over Manolo Zecchini in September.
