Talking about the fight, Choi will have a one-inch height and reach advantage over Caceres. It is a contest between good strikers. However, ‘Bruce Leeroy’ is more experienced than the Korean fighter.
Caceres lands an average of 4.10 strikes per minute and has a 60% striking defense, which is a concerning number for Choi. Even though the latter lands more vicious strikes, Caceres is adept at taking the fight to the distance.
Considering his submission wins, he might also dominate the Korean on the ground. It is going to be a close fight. However, the odds might fall in the favour of the American featherweight. If Choi is unable to find an early finish.
