Seung Woo Choi recently confirmed he would be fighting soon and he has found his way onto one of the biggest cards of the year. The Korean featherweight will take on Mike Trizano in New York on November 12th.
The fight is set for UFC 281 which takes place at Madison Square Garden. It looks like a make or break moment for both men because they are coming off back to back losses.
Choi (10-5) is coming off a highly entertaining split decision defeat to Joshua Culibao at UFC Singapore. Both men had their moments but the Australian seemed to have clearly won rounds one and two.
Trizano (9-3) is a New Yorker and is sure to have the crowd at Madison Square Garden on his side. He won TUF 27 but was last seen losing to Lucas Almeida at UFC Vegas 56.

Best of the rest
The card will be headlined by a middleweight matchup pitting champion Israel Adesanya (23-1) against challenger Alex Pereira (6-1). The Brazilian might be lacking in MMA experience but he holds two wins over the current UFC 185lbs king from their kickboxing days.
The event will also feature Molly McCann (13-4) who takes on Erin Blanchfield (9-1), another New Yorker. The English flyweight is riding a three fight winning streak and has earned bonuses for her last two victories while the American has won all six of her UFC fights.
