Twitter went absolutely nuts when UFC 281 had a double knock down (Video)
It was just seconds into the third fight on the UFC 281 card, a featherweight scrap between Seungwoo Choi vs. Michael Trizano when both fighters landed strikes that downed their opponent in the exact same second. And honestly, it was just a precursor to an absolutely wild round.
Eventually, it would be Trizano who secured the win with a brutal KO of Choi with just seconds left in the round.
It was Trizano’s final fight on his contract, and he was likely looking to make a statement, especially after missing weight. And that’s exactly what he did.
Unfortunately, he’ll be ineligible for a bonus due to missing weight.
This marks the third loss, in a row, for Choi.

“I was not going to be denied,” Trizano said during his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan. “I was going to go out on my shield, or carried out of here, I don’t care.”
