Impact Accepting this fight, his UFC debut, less than a week ago, Choinski displayed plenty of toughness and not much else. His mobility was compromised the entire bout due to the ridiculous number of leg kicks he absorbed. Choinski attempted to lean on his wrestling but was able to land just 2-of-11 takedown attempts. He also didn't display much offensive awareness in the rare instances in which he got Mederos in a dominant position. Toughness and grappling are often enough to succeed on the regional scene, but you need to bring more than that to succeed at the highest level and Choinski just didn't appear to have the requisite skill set to do so.
