‘Korean Super Boy’ Doo Ho Choi set to return against Bill Algeo at UFC Fight Night event this July

Choi vs Algeo set

The news first broke courtesy of the always reliable Nolan King.

“Doo Ho Choi (14-4-1) is set to compete for the first time since February 2023. He’ll fight Bill Algeo (18-8) on July 20 in Las Vegas, multiple sources say. Story headed to @MMAJunkie.”

For Algeo, this serves as a real opportunity for him to make a statement. Ironically, his last outing also came against Kyle Nelson, which went down just a few weeks ago in Atlantic City.

While some would advise against a quick turnaround, this is a big fight against a notable name. Choi will understand the size of the task that lies ahead of him, but given what we know about both fighters, don’t be surprised to see some real action and a potential Fight of the Night.
