Anderson Silva officially out of UFC 212 in Brazil

A featherweight fight with fireworks written all over it has been confirmed for UFC 214 as “The Korean Superboy” Doo Ho Choi will meet Andre Fili on July 29 in Anaheim.

The new fight was confirmed by UFC officials via the LA Times on Wednesday.

Choi (14-2) will make his return after a “Fight of the Year” against Cub Swanson last year, when the two featherweights went to war for 15 minutes in an epic slugfest for the ages.

Prior to that loss, Choi had reeled off three straight wins in the UFC — with all of those fights finished by knockout or TKO in the first round.
