Prepare for a high-octane UFC Fight Night this Saturday as the legendary Doo Ho Choi looks to continue his career resurgence against the relentless Daniel Santos. While The Korean Superboy has found a second wind in his late thirties, Willycat is riding a massive wave of momentum that has him looking like a future contender. See our match prediction below.
The Korean Superboy enters the cage following a long period of inconsistency and injury. While he looked vintage in his most recent outing in December 2024, knocking out Nate Landwehr in the third round, that remains his only win in the last several years.
Despite that flash of brilliance, Choi is facing a different beast in Willycat, who is currently riding a terrifying four-fight winning streak. The Brazilian has been systematically dismantling his path through the rankings, most recently securing a second-round TKO over Joo Sang Yoo in October 2025.
Santos has found his groove at featherweight, mixing a 67-inch reach with a chaotic, high-volume striking style that keeps opponents drowning in deep waters. While Choi has the legendary "one-punch" power, the Brazilian's activity and clinch work are likely to be the deciding factors. For us, it’s a major reason why Santos will win this match.

Our Doo Ho Choi vs Daniel Santos Prediction
While the South Korean certainly has the power to turn out the lights, his lack of frequent cage time is a major concern against a rhythm-based fighter like Santos. Willycat has shown he can take a shot to give two, and his ability to mix in takedowns should break Choi's striking rhythm over three rounds.
Because of his relentless pace and recent finishing form, we expect the Brazilian to secure the win over The Korean Superboy. Hence, our Doo Ho Choi vs Daniel Santos match prediction is that Daniel Santos wins.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
