Cub Swanson vs. Dooho Choi Set For UFC 206 In Toronto
A featherweight clash between two hard hitting 145’ers has been made for UFC 206 in December. UFC officials have announced that the No. 5-ranked Cub Swanson and No. 14-ranked Dooho Choi will meet later this year.
Swanson (23-7) is riding a two-fight win streak with his two unanimous decision wins over Hacran Dias and Tatsuya Kawajiri. Before embarking on his win streak, however, Swanson suffered two consecutive losses via submission.
Max Holloway most recently submitted Swanson in April of last year via guillotine choke, and Frankie Edgar in November of 2014 via neck crank at UFC Fight Night 57.
Choi (15-1) is looking as impressive as any other featherweight prospect right now, looking to continue his astounding eight-fight knockout streak when he takes center Octagon against Swanson.
‘The Korean Superboy’ has some tremendous power in his hands, with 12 of his 15 career wins coming via knockout. Can the 25-year-old continue his winning ways against Swanson?
Below is the updated card for UFC 206 in December:
(C) Daniel Cormier vs. Anthony Johnson
Poliana Botelho vs. Valerie Letourneau
Zach Makovsky vs. John Moraga
