Fans who’ve watched Hong-man Choi fight would say that his fighting skills just about edge out his dancing skills. But that’s only because the “Techno Goliath” celebrates his wins by breaking out his moves and if you take a look at his record, you’ll have the answer.
The monstrous Korean gained roles playing the beast that had to be slain by the heroes of Japanese MMA folklore like Fedor Emelianenko and Mirko CroCop. The former fighter essayed a better record in kickboxing, beating aging superstars like Semmy Schilt and Gary Goodridge.
The biggest and most celebrated win of Choi’s career was against former baseball star and muckraker Jose Canseco. American fans’ hearts spiked with schadenfreude after seeing Canseco being pummeled by the Korean giant. After all, it was Canseco’s autobiography that dragged the national pastime’s through the mud after claiming that the sport was fetid from steroid use.
Choi was in the news last year after it was suspected that his wins in ROAD FC were fixed. This came on the heels of reports that he was wanted by Korean authorities for fraud beacuse of an unpaid debt.
