UFC on ESPN 25 Results: Seung Woo Choi TKOs Julian Erosa in 1st round

 

SEUNG WOO CHOI (146)VS.JULIAN EROSA (145.5)

ROUND 1

A finish may materialize out of nowhere in this clash, when “Sting” Choi (9-3, 2-2 UFC) will try to sting the streaking Erosa (25-8, 3-4 UFC). Referee Mark Smith will be keeping a watchful eye on the proceedings, and fast-paced featherweights touch gloves before getting after it. A leg kick from Choi starts things off, and Erosa tries to respond but gets nailed with a right hand. Erosa wears it well, so Choi drills him with another that shakes him up for just a moment. Choi strings two destructive punches together, and Erosa’s nose is marked up already from a few blows. Erosa walks forward and gets off a body kick and then a left hand, but Choi is able to slip and counter. The South Korean slings a right hand, and a subsequent left hook knocks the American completely off of his feet. When Erosa clatters to the ground, he might have already be out, but Smith allows him a moment to get his bearings. “Sting” releases a stinging barrage of hammerfists, pounding on Erosa until Smith has seen enough. Erosa tries to argue the stoppage was premature, but when he finally clambers to get to his feet, he practically topples over and Smith has to catch him. The knockout is Choi’s first inside the Octagon, as his first two UFC wins came by unanimous verdict.
