Fighters react to Cub Swanson's incredible war with Dooho Choi at UFC 206
Cub Swanson and Dooho Choi put on one of the most memorable fights to date Saturday night, as the pair of featherweights engaged in a back-and-forth slugfest at UFC 206.
The fourth-ranked Swanson ended up walking away with the unanimous decision win but the fight was much closer than the scorecards indicate. The victory was still a very strong one for Swanson, who re-established himself as a top contender in the division with the performance.
The epic bout not only impressed the fans in Toronto, but also fighters across the UFC. Check out what they had to say about the “Fight of the Year” candidate.
