Main Card
Choi Seung Woo
Also known as “Sting,” Choi (10-5, 3-4 UFC) looks to arrest his two-fight losing skid and keep his UFC featherweight career alive. In his last fight against Joshua Culibao, Choi Seung Woo fought brilliantly against the Australian and even had a judge side with him after three rounds of heart-pounding action. Unfortunately, two other judges decided to side with Culibao to secure the victory. Six of his 10 wins were knockout and the South Korean looks to use his striking skills to beat Trizano and restart his career.
Michael Trizano
Michael Trizano (9-3, 3-3 UFC) had a good start since winning the Ultimate Fighter 27 Lightweight tournament. He extended his winning run with a split decision victory over Luis Peña. However, Trizano lost three of his last four fights, including two consecutive against Hakeem Dawodu and Lucas Almeida. In his last match, he fought toe-to-toe with the debuting Almeida but fell short as the 30-year-old fighter succumbed to a big punch by the Brazilian. Trizano looks to finally secure a victory and restore his career in the UFC lightweight rankings.
