Bill Algeo vs. Dooho Choi UFC in ESPN 60 preview
Algeo (18-8 MMA, 5-4 UFC) has a pattern of losing one and winning two in his last six fights. He enters his second fight in 2024 after a first-round TKO loss to Kyle Nelson. Earlier, he scored a unanimous decision victory against Alexander Hernandez and submitted TJ Brown. … Choi (14-4-1 MMA, 3-3-1 UFC) will be looking for his first win since December 2016. “The Korean Superboy” has failed to record a win in four straight fights, losing three and drawing with Nelson in his last appearance in February 2023. Before this rough patch, Choi was practically untouchable as the winner of 12 fights in a row.
Bill Algeo vs. Dooho Choi UFC in ESPN 60 Expert Pick, Prediction
Algeo is coming off an unfortunate layoff that was probably a little early, but “Senior Perfecto” is always someone who puts on a show, regardless of winning or losing.
The same can be said of Choi, although it’s difficult to know what to make of “The Korean Superboy” considering the inconsistency that has plagued his career over the past eight years.
While part of me would love to see Choi finally get back on track, I suspect this fight could turn ugly for him if he can’t pin Algeo sooner.
I will officially side with Algeo to survive the initial storm and finish in the second round.
