If you found yourself amazed Dooho Choi went the distance in his memorable UFC 207 featherweight showdown with Cub Swanson, you weren’t alone.

Swanson himself was astounded by the amount of punishment Choi was able to withstand during the bout, which is widely considered the best three-round fight of 2016.

And while Swanson took the unanimous decision, he wonders why neither the referee nor Choi’s corner stopped the bout.

“I knew I was doing a lot of damage and I wish his corner would have thrown in the towel,” Swanson said on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour.
