What many expected to be a competitive battle proved to be a one-sided affair, as Dooho Choi put on a dominant showing against Nate Landwehr to open up the UFC 310 pay-per-view card.
"The Train" tried to get aggressive early, but Choi made him feel his power, including a hook that briefly stumbled Landwehr. "Korean Superboy" continued to land at will on the feet and scored a takedown after getting to the back of the American, who made it back to his feet with a little less than two minutes to go in the round. Choi's shots were clearly more effective.
The UFC Hall of Fame Fight Wing inductee continued to be crisper and cleaner with his shots as the fight entered the second round, even after Landwehr landed a spinning elbow. Choi managed to score another pair of takedowns, demonstrating complete control over Landwehr.
"The Train" looked to get to swinging away in the third round, but his opponent managed to return the fight to the mat. There, the "Korean Superboy" was able to put Landwehr away with elbow strikes in the crucifix position.
